5.0 out of 5 stars You'll Want to Watch it Again and Again, May 18 2004

This review is from: Peter Pan (Widescreen) (DVD)

In November 2003, I was stoked to learn that Peter Pan would be re-told in the way that author J.M. Barrie intended. The good, the bad, and the ugly. Peter Pan is not just some cutesy tale. There is meaning and feeling, which makes this fantasy the best of all fantasies. I saw the film three times in the theater, and I don't regret one penny I spent seeing it.

While it's fantastic on the big screen, it's still fantastic on the small screen in your living room. Most people know the story-- Peter Pan is a boy who refuses to grow up. He meets Wendy, Michael, and John Darling, whisks them away to the magical Neverland and have rip-roaring adventures together. Never did I think a film could capture the book so well. This movie does exactly that, and nothing could be better.

It's colorful, it beautiful, and the flying looks real. They're not on strings, Peter Pan is not played by a girl (Thank God!), and Tinkerbell is not just a flashlight on a wall. Peter is played by the marvelous Jeremy Sumpter, who is also in the film "Frailty." He proves himself in both movies. He's the most amazing Pan you'll ever have the pleasure to see. Newcomer Rachel Hurd-Wood plays Wendy. She brings new life to the character of Wendy. And then there is Jason Isaacs. He plays both Captain Hook and Mr. Darling, creating a Hook that is more memorable than ever before.

The DVD features are alright, I bought the movie just for the movie, not the features. The features give insight on the making of the film, which is interesting, but some of them are so short (less than two minutes on one!) that I wonder why they were even included on the DVD.

Definitely get this movie. It's perfectly for all ages, all types. It doesn't matter who you are-- the theme and meaning of Peter Pan is something that we can all relate to. The visuals are great, fantastic acting, awesome musical score (in which case, you might want to check out the soundtrack sometime!)-- overall just a wonderful film that you'll watch again and again.

This review is from: Peter Pan (Full Screen) (DVD)

When I first saw this movie in the Cinamas I was blown away! I thought it would be just like the Cartoon with a bit of Hook, but the way they shot the movie it actually felt that Never Land was real. Jeremy Stumpter was amazing as Peter Pan, I dont think anyone else could fill in that role then him. Hes a heartthrob girls, Watch Out.

Peter Pan is a GREAT movie of all ages and something the whole family can enjoy. This is why I gave it 5 stars, you can't rate it untill you see the Magic in this movie.

This review is from: Peter Pan (Widescreen) (DVD)

I love Peter Pan. I swear, I've been in love with him since I was 3 years old. Well, not him exactly. First I wanted to be him, then I wanted to be his friend, and then I fell in love with him. This movie is awesome, Rachel Hurde-Wood is a great talent, and this is THE definitive version...no dinky little Disney cartoons...or weird cross dressing ladies...you're actually afraid of Captain Hook in this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars A treat for the whole family, and quite true to the book.
This live-action Peter Pan is a truly great family film. I feel that it stays true to the heart of the book; the quirks of the lost boys, Tinker Bell's stubbornness, and Peter's... Read more

Peter is very lucky because he can fly about all day and make Captain Hook's life a misery. I bought the American version of this also because there is a scene cut out of the UK... Read more
