It was superbly done, well acted, and the Narnian creatures looked even better than they did in the first movie. The story is incredible, so they have a lot of good material to work with. Our entire family really enjoyed it. They took a lot more liberties with the story line in this movie than they did with the first one, mainly to make it more linear, instead of the huge flashback of the dwarf's narrative to the kids at Cair Paravel.
