This is Peter Pan like you've only imagined before!

What a perfect movie! This is the beloved children's story that I think has never truly been done justice until now. The movie is perfectly cast, perfectly acted, and the soundtrack is the most magical music you've ever heard. Every scene will draw you more into this lovely story. With a slight twist on the friendship between Peter and Wendy, and amazing special effects, this story comes to life in a way that only the magic of film-making can accomplish. This is not just a children's movie! Families and couples everywhere can appreciate the magic spell cast by "Peter Pan."

So I waited and waited to get the DVD and when it finally came it did not even work. What a waste of time and money. I will never buy DVD's from amazon.com again

Positively brilliant

Peter Pan, one of the most enduring stories of all time, finds its ideas and visions captured perfectly in this film adaptation.

THE GOOD: Just about everything. The script is true to its literary roots, the casting is absolutely perfect, the visuals are wonderful, the score is beautiful, and the special effects are classy and elegant. Special applause for ending the creepy tradition of having women in the lead role. Rather than confusing the crap out of us with Cathy Rigby or Mary Martin, Jeremy Sumpter as the lead *is* Peter Pan. He is convincing, entertaining, and fully believable. The use of colour to convey moods is both beautiful and effective. The climax gives you chills. It is wondrous how much excitement and joy has been squeezed into this gem. The audio is haunting and perfect.

THE BAD: There is nothing bad about Peter Pan. It could not have been done any better. This is the definitive version for all time.

THE VERDICT: The is a great looking and sounding film. The story is wondrous and exciting. The actors are all uniformly perfect for the roles. Jeremy Sumpter in particular is a revelation. I really believe that this version of Pan is one of the great cinematic achievements of film. Everyone should watch this - it's pure enjoyment that represents everything that the cinema should be. I have also found it to be one of the most re-watchable movies ever; it can give you butterflies in your stomach just as much on the tenth viewing as the first. One of the most solid 5 stars out of 5 that I can name.

The video is fine, but the company that shipped it is not.
I ordered the wide screen version. They were out of stock, so instead of letting me know that, they sent the full screen version. After several emails, they told me to keep it and refunded my money, but I wish they would not assume it to be OK to send something other than what was ordered.
