Critics Consensus

Solid if far from definitive, this version of Peter Pan is visually impressive, psychologically complex and faithful to its original source.

David Ansen

Newsweek

Hogan has managed to remain faithful to Barrie's Edwardian spirit without making him feel musty.

Neil Norman

London Evening Standard

Clearly a star in the making, Hurd-Wood demonstrates a maturity far beyond her 13 years, especially in the easy way she adopts the role of surrogate mother to The Lost Boys once in Never-Never Land.

Empire Magazine

It won't give Harry Potter a run for his money, but it beats the hell out of a Cannon & Ball panto in Skegness.

Rated: 3/5

You may feel like you’ve stepped into the pages of a storybook illustrated by Maxfield Parrish when you fly off to Neverland in... P.J. Hogan’s deft and delightful take on the oft-filmed J.M. Barrie classic.

It adapts Barrie's text quite faithfully, adding certain reflections that no adaptation to the novel has made so far. [Full Review in Spanish]

On the whole it's a pleasant thing, if hardly the definitive treatment of the source material.

Rated: 7/10

This rendition of the classic Peter Pan is truly exceptional, capturing the essence of the original story. Notably, it is the first adaptation featuring a real boy playing Peter Pan, which adds a unique authenticity to the character. The portrayal of the characters is rich in depth, and their chemistry creates an engaging experience. The enchanting magic of imagination permeates the narrative, drawing the audience into a world of adventure. This adaptation honors J.M. Barrie's beloved creation while offering fresh insights for all ages.
