Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Steven Wilson I've give my rating a four because of the acting ability from all of the actresses and actors, I think they played their part well how ever I was not impressed by this series. What I wasn't impressed about was the story plot as a whole, it seemed like a fan fiction of when Peter meets Fagan who turns into captain hook.Peter was an orphan just like Oliver twist who happens to meet Fagan but instead he's named Hook. In the real story Peter wasn't an orphan, his parents were very much alive and he flew away to Kensington Gardens after hearing of his adult life. A fairy is born from a baby's laugh and Peter was 7 days old when he lived in Kensington Gardens, and Tinkerbell was born by his laugh. The TV series Neverland seemed to have forgot this and forgot the true story. I was very disappointed the true magic of Neverland wasn't portrayed.I think this TV series was another care of another classic being eroded away and the author's work being forgotten.
tacview293 I very very surprised at this movie which I just finish watching on Netflix. visually stunning,it adds a whole new dimension to the Peter Pan story in a way that can be enjoyed by adults and well as children, although it has a few dark moments to it as well as a suggestive, but no real nudity, love-making scene. It also has a good bit of mildly graphic violence. I'd rate it PG. Overall the acting is good. The special effects are also good, not quite up to par for something like, for instance, the Star Wars movies, but decently believable. I think Tinkerbelle and the crocodiles could have been a little more realistically computer animated. Although the crocs are exceptionally dinosaur-ion huge, I can just imagine they too were transported to that world just like the other characters except maybe from a prehistoric period. It's a prequel that sets the stage for the Peter Pan story. But offers much further possibilities for many future story lines since it takes place in a quasi Oz/Narnian world that offers literally a world of new places to be explored. It would make a GREAT TV series! The story line is fairly fast paced and often leaves you to wonder what will happen next. It was so engrossing I had to pause it when I had to briefly leave the room in far of missing something. I will recommend it to friends and probably even watch it again (something I rarely do in movies.)
bbcommunication I have watched everything in history about Peter Pan. I loved many versions and even enjoyed the history of how the story was created. But, this is absolutely my favorite of them all! This actually has depth and emotion. This explains many of the unanswered questions we all have when we watch the "Disney" version. This takes the fairy tale gloss off the finished product, but yet still has that fantasy flair and imagination.It never surprises me that high quality production, story, and acting gets overlooked and this never took off into further production. With passing time, the actors and production staff are getting older and into other projects.... oh how I wish people would spread the news about this great series and get it brought back or even better yet.... to the big screen. WE NEED A MORE GRITTY AND A DEEP PETER PAN! I was left wanting more!
Rudy Menjivar The beginning was boring. Peter is a complete IDIOT. Read RottenToothDecay's thread "Terrible" he summed up almost everything, except a few things. Why did the faries trust Peter in the first place? Why did they think HE would be able to help them get rid of the pirates? Why didn't they give their powers to the indians? The indians respected them and helped them! So why would they give their powers to Peter and NOT TO THE INDIANS??!!! Oh, they gave him their powers because he has innocence. But he's a dumba--!! Even when he saw that Hook betrayed him and the other kids, he decided to trust him AGAIN!! After all that happened. At the end, Tinkerbell had an idea to let the pirates go back to London so that they could get the orb back and give it to the other faries. And maybe the faries would forgive Peter and take all the humans back to Earth. Excellent Idea! But does Peter think so? NO!! The dumba-- stops Hook from stabbing the orb and fights the pirates off and at the end, more people die and nothing gets resolved. In my opinion, Tinkerbell is the only person in this WHOLE series that was SANE. Even though she doesn't appear in the show that much. Nobody in the show was likable, except for Tinkerbell. Everybody else came off as stupid or useless.
