The Gospel According to Prince Caspian

princecaspian-1.jpgWith the Prince Caspian movie coming out soon. I had to remind myself of the story of Prince Caspian. Still set in Narnia, it doesn't stick in my mind like The Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe. Prince Caspian was summarised as follows:

Plot: Some 1600 years later Miraz, the brother of Caspian IX, usurps the throne, suppresses all knowledge of Aslan and Narnia's history, and forces the faithful remnant in the land into hiding. The original four children are drawn back into Narnia and find the land in ruins. Meanwhile, through some humble Narnians, Prince Caspian, the rightful heir to the throne, discovers the true story of its beginnings and resolves to regain the kingdom. As he and the children are brought together by Aslan, they begin the fight to liberate the land. Key Idea: Apostasy and Restoration. Over time the nation has forgotten and wandered away from its true roots, and those who have assumed power actively suppress knowledge of that truth. Despite this, the truth is passed on courageously by some faithful ordinary people, who come together to fight against Aslan's enemies, until his authority over the land, and its rightful human ruler, are restored.

Southern Cross Movie Review 

As for the movie, in Australia it got an "M" rating, in America it got a "PG" rating and is described as a PG Lord of the Rings with bloodless battle scenes. We are still debating whether the boys will see it....


Go Aslan!
