THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER (2010)


This series of movies got off to a good start with "The Lion, The Witch, & The Wardrobe", but the follow up just didn't have the same magic or style to it. The third installment declines ever so slightly. The pacing is fine, but the characters and story just get glossed over so quickly to get to the next scene. All of these movies have religious over tones to them, but this is by far the one that shows it the most. The movie is satisfying enough, but it just can't conj our up the same mystique as the original did a few years ago.


Edmund, Lucy, and their cousin travel to a peaceful Narnia this time and they are quickly picked up by King Caspian on his ship "The Dawn Treader". They set off to find the lords that never returned home. That's where their adventure starts.


I liked this movie enough to not warn you away from it, but it's not a must see. If you've read or seen the previous movies than you might want to rent this one.
