VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER

1/01/2011 | No comment

title: VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER
year: 2010
cast: Georgie Henley
rating: **

Sadly, the most action-packed of the C.S. Lewis Narnia books is a boring film as the titular DAWN TREADER... a gallant sea vessel with King Caspian, Lucy, Edmund, an annoyingly miscast Eustace Scrubb and a crew of humans and creatures we never really care about... sails from one bland island to the next. What are they searching for? It's never quite clear. Either is any particular villain. With the exception of a whispering green mist, there's nothing to fear or fight; except a CGI sea serpent which, compared to the rest, is a relatively quick round within a long, sluggish bout.
