Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

wheatley-20230 The visuals are stunning. Hugh Jackman is just great, clearly relishing his role. His performance alone makes the film worth a watch. The story is capable of dragging you in. You have to forget your Peter Pan pre-conceptions and accept that this is different. Be prepared to go with the flow.

magnuslhad The only sense of wonder Pan invokes is who to blame for this spectacular pig's breakfast of a film. Screenwriter Jason Fuchs seems to have no sense at all of visual storytelling. Everyone speaks in expository dialogue from the off, and does not let up to the credits. The kids find the treasure trove, and so say "It's the treasure trove." Then they find the records and so say, "It's the records." Did Fuchs think he was writing a radio play? Why did Wright straitjacket his cast with these stiff exchanges? The film touches on Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean, Star Wars, The Matrix, shamelessly cannibalizing parts from other successful adventures and insultingly thinking we won't notice. The boy playing Pan looks good but acts so wooden he blends into the ship. Everyone else is flat, though the clunky dialogue gives them very little option for nuance. Wright opts for a big blancmange of colour, song and CGI, but it's a mix that falls dreadfully flat. I came to this with low expectations - the only surprise was that it is even worse than the bad reviews imply.

Sean Payne Eragon hear, here we go again with yet another riveting review, of a rather awesome film by director Joe Wright, Starring Hugh Jackman as Blackbeard Garrett Hedlund as Hook, Rooney Mara as Tiger Lily, and Introducing Levi Miller as PAN, this is the backstory to the Peter Pan Saga, I thought the story was well thought out professionally executed by a 10 star Director, I thought that Pan was played by a excellent young actor Levi Miller first rate. his face said all that needs to be said in this movie Hugh Jackman a veteran in the film industry plays the villain with an intensity rarely seen today, the story line is just what the Peter Pan saga needed a backstory so we now know where Peter pan came from and how Hook enters the story. In closing i give this film one hundred out of one hundred stars

mindyfrostbite It is so important to note that this is a RETELLING of a classic story. This isn't quite the Peter Pan you already know, and it's not meant to be!Also important to note that this is an ORIGIN story; Peter was not yet the legendary Pan. An EXCELLENT job by Levi Miller as Peter, the real lead of the movie, by the way.Another reviewer noted that it was not quite a movie for young children; the feel is somewhat dark, there is death of adults and children alike (though it is not gory). I would agree with that reviewer, and I personally figure that it could have been more clearly expressed in the marketing that; along with not being the story people are accustomed to hearing when they think of Peter Pan, the story is also a bit more harsh and not geared toward YOUNGER children. Mind you, it IS rated PG rather than G, so I suppose that could have been a clue for parents - ratings are given for a reason, afterall! In any case, I took this movie for the darker, reworked variation that it is meant to be; and as a result, I loved it. Visually it's just stunningly beautiful, with seamless effects; the villain has a solid reasoning behind the villainy (rather than just innate evil); and the storyline is very well executed.Shame about all the negative feelings people have towards this movie; I would have loved to have seen a sequel!
