They aren't improving as the films go on!
19 December 2010
This film seemed like the film where many challenges would be encountered, obstacles to overcome and to make a huge epic spectacular of it all. But, it didn't measure up to what i would expect from an adventure movie at sea would be like. The mission felt too easily accomplished, they have to find the swords of the lost kings to bring peace to Narnia, so when they started their journey it was like: arrive at an island, heres a sword, move on over and over again. There was no "meat" to the adventures. Plus i felt Georgie Henley (lucy) and Skandar Kenyes (Edmund) were quite shallow in acting, during the climatic parts Edmund would shout but not convey any emotion in his performance. The boy who played Esutace was really good. In all fairness the last epic scene was amazing plus, at least there was more fantasy to the film the the previous Narnia film. But still, it feels that so far with each new Narnia film, they lose that quality which should make it amazing. The first one had the family feel to it and it was action packed and had emotion in, the second lacked that family feel but had substance to the plot but this one has gone slightly down as it just felt it lacked emotion and substance. Well, hopefully they can redeem themselves with the future Narnia films
