The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (2010)
This was my favorite book out of the whole series. I read it before my oldest was born, so over 5 years ago. I don't remember a lot of the details, but I do remember I enjoyed it immensely.
The movie was great. I thought they did a wonderful job casting Eustace. He was such a pain in the butt, but, as usual, he comes around in the end.
The storyline was fun and exciting. Adventure around every corner. The computer-generated graphics were great. The books were originally created for a middle grade audience, and I think they appeal very well for that. The films could be all right for that age. It all depends on how sensitive your kids are. My kids, 3 and 5, watched it, and the only thing that scared the 5 year old was the humanish bulls (and they are the good guys!).
Even though it is geared for a younger audience, it is still entertaining for adults. The creature at the end is a little creepy, but not overly so. If you enjoy action adventure and this series, I think you'll like this movie. I definitely recommend it.
Since my family was gone this weekend, I had a lot of time on my hands. Besides this movie, I watched some older films. I watched Slither (2006) and Jason X (2001). Both highly entertaining and fabulous films. It was a very relaxing weekend!
