Strictly average movie

Sorry, this movie sucks

Lack of good storyline.

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

not better than others. not worst. only new adventures in a new frame. for fans of Peter Pan - a must see. for the others - good occasion to discover a prequel who did few explanations, who use magic and the enthusiastic young characters for a trip in essence of a well known story, same fascinating, seductive and charming. it is difficult to say anything about "Neverland" . bad or good. because it has an interesting start point of story - Dickens would be proud as source of memories - and the technology did a great job. but the film has not the force to be a revelation. decent acting, nice adventures. and nothing else. but enough for a nice evening after a work day.

I was always a big fan of the story of Peter Pan growing up but I always wondered how Peter Pan came to be in Neverland and where Tinkerbell came from etc.. This story answers some long over due questions while remaining true to the original books. I really do love stories or films that expand upon an original idea and breathe new life into it, this mini- series did just that. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a more mature refreshing take on Peter Pan..The actor playing Peter Pan was very likable,Rhys Ifans did a very good job as the rouge Hook and Anna Faris very much surprised me with her witty take as Captain Bonny especially the good accent, ..As soon as this mini series started I knew I was about to watch something special and I was certainly not disappointed!!

The beginning was boring. Peter is a complete IDIOT. Read RottenToothDecay's thread "Terrible" he summed up almost everything, except a few things. Why did the faries trust Peter in the first place? Why did they think HE would be able to help them get rid of the pirates? Why didn't they give their powers to the indians? The indians respected them and helped them! So why would they give their powers to Peter and NOT TO THE INDIANS??!!! Oh, they gave him their powers because he has innocence. But he's a dumba--!! Even when he saw that Hook betrayed him and the other kids, he decided to trust him AGAIN!! After all that happened. At the end, Tinkerbell had an idea to let the pirates go back to London so that they could get the orb back and give it to the other faries. And maybe the faries would forgive Peter and take all the humans back to Earth. Excellent Idea! But does Peter think so? NO!! The dumba-- stops Hook from stabbing the orb and fights the pirates off and at the end, more people die and nothing gets resolved. In my opinion, Tinkerbell is the only person in this WHOLE series that was SANE. Even though she doesn't appear in the show that much. Nobody in the show was likable, except for Tinkerbell. Everybody else came off as stupid or useless.

I've always enjoyed the story of Peter Pan and I'm glad to see it done once again in a new way. I thought this movie was well written and executed, it does not follow the exact story of Peter Pan but it's what makes telling this story different from the many others we've seen such as the movie Hook.It was fun and adventurous that had some really interesting effects and twists all through the movie. This is one the whole family can enjoy watching over and over again.The actors all did a great job and I enjoyed the music score, the one thing this show will be missing is if there isn't a sequel the way this ended it could be expanded on and I would truly love to see a sequel happen.
