Robin Williams Learns To Crow For Spielberg

by jankp jankp is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Feb 04 '01
Pros: Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman, Julia Roberts, Spielberg movie magic
Cons: a Lost Boy dies, Robin Williams' "moments", questionable storyline maybe

While there were a couple of “Robin Williams’ moments,” plugging the wonderfully funny movie Good Morning Vietnam (Pirate Smee bellows “Good morning, Neverland!) and the last line of Hook was “Seize the day!” by an old geezer finding his lost...

In Hook, Peter Pan Grows Up - and Then Back Down

by bilbopooh bilbopooh is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jan 17 '08
Pros: touching and imaginative, great performances
Cons: the Boo Box!!
There are certain movie scenes that really stuck with me as a kid. Among the most traumatic of them: Willie the whale getting harpooned at the end of The Whale Who Wanted to Sing at the Met, Han Solo being frozen in carbonite in The Empire ...

Back to Neverland

by Goatius Goatius is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, , Mar 23 '00
Pros: Good, campy performances, fine effects
Cons: Lax direction, overlong story
A very fun fantasy outing that got much more criticism than it deserved, Spielberg’s Peter Pan rehash is a joyful, if overlong, remix of the old J.M. Barrie characters. The twist, that Peter Pan has grown up, is a very interesting concept that is...

Peter Pan grew up?

by KellyJeannie , Nov 09 '00
Pros: Very realistic and great actors
Cons: a small moment of violence
~I won't grow up, I wont grow up! ~

Guess what? Peter Pan left Never Land and is enjoying the adventures of life as an adult. Who would've thought that *The Pan* would choose to become a lawyer, husband and father of two? And forgetting his...

Hook! Hook! Give us the Hook!

by ssjakira1 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Nov 18 '06
Pros: Great movie, I really love Jack
Cons: What? Oh, sorry - I forgot what cons are. Blame Neverland.
Let’s face it – I have nothing better to do. So, just like I figured I might as well review every book I own, why not start in on the movies? Gotta keep my Top Reviewer status somehow don’t I? So here I am, eating Turkish Delight and going ...

by jeff_wilder78 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jul 20 '03
Pros: An interesting premise (that was sadly botched).
Cons: Does Bonfire Of The Vanities for kids sound enjoyable?

Hook...Hook...Hook.....Long Live the Hook!

by silentrascal , Aug 16 '02
Pros: Dustin Hoffman as Hook. Great sets, great storyline. Fun, imaginative, touching.
Cons: Ending was a little weak. Found Pan's kids to be somewhat annoying.
When I first saw Hook in the theaters back in 1991, I was captivated. It was a rousing, and surprisingly touching, adventure of the boy (now a man) who actually did grow up. I had seen the old version of Peter Pan starring Mary Martin and from then on...

Like Pan This Movie Will Never Grow Old!

by greenspan , Jul 10 '01
Pros: Family Entertainment The Story Lives On!
Cons: I didn't get a DVD as it will outlast VHS, my err.
Three top rated stars brings about the revival of the Peter Pan Saga which began many years gone by. There is no way that this film could have been anything but good with three of thespians that I rate as being top rated actors and actresses. In order to...

Hooked: Line and Sinker

by chezon , Jan 31 '00
Pros: Pulls you into the adventure.
Cons: Have to explain one of the Lost Boy's death to younger kids
When Hook first hit the theaters, it didn’t catch my attention. But, one day while shopping at Costco’s (Sam’s Club) this comically silly movie was playing. I kept trying to push my cart past the in-store televisions, but I wasn’t permitted pass until...

What a delightful movie! A story we all know and have seen in many different versions. I especially enjoyed this version of Peter Pan.
Robin Williams does a wonderful job of making the movie come alive.

He especially, makes you smile...
