Summoned back to the land of Narnia, the Pevensie children, Susan (Anna Popplewell), Edmund (Skandar Keynes), Peter (William Moseley) and Lucy (Georgie Henley), find that the magical realm has fallen into ruin under the rule of the evil King Miraz (Sergio Castellitto). Allying with his nephew, Prince Caspian (Ben Barnes), the rightful heir to the throne, the Pevensies set out to bring down Miraz and free the native Narnians from his tyrannical rule.
A far darker trip to Narnia than its predecessor - 2005's The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe - Prince Caspian ups the action ante with some earth-shattering set pieces and truly astonishing creature effects. With great support from Eddie Izzard as chivalrous mouse Reepicheep and a star-making turn from newcomer Barnes, Prince Caspian is a hugely satisfying sequel and one of the finest fantasy films of 2008.
