Top CriticChildren will enjoy Never Land for its adventure and physical humor. Adults may simply like strolling down memory lane.

Top CriticIf you've got a house full of tots -- don't worry, this will be on video long before they grow up and you can wait till then.
02/19/02
Top CriticA brisk, reverent, and subtly different sequel.
02/19/02
Top CriticThis is pleasant, safe entertainment that ought to appeal to kids younger than 10, especially to girls, with its female-empowerment fantasy.
02/16/02
Top CriticThe boy who wouldn't grow up comes off like a shrill, obnoxious little drip.
02/16/02
Top CriticThough the characters may connect as nostalgia for boomer parents, their kiddies will wonder what all the fuss was about.
02/16/02
Top CriticEvokes enough of the first movie to trigger a good time for veteran Pan fans and new audiences.
02/15/02
Top Criticou've got to love a Disney pic with as little cleavage as this one has, and a heroine as feisty and principled as Jane.
02/15/02
Top CriticThis follow-up seems so similar to the 1953 Disney classic that it makes one long for a geriatric Peter.
02/15/02
Top CriticWhen it comes right down to it, kids don't really care. They just want to see a good story full of compelling characters, and Return To Never Land is that.
02/15/02
Top CriticBoomers and their kids will have a Barrie good time.
02/15/02
Top CriticPreceded by a 1957 Pluto short, Never Land is a warmly nostalgic throwback.
02/15/02
Top CriticAn eminently airworthy sequel to one of the studio's most renowned creations, 1953's Peter Pan.
02/15/02
Top CriticA bland animated sequel that hardly seems worth the effort.
02/15/02
Top CriticReturn to Never Land is a bright and energetic animated comedy, with all the slick polish we expect from Disney, but it's not much more.
02/15/02
Top CriticReturn to Never Land is reliable, standard Disney animated fare, with enough creative energy and wit to entertain all ages.
02/15/02
Top CriticIf Return to Never Land ... doesn't have a story to match the original's in breadth and imagination, it does a smooth job of recycling its characters and themes.
