Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

Live Action Peter

Live Action Peter Pan

 

Has anyone seen this? It is a gem I discovered at my library last week, made in 2003. Starring Jeremy Sumpter as Peter Pan, Rachel Hurd-Wood as Wendy, and Jason Isaacs as George Darling/Captain Hook.

 

Please tell me I am not alone in seeing this brilliant (in my opinion--feel free to debate) movie!

Wow, I could have done a lot better than that on this post...

 

It follows the original book by JM Barrie, and does it a lot better than the Disney version did. One of the coolest parts is that these people are actually flying (with wires and stuff, obviously) and doing things like fighting in the air, etc. and it looks very real and fantasy like. Peter and Wendy are very good actors (IMO) for their age, and of course the addition of Jason Isaacs makes it even better. Tinker Bell is also hilarious.

If you have seen this movie, what did you think? If you have not, I encourage you to do so as soon as possible!

Yes, I liked this version of Peter Pan. I saw it a few years ago. Hasn't anyone else seen it?

I've seen parts of it, but never the whole movie.  From what I've seen, though, I agree with you.

I haven't seen it, but it sounds good! I loved Hook! Hook  is about this man, Peter Panning, who is actaully Peter Pan, but he doesn't rememver because he left Neverland and married Wendy's granddaughter. Then his two kids are captured by Captain Hook and he has to rescue them. It was a really good movie, I though!
