Based on J. M. Barrie's novel "Peter and Wendy" and inspired by the 1953 animated classic, "Peter Pan & Wendy" is the timeless tale of a young girl who, defying her parents' wishes to attend boarding school, travels with her two younger brothers to the magical Neverland. There, she meets a boy who refuses to grow up, a tiny fairy and an evil pirate captain, and they soon find themselves on a thrilling and dangerous adventure far, far away from their family and the comforts of home.

Critics Consensus

Peter Pan & Wendy's obligatory fidelity to the animated classic keeps it from achieving Neverland nirvana, but David Lowery's pensive direction gives this rendition some of its own magic.

Audience Says

Slower and a lot less visually appealing than Disney's animated version, Peter Pan & Wendy lacks the magic of the classic source material.

Chicago Reader

Peter Pan & Wendy is a puzzlingly bland take on one of the liveliest children’s stories of all time.

The Spectator

There is swashbuckling and the ticking crocodile and Smee, but the narrative always feels perfunctory and inert possibly because there’s just no spark between any of the characters, least of all Wendy and Peter, who is portrayed as a sulky kind of chap.

The movie is entertaining and has a professional polish; but it’s also very safe.

It’s a gorgeous rendering of a classic. Imperfect and messy, but personal and earnest, as well.

Rated: 4/5

'Peter Pan & Wendy' is a decent live-action remake stays faithful to the source material as well as its animated predecessor, but that's about it.

Rated: 3.5/5

Faith, trust and pixie dust populate this tale of magic, mystery and swashbuckling sword fights centred around Jude Law’s conflicted Captain Hook

Obviously Disney didn't do their job to make a slow/horrible movie that I would expect. BLEGH!

I LOVED this movie. Its was beautifully made, had a great plot that didn't mirror the original story so it had its own unique twist, the actors were perfect, and the movie was just really wholesome. I'm surprised this movie has such low ratings, but if you are a fan of Peter Pan/Neverland inspired works then I would really recommend giving this movie a shot!!

For some reason this movie did not have any appeal to me. Tried watching it with an open mind but still came out unsatisfied.
