One year after their return from "Narnia" the four Pevensie children are summoned back. They arrive to discover everything has been destroyed and the land divided - humankind and animals no longer co-exist - under the autocratic rule of the nasty king "Miraz" (Sergio Castelitto) who murdered the previous king and usurped the throne from the rightful successor Prince "Caspian" (Ben Barnes). A great supporting cast including Peter Dinklage, Warwick Davis and Pierfranceso Favino help the kids and the Prince do battle - alongside a rather deferential but feisty vocal contribution from Eddie Izzard as "Reepicheep", the chivalric mouse - to restore the proper order. It's not got as much going for it as the first film in the series; the story isn't quite so engaging - but again the dialogue, scenery and score all contribute to a thoroughly enjoyable family fantasy adventure that relies much more on the quality of the story than on extensive use of CGI.
