I watched this movie again after a number of years since first seeing it and I have to admit it still holds up as much today as it did in 2003, in fact one could almost say this is quite the definitive version of Peter Pan with a story that flows from start to finish. James Newton Howards score is so perfect for the film are the performances by Jeremy Strumper and Rachael Hurd Wood and of course Jason Issacs gives an amazing performance as Captain Hook. This movie is for young and old alike and proves that Hollywood can make a great movie that can captivate audiences even years after its release.

At first I thought this movie would be horrible, another Peter Pan movie oh god aren't there enough? But when I saw it I was amazed. It wasn't too kiddy, wasn't too dark but a great mix in between those two. The one character that stood out the most for me was Hook. He was amazing, deceitfully dark and much better than Disney's take on it. The special effects are decent too and the story, well the same age old classic.

This movie is definitely for those who are huge fans of Peter Pan. It is a fun filled adventure that will entertain young and old alike.
