Fantasy adventure based on J.M. Barrie's classic children's story. In Edwardian London, the Darling children, Wendy (Rachel Hurd-Wood), John (Harry Newell), and Michael (Freddie Popplewell) follow Peter Pan (Jeremy Sumpter), the boy who won't grow up, to the magical world of Neverland. Once there, they are introduced to Peter's fairy Tinker Bell (Ludivine Sagnier) and the Lost Boys and come across Peter's nemesis, the dastardly Captain Hook (Jason Isaacs) and his pirate crew.

I do believe in fairies.

It's nice when someone makes a fairy tale simply as a fairytale instead of turning it into a fantasy extravaganza where, for example, a duel with a crocodile would last at least a quarter of an hour. Such a fairytale can then safely afford a somewhat kitschy, but at the same time beautifully coloured set, which is digital from the basement to the attic, but it doesn't matter because it actually reminds us of animated films. And when it's so well acted (by everyone of all ages) and has a beautiful score by James Newton Howard... Shorten it a bit and I wouldn't have anything to complain about.
