More Critic Reviews for Neverland Season 1 All Critics (14) | Top Critics (9) | Fresh (8) | Rotten (6) It's packed with action, much of it violent, and even more packed with special effects.

Dec 12, 2011 | Rating: A | Full Review… Diane Werts Newsday Top Critic Syfy's miniseries Neverland doesn't end up having much of a point, but the cribbed elements from other popular fantasy TV series, movies, and books are mixed together in an entertaining way, which makes the enterprise definitely watchable. Dec 12, 2011 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review… Matt Springer Common Sense Media If you yearn for the days of high-quality, big-budget, fantasy miniseries, skip Syfy's Neverland. Dec 12, 2011 | Full Review… Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette As Neverland unfortunately shows throughout, when you spend all your time and energy explaining how the trick works, there's precious little left to entertain the audience.

Dec 12, 2011 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review… Curt Wagner RedEye It's bad storytelling clothed in good storytelling, and there's something horrible about that, about using other's work to prop up your own vague, clumsy attempts at world-building. Dec 4, 2011 | Rating: D+ | Full Review… Zack Handlen AV Club Top Critic As constructed, it amounts to a Peter Pan prequel lacquered up with a revisionist space-age paint job. Dec 12, 2011 | Full Review… Brian Lowry Variety Top Critic What a thudding, literal-minded bore it is. Dec 12, 2011 | Full Review… Mike Hale New York Times Top Critic Oh, well, it makes for a mildly enjoyable story and it's probably best not to overthink things.
