Peter Pan

Critics Consensus

Solid if far from definitive, this version of Peter Pan is visually impressive, psychologically complex and faithful to its original source.

Hogan has managed to remain faithful to Barrie's Edwardian spirit without making him feel musty.

David Ansen
Newsweek
Top Critic
Clearly a star in the making, Hurd-Wood demonstrates a maturity far beyond her 13 years, especially in the easy way she adopts the role of surrogate mother to The Lost Boys once in Never-Never Land.

Neil Norman
London Evening Standard
Top Critic
These ingredients are digitally present and correct, but Hogan fails to inject much excitement into the many boisterous action sequences.

Most kids will be bored for much of the time, and are unlikely to be attracted by the juvenile performers.

It adapts Barrie's text quite faithfully, adding certain reflections that no adaptation to the novel has made so far. [Full Review in Spanish]

On the whole it's a pleasant thing, if hardly the definitive treatment of the source material.

It won't give Harry Potter a run for his money, but it beats the hell out of a Cannon & Ball panto in Skegness.

Siendo notorio el gusto de Hogan por las letras clásicas de Peter Pan y Wendy, el director sabe educir el alma del libro para llevarla al celuloide.

Audience Reviews for Peter Pan

Sep 14, 2012

A fairly good adaptation of a classic. But really, the best thing about this film is Barrie's masterpiece itself.

Maymay A Super Reviewer
Sep 05, 2012

This is a different version than I am used to, but I liked it. I may be forced to read the book to determine what really happened. I have not quite figured out the significance of Wendy creating Captain Hook in the image of her father.

Red L Super Reviewer
Jun 16, 2012

Without the green costume that Peter noramlly wears, we have a more savage like costume. The film stayed true to the story and brought along some great acting. Captain Hook was absolutely marvellous in this film, the young star Jeremy Sumpter was really into his role; special effects were great. The ending was a bit Bleh, but everything seemed to worked well, was quite funny too.

Certainly not the greatest graphics. Awkward filming. Decent acting. Incredibly cute. Yeah, I'd have my kids watch this if I had them!
