I went to this film tonight with my 17 year old son. He loved it - I loved it. I read these books when I was a kid. He read these books when he was "a kid". We were both excited when we heard the series was being made, and really enjoyed "the Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe". Sometimes, sequels don't measure up.... but not Prince Caspian! This movie delivers in every area you could desire! The characters of the four children "the Sons of Adam & Daughters of Eve" are still the same. Yet, at the same time, they are struggling - it's hard going back to "reality" after being a king or queen, and then once back in Narnia, they are teenagers, not "heroes of legend". Edmund has really grown, and now Peter is struggling to define himself as a man. Susan is becoming a young woman. Lucy is so much taller, but still has that sweet, innate wisdom. It's wonderful the way the screenwriters used humor to illustrate several important issues. And they brought out C.S. Lewis' Christian values without hitting you over the head with them. Some of the battles scenes might be quite intense for some younger children. Overall, it was a fantastic, amazing film. Brilliant, as they say in the UK.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
