Excellent, a Must See

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

I don't hate it, I just find certain things unappealing. To get it out of the way. I can't stand Tinker Bell, and I really don't know why a character this cruel and selfish has become a Disney icon!? Heck, she tries to kill off Wendy more than once and is stupid enough to believe Captain Hook! And I really don't like the indian stereotypes in this movie. I hope parents of today will take the talk with their kids about such things in movies and media in general. Besides that we get wonderful animation as usual (the flight scene over London towards Neverland is one of my favourite scenes from any Disney movie) and mostly highly enjoyable characters. Captain Hook and Peter Pan are just hilarious together. The crocodile and Hook make some great slapstick comedy worth a fortune. And a couple of memorable songs like "You Can Fly" and "Following The Leader". The ending should be a reminder to every parent who blame their children for being children. It's a wonderful lesson to learn for the parents.

Peter Pan is a boy who would not grow up and went to a magical land, Neverland. But everything changes when Wendy and her brothers are taken there by his hand. Directed by Clyde Geronimi, Wilfred Jackson and Hamilton Luske, has a screenplay by Ted Sears and his team and a competent voice actors team. The production was in charge of Walt Disney himself.This is one of the most interesting films that Disney released in the life of its founder and master. We cannot say that is the best, but it certainly is very interesting anyway. The drawings were made with bright colors but without excessive glare. The characters are good, steering with the majority of children's stories and the imagination of most children of that time, with the Indians, pirates, fairies and the desire to fly. The plot is good, has excellent situational jokes and the figure of the main villain, Captain Hook, is key to many of these comic moments. Tinker Bell is a very ambivalent character, because it seems to be half in love with Peter Pan, a kind of Platonic love. The musical moments are interesting, though more discreet and less memorable than what we see at other Disney films of the same era.Although there are many criticisms of the way this film portrays the Indians, I do not think the film deserves these same criticisms. I think I've seen much more racist and prejudiced characterizations in many western movies and never saw anyone upset about it. This film is for children and, therefore, all are portrayed (pirates, Indians or even the English) in a way that appeals to children, the target audience of the film itself, regardless of how they are. Does anyone think that the pirates were really like Hook? Of course not.Enjoy this film for what it is, see this movie with child's eyes.

For me Peter Pan is one of the lesser movies of the so-called post-war restoration era of Disney. It's not the triumphant return of Cinderella, nor the bizarre fun of Alice in Wonderland, nor does it have the warmhearted atmosphere of Lady and the Tramp nor the technical quality of Sleeping Beauty. It's still a marvelous adventure film and heads and shoulders above most of its animated peers. It just means that by Disney standards it's not near the top.A few reason for this. First of all, I don't think that Captain Hook is a very good villain. He has the visual appeal and a great voice actor in Hans Conried who, following the proper Peter Pan tradition, also voiced Mr. Darling. But I think he's way too slapsticky, which takes away all the menace most other version of the character have. Then again, the crocodile is awesome.The songs are also of poorer quality than in many other Disney films. You Can Fly is of course a classic, but other than that I cannot remember any other song. Except of course What Made the Red Man Red, which is problematic for other reasons.Plus Wendy is something of a step back from Alice, the previous Disney heroine, who was also voiced by Kathryn Beaumont, by the way. And I have absolutely nothing against Beaumont, she's amazing, but the character herself is a lot less activate and personal than Alice.But, it stills has that Disney charm. The animation is unsurpassed, Tinker Bell is one of Disney's finest characters for a reason, the actual plot is a lot of fun and as a whole it's over an hour's worth of fun, excitement and good family entertainment. It's not one of the strongest Disney films in my opinion, but is definitely worth a watch no matter your age.

It's the classic J. M. Barrie story. George Darling declares that it's Wendy's last night in the nursery and ties Nanna in the backyard. While the Darling parents are out, Peter Pan chases his shadow to the nursery. John, Michael and Wendy join him to fly to Neverland using pixie dust from Tinker Bell. Captain Hook leads the pirates who vows to get revenge on Peter Pan for the lost of his hand. The crocodile that ate his hand has developed a taste for Hook. Lucky for him, he's ticking after swallowing a clock. A jealous Tinker Bell convinces the Lost Boys to shoot down Wendy bird. Hook and Mr. Smee have kidnapped Indian princess Tiger Lily to find Peter Pan's hiding place.It's a fun Disney classic. Captain Hook and Mr. Smee provide the big broad comedy. The fun is that the cartoon doesn't hold back. The crocodile has sharp teeth. It's inappropriate at times especially with the portrayal of the native tribe and the song "What Made the Red Man Red?" Tinker Bell almost steals the show. The animation is beautiful. It's one of Disney's golden age movies.
