Let the fight begin
The magic, the excitement, the wonder of the true peter pan comes to life for the first time in this spellbinding fantasy with spectacular special effects and non-stop action.

"Action-Fortified...and Entertaining!  Denver Post
"Like the schoolkids in this adventure, from the opening images to the closing credits, I do, I do, I do believe in fairy tales.   Sean Axmaker, Seattle Post-Intelligencer

Editor's Note
Everyone knows Peter Pan as the boy who will never grow up. Writer/director P.J. Hogan's (MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING) new live-action interpretation of the classic J.M. Barrie tale is surprisingly sentimental, imbuing Peter--played by the charming Jeremy Sumpter--with a sense of longing and a desire to be loved. The object of his affection is Wendy Darling (Rachel Hurd-Wood), a pre-teen in Edwardian London with a penchant for telling dazzling tales to her younger brothers. When Mr. Darling (Jason Isaacs, who doubles as a daunting Captain Hook) decides that Wendy should live with her Aunt Millicent (Lynn Redgrave) in order to become a proper lady, Peter takes the Darling children to Neverland, where all of the characters in Wendy's stories actually exist. The trio embarks on the adventure of a lifetime, flying through the skies, encountering nasty mermaids, and enduring Tinker Bell's (Ludivine Sagnier) hijinx. Along with the Lost Boys, the Darling children take on Captain Hook, Peter Pan's arch nemesis, and his band of pirates. Filled with lush sets and splendid special effects, this film is a visual treat. PETER PAN also stars Olivia Williams as the fetching Mrs. Darling, and Richard Briers as Hook's sidekick, Smee.

Professional Reviews

New York Times
"...[Hogan's] filmmaking style is a perfect mixture of wide-eyed wonder and slightly melancholy sophistication." 12/25/2003 p.E5

Entertainment Weekly
"PETER PAN is a bright, whirling pinwheel of a movie..." 01/09/2004 p.58

Chicago Sun-Times
"[A] film that takes its story very seriously indeed, thank you, and even allows a glimpse of underlying sadness." 12/24/2003 p.49

James Berardinelli's ReelViews 8 of 10
Family entertainment late in 2003 has been pretty wretched, with depressing options like The Cat

Rolling Stone 5 of 10
Big bucks have been spent on another go at J.M. Barrie's fantasy, but despite a hint that Peter (Jer - Peter Travers

Chicago Sun-Times 9 of 10
It's not that the movie is overtly sexual; it's just that the sensuality is there, and the other ver - Roger Ebert
