This epic, family, adventure film is the third movie in the famous Chronicles of Narnia series. Following right in line with the books written by the stupendous C.S. Lewis, this movie is just a bountiful a cornucopia of adventure and fun. It takes place in the world of Narnia once again, filled with wonder, majestic creatures, frightful journeys, and interesting characters.

It starts off where the previous movie, "Prince Caspian", left off. Lucy(Georgie Henley) and Edmund Pevensie (Skandar Keynes) return to Narnia with their cousin, Eustace (Will Poulter). Lucy and Edmund are of course thrilled to be back in Narnia, their loved land. There they meet Prince Caspian (Ben Barnes) and discover that this world that they love, Narnia, is in major distress. The story continues as they endeavor on a journey on the sea to help Prince Caspian on his quest to find the "seven lost lords". They travel across the ocean aboard the royal ship, The Dawn Treader, with the beloved Prince Caspian and Reepicheep.

Along the way they as they have to stop to tend to the ship, they take a total of three breaks. During the first they stop at the Lone Islands. They thought these Islands were still Narnian territory, but they were indeed wrong. Lucy, Edmund, and Eustace have to battle their way through being taken in the slave trade that now overrules the Lone Islands.

After making it out by the skin of their teeth, they travel on to another island where Eustace wanders off and stumbles upon a dragon. This turns to an interesting turn of events for Eustace! From their they eventually continue on other islands, finding more treasures and strange peoples. They encounter mighty dragons, mysterious camps of dwarfs, mer-people, and a small band of lost, curious warriors before reaching the edge of their world.

On average the movie has a decent rating between 3-4 stars out of 5, depending on the review you may be reading. It once again features Georgie Henley, Skandar Keynes, and Ben Barnes as returning main characters. It is a great tale full of adventure and thrill great for any one of any age. This movie is rich in magic and wonder. It is enchanting and enthralling, gripping viewers attention and glueing their pupils to the screen.

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader was released in December of 2010. It is directed by the likes of the great Michael Apted. It is only rated PG and is 113 minutes long. This is a definite must see movie for you or anyone you know!
