Summary: Fascinating story, impressive cast - recommended!
Review: The movie Neverland really amazed me. Beautifully directed. Incredible symbolism, especially in costuming and settings. I was so impressed with the script (stayed very true to the novel), the metaphorical genius employed, and the talented cast members. This film really stands out among other low-budget films. There were a few downfalls to it, as with any movie. At times the acting seemed a bit forced, there were choppy scenes, and lengthy drug induced color and light schemes momentarily detract attention from the point of the movie. On the whole, I thought the movie was incredible and the talent of those involved really speaks for itself. I absolutely recommend this movie, especially to those familiar with the original story of Peter Pan. It's dark and original, and manages a whole new take on the well-known classic while staying true to the story JM Barrie wanted to tell.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: New Age Translation
Review: The tradional fairy tale of Peter Pan is embedded in our childhood memories. Unlike the original tale, this new age translation is geared toward an older audience. What society sees is what society believes it is or wants it to be. This movie is symbolic of modern society because of the major twist portrayed in the lives of the characters. Although several producers and directors have tried to top the well known animated Disney movie, none have come as close as Neverland. This movie is a must see because it is a GREAT suprise.

Summary: The best version of Peter Pan EVER!
Review: This movie is by far the best version of Peter Pan that has ever been made. The story has been told over and over again but never with this originality or style. This movie was sick. I rented this movie to watch with my girlfriend and her little brother but we had to send the little brother out of the room to play with his Playstation. Making Tinkerbell a Gwen Stefani/hoochie/fairy dust dealer was genius and the Tiger Lily song was unbelievable. We were on the floor amazed by this movie. We still quote it.

Summary: Surprising and Interesting
Review: This movie is not what you expect and everything you expect. I thought it would be a twist on the Peter Pan story and it was, but the way it was twisted was very good and surprising. It's amazing how little was changed from the original yet it managed to be so different. The style of the movie is fascinating, and it is truly impressive how it was adapted so ingeniously.

Summary: What were they thinking? Why would they bother?
Review: Unnecessary, puerile, insipid, pointless, wasteful, silly, trivial, fatuous. Avoid wasting your time and money on this one. I usually give films or books that I don't like to the library hoping someone will enjoy them, but 'Neverland' has an appointment with Mister Dumpster.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Do you believe in fairies?
Review: Wendy: Peter, are you [...]? Peter: Hell no! I'm [...].

At that point I was freaking out! I knew from the start that it was a low budget film, but it sparked my interest about Peter Pan and it brought the story up to date; it makes it almost more believable.

A lot a freaky turns, like Hook's a janitor at an amusement park called Neverland? And he's into doing kinky things with his "Hook" and the bad "lost" boys.

OK its hard to explain I guess, but you do get everything that you except and a bit more.

SO if you are a big Peter Pan fan like myself and my crazy friends, you will enjoy it. It's definitely not a film for everyone.

Do you believe in fairies?
