Saturday Cathy and Mikey and I went to see Prince Caspian with our friends John and Sheri. We loved it! The scenes seem visually bigger, the battles are more exciting without becoming gory, and the themes are a bit more subtle and grown-up, just as the children are more grown-up. I found it a tiny bit distracting that the child actors are clearly more than one year older than they were in the first installment (the story happens one year later), but that's how movies work. It takes time to make the movie, and you can't ask kids to quit growing up!
I posted some thoughts about the movie's themes on my "Christian Stuff" blog (if you weren't aware, this is the "family stuff" blog, although there is often a little bit of overlap).
