Description
The magic, the excitement, the wonder of the true Peter Pan comes to life for the first time in this spellbinding fantasy that critics proclaim "a fun and fantastic tale!" (Daily Herald). Brimming with spectacular special effects and non-stop action, this all-new adventure is sure to be a family favorite for years to come! "One of the finest films of the year!" (Daily Gazette)

Fine casting, genuinely special effects, and a keen combination of whimsy and danger make this Peter Pan the one to beat among all previous adaptations of J.M. Barrie's classic children's fantasy. The technical advances of CGI make the magic of Barrie's tale come alive, and the spectacular effects combined with luminous live action create an action-packed Neverland that's both believable and breathtakingly artificial, like a Maxfield Parrish landscape springing vividly to life before your eyes. More important, however, is the fact that director P.J. Hogan (whose splendid films include Muriel's Wedding and My Best Friend's Wedding) has taken care to develop a substantial, pre-adolescent affection between the boyish sprite Peter (Jeremy Sumpter) and resourceful London girl Wendy, played by Rachel Hurd-Wood in a marvelous screen debut. This emotional bond--and the mixed blessing of Peter's eternal childhood--is what gives Hogan's Peter Pan its rich emotional subtext, added to an already bountiful adventure that's equal parts delightful and menacing, especially when the villainous pirate Captain Hook (Jason Isaacs, doubling as Wendy's father) threatens to spoil the fun. With a mischievously dazzling Tinker Bell (played by Swimming Pool's Ludivine Sagnier) and no expense spared on its lavish Australian production, this Peter Pan gets it entirely right by presenting childhood as fun and frightening, in all its wondrous joys and sorrows. --Jeff Shannon

Customer Reviews for Peter Pan (Widescreen Edition)

son loves it
what can i say, my sons loves the film. he watches it at least once a week if not more.Peter Pan (Widescreen Edition)

Better than My Imagination
When watching a movie version of a favorite classic, one's expection is high. I expected this film to be good, but found it to be much more exciting. In fact, it seemed to literally capture images from my imagination formed while reading as a child, and re-create them on screen. Watching it gave me a sense of motivation, and a renewed desire to play as my children do, right alongside them. My children were rivoted by this production. They have since made their own costumes to look like favorite characters and built a rustic pergola-style "Lost Boys Fort" out of sticks, ivy, and dried flowers from the garden! I guess they found it motivating as well!Peter Pan (Widescreen Edition)

peter pan flies better than superman!
i have seen peter pan played by an adult woman (mary martin). also played by an adult man (robin williams). in the awful "hook" version.
peter pan was a "boy". (all boys grow up, except one) so they finally got that right. and everything else about the movie. the special effects and especially the flying was superb. beautifully made, and i enjoyed it so much i am thinking of buying another copy of it. i just wish there could be a sequel.Peter Pan (Widescreen Edition)

Peter Pan Movie
Great movie! My 4 year old son loves pirates and we already owned the Walt Disney movie but he really prefers this movie version. It has real kids and makes it more real to him. I also enjoyed the movie.Peter Pan (Widescreen Edition)

Peter Pan
I bought this because there is a scene cut out of the UK version. Peter is very lucky because he can fly about all day.I tested the DVD and it works just the same as the UK one and there is an extra scene which you don't see in the UK verson of the film. It is where Hook and Peter are in the Black Castle.

Both films are excellent,UK and the US version.Peter Pan (Widescreen Edition)
