The animation is crisp and colorful, and will surely enthrall anyone that grew up on films like Snow White or Cinderella. Obviously, there are plenty of familiar elements to keep the kids happy (including a deadly octopus that makes clicking noises with its tentacles - ring any bells?), but this is otherwise a sequel in the best sense - the continuing adventures of beloved characters from the first film.Īnd while Disney's insistence to "enhance" their traditionally animated films with computer graphics is once again present and quite distracting (most notably in the form of Hook's ship), this is a great looking film. Unlike other Disney sequels, this isn't merely a retread of the original. Return to Neverland was originally slated for a straight-to-video premiere, but some Disney executives apparently saw some potential in the film and upgraded it to theatrical release. Not surprisingly, Peter Pan and the lost boys quickly come to Jane's rescue - leading to some wacky escapades and a showdown between Peter and Hook. He kidnaps her daughter, Jane, in an effort to lure out Peter Pan, who's kept Hook's booty hidden all these years. But Wendy's past catches up with her, in the form of the nefarious Captain Hook - who's still looking to retrieve his long lost treasure. Bernard (well, this is a Disney film - there's got to be at least one lovable animal).
It's a time of war and Wendy's husband is sent away to fight, leaving her to care for the kids and a lovable St. The movie opens several years after the original, with Wendy now a married adult (and with two kids, no less). There's nary a fart joke or jive-talking animal to be found just engaging characters and a disarmingly compelling storyline. It was about the mischievous but innocent little boy Peter Pan, a boy could fly and would never grow up, and his adventures on the faraway island of Neverland, a place where there were mermaids, Indians, pirates and fairies.After a long stretch of family-oriented movies consisting of gross-out humor and juvenile antics ( Snow Dogs and Big Fat Liar, to name the two most recent), Return to Neverland is refreshingly old school. Barrie wrote the play Peter Pan or, the Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, and then later on in 1911 adapted it into a novel Peter and Wendy.
