Audience Member It's a classic 90's movie that still holds up today. Robin Williams plays an amazing Peter Pan. The movie is about not acting too serious and you need to keep a child like part of you. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/27/25 Full Review Joe F It blows my mind how bitter critics were about this movie. Incredible set design. A fantastic performance by Robin for children and Parents alike. Dustin Hoffman couldn't have been a better Captain Hook, there has yet to be a captain hook that could compare. Bob Hoskins somehow a loveable dirt bag Smee. The Neverland depicted in this film was a place I dreamed of visiting every time I watched it and still thought about long after, also always made me crave a hotdog. The feast and food scenes are so much fun and beautiful. Hooks ship is beautiful. Just incredible to think it has a 29%, I love film and can be somewhat picky but this has been one of my favorites since I was a child and will always be. Please, give it a try. You won't be disappointed! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/21/25 Full Review Shaun R The kids like it, I don’t. I’ll meet in the middle and give it 2 stars. The setting and kids just make it all a little nauseating. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/03/25 Full Review Richard W I saw this movie at the theater (as an adult) on opening weekend when it first came out. I’m a fan of J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan story. I’m a fan of Steven Spielberg as a filmmaker. I’m a fan of Robin Williams as an entertainer (and Dustin Hofmann too). So I was expecting greatness! And, despite Whst most critics said at the time, I believe I got it. I love the idea of Peter Pan growing up and forgetting his fantasy past. But then, through a series of events has to return to Neverland. It’s an interesting new take on an old story. And, oh my gawd, the sets on this film are absolutely awe inspiring. That’s because they’re not CGI, they’re real! Hook may be one of the last films to use actual real sets rather than just green-screening everything. And real just looks more magical, in my opinion. Now let’s talk about Dustin Hoffman. Is he not the absolute best Captain Hook there ever was? And there’s been a LOT of great Captain Hooks (e.g., Jason Isaacs I the 2003 Peter Pan). Bob Hoskins was incredible as Mr. Smee too. I stopped watching Hook after Robin Williams died because it just made me cry throughout it. But after enough time had passed, I finally could watch it again. And I’m reminded that it’s a masterpiece (despite what critics think). I wouldn’t change a thing*. *Well, I’d love to see a restored 4K version of Hook with the songs included, as it stated out being a musical (or, so I’ve heard). Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/26/25 Full Review Rhyan D This is a great film. I have no idea why the "critics" gave it such a low score. Robin Williams is a genius, a legend, and the greatest Peter Pan to ever appear in the big screen! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/11/25 Full Review Ciara B I genuinely am so baffled by the low rating. This is truly one of the greatest childhood movies, I just introduced my 4&5 yr old to this movie this evening and they were engrossed from the second it started. I even cried a few times with pure happiness for the memories it brought back Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/29/25 Full Review Read all reviews
