And I feel that all the five characters - Peter, Susan, Edmund, Lucy and Caspian - could be more developed. There were only short scenes here and there where the personality of the characters were being portrayed. Well, High King Peter seemed to lose his charm in this sequel, with his weakness and personal ego being exposed. King Edmund came out as the stronger one, with his faith in his sister's words that Aslan was alive and his stand against the seduction of the White Witch. Queen Susan was more skillfully and much braver. Though she certainly is undergoing her phrase of adolescence, with her love interest being none other than Caspian. Queen Lucy had a minor role in this sequel. Her main contribution was her faith in Aslan and her search for his return. I must admit though, the scene where she stood alone on the other end of the bridge, with all the Termarines being afraid to advance forward, while she then took out a small knife was pretty amusing.
Well, after 145 minutes in Narnia, I was transported back to "our world". As I left the cinema, I can't help but yearn to visit the land of Narnia once more. However, the next visit will be a long time away with the third part, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, being scheduled to be out only in 2010. And High King Peter and Queen Susan will not be there anymore. Only King Edmund and Queen Lucy, together with their cousin, will once more return to the magical land of Narnia.
