The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

"This f/x-heavy third adaptation of the Christian-themed fantasy series feels routine and risk-averse in every respect, as if investment anxiety had fatally hobbled its sense of wonder."

"All the wonders of a writer's imagination can conjure up and a filmmaker can translate onto the screen are captured in the Narnia series. The children for whom these films are made will hitch their own imaginations to the film and fly into Narnia land"

"A solid instalment of the Narnia chronicles that should keep its young fans happy"

"While this film is the weakest of the three, these stories are so fantastical and memorable, the books so beloved, that The Dawn Treader is still a good vessel to board for kids of all ages."

"After slipping badly with the second installment two years ago, the Narnia franchise does a full-on belly flop with this third."

"The Chronicles of Narnia will never have the prestige or pretensions of the Potters or the Rings, but these films are still an enjoyable way to pass a couple of kid-friendly hours."
