HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE CHRONICLE OF NARNIA 3
As war rages across England, Lucy (Georgie Henley) and Edmund (Skandar Keynes) have moved in with their uncle, while enduring the pestering presence of their snotty cousin, Eustice (Will Poulter). When the magical land of Narnia requires their return, the trio is pulled back into their lost kingdom, arriving on the Dawn Treader, a massive ship belonging to Prince Caspian (Ben Barnes). Learning of an exceptional evil that necessitates the collection of seven royal swords to eradicate, the team sets sail for the edge of the world, bringing along mouse soldier Reepicheep (voices by Simon Pegg) for protection. On this journey, the group is haunted by their fears and envy, exploited by the powers of a dark island while Eustice, struggling to learn the rules of Narnia, is accidentally transformed into a dragon.
Once the gang busts up a slave colony and kicks off the hunt for the swords, the excitement of the film deflates rapidly, with the script quickly weighed down by the needs of adaptation, creating little moments for all voyagers involved to keep them busy. It's a question of maturation and vanity for Lucy, an internal struggle with heroism for Edmund, leadership blues for Prince Caspian, and general pissing and moaning from a disorientated Eustice. Pausing the special effects kills the established oomph, bestowing tedious exposition to actors who aren't skilled enough to make their transformations interesting, led around by an overwhelmed Apted, who shows a shocking disregard for metered reaction. If it isn't a slack-jawed, bug-eyed close-up of wonder, it's not in this movie. A hardcore demonstration of obnoxious behavior emerges from Poulter, who wildly overplays his role as the runt of the Narnia litter. The young actor is pure agony to watch, shrilly stomping around the frame without a leash to make points of discontent that demand a more refined touch of humiliation. Poulter's scenes are simply unbearable, rendering Eustice's journey from brat to fire-breather something to dread, not enjoy.
Cursed with a bothersome 3D overlay (placing annoying sunglasses on ace cinematographic work from Dante Spinotti) and ho-hum monsters (an attacking sea serpent looks pulled directly from "Predator"), "Dawn Treader" has many obstacles to hurdle before it finds an ending. Mercifully, there's a tone of finality here, at least for most of the characters. Barring a box office disaster, the franchise will live on, albeit in the clammy hands of flared-nostril wuss Eustace.
Aslan, take me with you!
