Faithful in spirit to the original, this spectacular movie overwhelms its cast with its special effects and is short on mischief and magic.
JM Barrie's classic story has given us a so-so Disney cartoon (see above), Spielberg's positively criminal Hook, and... read more on Time Out
This version of the classic tale of Peter Pan is quite simply
perfection. The movie isn't just about Neverland or a boy in green who flies, it's about innocence and the first time you fall in love.
Jeremy Sumpter portrayed Peter Pan really well. He put a lot of emotion in the character and gave us the other side of Peter Pan. The side that feels and isn't just about having fun. Rachel Hurd-Wood is an amazing actress. She put a lot of feeling into Wendy's character. The whole innocence thing and showing her feelings towards Peter, was very well done. It's also nice to see that this time Wendy doesn't just sit on her behind and let the boys fight, she knows how to handle a sword or knock someone out.
The supporting cast were really good. The Lost Boys and John and Michael brought the fun to the film, Tinkerbell was great, Hook/Mr Darling was excellent in both roles and Mrs Darling brought a sweetness and tenderness to the film.
The legacy of Peter Pan is everlasting. The next generation will love this glorious story as much as I do. This movie isn't only for children; it's for everyone young, free, and adventurous at heart. Peter Pan 2003 with no doubt is one of the best novel adaptations of all times.
Absolutly the very best interpretation of the story so far. It captures the frighting transistion of having to grow up in a way that is sensitive and charming. The fantasy aspect of the film is brilliant. The mermaids are not sweet creatures and the fairys have attitude. Captain Hook is funny frightening and sexy. This film crosses the boards from children to adults and I highly highly recommend it.
It's a difficult age: going into his fifth year at Hogwart's, young Potter is at the mercy of his hormones. He's having trouble sleeping, the Dursleys want no more to do with him, and when the Ministry for Magic threatens to expel him from school after an unlicensed public display of sorcery, it feels like the whole world is against him. That threat is averted with the timely intervention of Dumbledore (Michael Gambon). But the Ministry refuses to accept Harry's claim that He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Na Read more
