Peter Pan

Purists may scoff at the heavy special effects in the latest movie version of Peter Pan, but what story could make better use of computerized fairy dust? Director P.J. Hogan guides it all along at a furious pace, one matched by a fleet cast. Jason Isaacs plays Captain Hook as more bully than buffoon, while Jeremy Sumpter and dazzling newcomer Rachel Hurd-Wood perfect puppy love as Peter and Wendy.
