Peter Pan (1989)

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Captivating movie !

Best movie of this year hands down!

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

I will start by saying, the times set up the culture for bad screen treatment of Native Americans. Ever see a John Wayne movie? If we can set aside the obvious negativity about this and look at a sparkling film with really good music. It is the J. M. Barrie film with a bit of poetic license. We have delightfully drawn characters who can fly and a group of lost boys. And, of course, a great Captain Hook and my favorite, Smee. If there is a slight criticism, it would be that Peter is a bit too confident. There's little vulnerability. One of the features of the book and the stage play is a vulnerability and a longing that doesn't quite translate.

Sweet, fun Disney classic.Based on James Barrie's famous book, the story of Peter Pan, the boy who never grew up. We see his battles with Captain Hook, Smee and company, accompanied by Wendy, John and Michael and, of course, Tinker Bell...Wonderful adaptation of the novel. Fast-paced, funny and with a great vibrance and message. Animation is excellent and still looks fantastic, over 60 years later. There's not much music, but the tunes there are are very catchy. Good voice casting too.An animated classic, suitable for all ages.

A childhood classic that is still enjoyable today . My 29 year older brother still believes he is one of the lost boys . With all of the fairy lure , the pirates , the sense that you are being taken back to a time in your childhood , where there were no worries and you still had a sense of wonder , that is what I want out of a childhood movie and that is what you get with this one . You return to your childhood where you can be anything and everything , and sometimes its good to just reset , Find your inner-child and let them out , come back with a better understanding of life and a tad more sense of who you are and who you were.

It's the classic J. M. Barrie story. George Darling declares that it's Wendy's last night in the nursery and ties Nanna in the backyard. While the Darling parents are out, Peter Pan chases his shadow to the nursery. John, Michael and Wendy join him to fly to Neverland using pixie dust from Tinker Bell. Captain Hook leads the pirates who vows to get revenge on Peter Pan for the lost of his hand. The crocodile that ate his hand has developed a taste for Hook. Lucky for him, he's ticking after swallowing a clock. A jealous Tinker Bell convinces the Lost Boys to shoot down Wendy bird. Hook and Mr. Smee have kidnapped Indian princess Tiger Lily to find Peter Pan's hiding place.It's a fun Disney classic. Captain Hook and Mr. Smee provide the big broad comedy. The fun is that the cartoon doesn't hold back. The crocodile has sharp teeth. It's inappropriate at times especially with the portrayal of the native tribe and the song "What Made the Red Man Red?" Tinker Bell almost steals the show. The animation is beautiful. It's one of Disney's golden age movies.
