The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

Overall, the film was cute. Parts were cute, parts were funny, parts were really really sad, parts were epics, but a lot of parts were "meh." The movie of course hella deviates from the book, cuz seriously, there's not much IN this book. However, they got a LOT of little details right, which made me happy.

Though the costumer part of me cried as I watched all of the kids rolling around in grass, rocks, and forging rivers in SILK VELVET.

The music WAY less than impressed me; it felt completely recycled from the first movie. I was expecting an awesome remix/rescore mixed with the new things for The Battle... not for them to just replay The Battle.

Reepicheep, however, was AWESOME. Eddie Izzard didn't give him enough bravado swagger, but he was still made of win.




Okay, first off: Peter, you're just a dumb shit. A very much hotter dumbshit now, but WOW, you fucked up royally. I mean, I suppose he's meant to, but... WOW. One hell of a fuck up, dude, How to nearly get you, your siblings, and Caspian killed while succeeding in killing HALF YOUR ARMY. You fail.

On that note, the whole idea of invading Miraz's castle in the first place. WHAT?? WHY? Not in book!

And continuing to rag on Peter: picking fights with kids in London?? You were supposed to be the mature one who learned nobility and honor from Narnia, not picking fights because someone bumped into you!


Next let's move on to Susan: I can't believe I'm saying this, but you weren't snobby enough. Not bossy enough, either. And even though I was TOTALLY cheering you on and hoping it would happen, the entire Susan/Caspian romance going on? WHAT? Caspian can do way better than you. You kiss him then are like "kthnxbai" and just leave him. Bitch.


Lucy and Edmund? *Thumbs up* Great job, you two.


And JADIS?? SRSLY? WHY. I understand why she was put in; blah blah temptation blah blah, and I was very proud that it was Edmund who "killed her," but... Bah.


Andrew didn't do such a good job explaining why exactly Caspian was running away in the first place; it also would have been good to explain that Telmarine is the land below Narnia, for non-Narnianites to have a nice geography lesson. I mean, you said it.. but it wasn't clearly spoken or explained until WAY later. Or the fact that Miraz was the uncle who raised Caspian.


Ben Barnes... *girlish sigh* Fake Spanish accent was hot, even though you kept dropping it at times. And I really wanted you to kick Peter's ass. High king or not, he's being a whiney brat. Can't wait for Dawn Treader. :-D


I only really caught two bad CGI moments where you were like "Oh god! Bad CGI." But the animals looked WAY better.

And MUSIC, WTF. Music with lyrics before the movie even ends = NO. Just... NO.


I honestly don't know if I want to go see this one again. I felt like one was enough.
