Review:

So, we get to enjoy a bit more of the magic of Narnia on this one, which is brilliant. Caspian escapes and has his little adventure, but everything seemed weird. It felt like he (C.S. Lewis) as trying to extend the story with a bunch of non-important things, and here's a few of them: At one moment, Caspian was at war with his uncle's armies and he needed the help of the Pevensee, but they were sitting casually, talking about Caspian's story. Also, while traveling towards Caspian, they took a detour which ended up only being a plot to give more length to the story, since it wasn't needed and, in the end, didn't add anything to the story. It was epic, but most of the story seemed... Forced.
