Best film so far, with a little spanish flavor in it.

Kid fantasy, is what making wave this days:
Eragon, the searcher, but non of them couldn't reach the hype to the Harry Potter film. But when a particular film from 2005 premier in December, that involve a lion, witch, and the wardrobe.
Well ye don't get a fable, but a epic. Now a not so sequel, but a follow up, comes, and this time the kids ain't the stars but a young Spanish(of course he's British theater actor)prince.
Here's my sound of the horn of a review:

A century have passed, and Narnia land have been torch by the arrival of the Telmarine, that have exiling all mystical beast of the land(that count, centaurin, dwarfs, goat people, minotaur, ogres, etc,). But when the son of King Miraz is born, he order the dead of he's nephew who's the rightful heir to the throne, prince Caspian(Ben Barnes) Help by he's professor, he escape to the woods, where he blow the horn. While back to the real world Susan(Ana Popplewell), Edmund(Skandar Keynes), and little Lucy(Georgie Henley), make their way, to the subway. But when a fight broke, involving Peter(William Moseley), cause he wasn't to be taken seriously. But when their world change, they re transported back to Narnia, only to find ruins. So they make their way to find Aslan.
Meanwhile Prince Caspian is taken refuge with a dwarf n badger, where take him to meet up with the others narnian, where they put him in trial, for what he people have done, and taken.
So the Prince promise them, their land back, if they help him take back he's crown, and help of the Pevensie siblings, is time to act, and return the Telmarine prince to the rightful throne. but when problems ab rum, when a clash of disagreement comes between Peter n the Prince, their chances to win, seem hopeless.
Will they work together?

First of the Prince himself make a very dashing star, that can make a senior women droll over. This time the kids don't act that much, but in the case of William, struggling to be a man was a great star, especially that argument he have with the prince. and this time we get to see Ana with the bow in action finally. And they say the spanners can act evil tell that to Sergio Castellitto, playing King Miraz, with just having that beard he very well be the captain hook of the story. But the one that i describe it as the scratch(of ice age) go to a swashbuckling mice call Reepicheep, that almost take the movie, but is a fun character to follow. And of course Liam Nesson is back to reprise he's role as aslan.

Coming from the director of the 1st shreck movie, he do justice , when it come to the visual, i mean there places that can be compare to another epic movie 3rd harry potter film, with great landscape, great wide shot to the Telmarine castle. But enough of that, lets talk about the fx, this time they gave all to bring the mystical beast great touch est to the real hair of the minotaur, to the human body of the centaurs, but beside there the animals are all cg. But of course the true delight of the fx's go to water creature, that can't be compare to the water horses of the 1st LOTR.

But the difference to the 1st is, this time their dead, from the creatures to the beast, they didnt stop to make it more real, especially the fight between Peter and Miraz. Far non, this ain't a Pg film. Now there something that i got to point out the battle armours of the Telmarine have so much influences to the Spanish conquistador, specialty, is they look straight out of a Don Quixote look. What i real like of the film, is they tone of the enemy, who they were, cause most of this actor that play them are all Spanish, and some Mexican too. So this is a very unique thing coming from a fantasy film. Hey i m Mexican i know my history.

the problem that i had with the 1st , there were great storytelling, but little lets acting, this time they done right, so there is a perfect film.

So, if weren't satisfy with last weekend race, if you know what movie i m talking about. then let Disney fill you up with a finally great epic n fantasy movie. And give yourself, a little bit discovering to another culture, especially when is European. Go and explore the world of Narnia.

next stop lets meet a man that travel the world with a whip.
