I have never read the book, but everyone knows the story. At first I was cautious of another Peter Pan movie, but forget Hook and the animated version.
The stand out is Rachel Hurd-Wood as Wendy. She is fantastic, her innocence and sweetness captures the essence of the story. Jeremy Sumpter has a smug smile that doesnt suit the character, but still does a pretty good job.
All in all, go see it to wipe away the shambles of Robin William's Hook, my friend had it down to beat Return of the King, im afraid not, its good, but not epic. The best part is how the romance between Wendy and Pan is showed, it is sweet, innocent, and touching at the end. Sad, but not the sickly kind where directors overplay the moment, this movie has some special moments, believable and real.
