VHS Movie Reviews of Peter Pan In Return to Never Land

Movie Review: Seen on the big screen
Summary: 4 Stars

My son is a Peter Pan fanatic. So when this came to the big screen we were in the first row. I am not sure why Disney decided to put this one out, for Cinderella II was out at the same time and was not in theaters. Hhowever I think though the plot was basically the same as the first Peter Pan films this film was much shorter, and targeted more towards the age of 4 and up. Though the first scene where Jane is kidnapped is a little scarey and the talk of the war I think really it is not as dark, has more humor than the first and seems to be over quicker! The only part that was sad to be missed was the alligator who was replaced by an octopus. Yet he too added a cute scene here and there.

Movie Review: Worth one return
Summary: 3 Stars

Well, the kids enjoyed it, and I thought it was nice for one viewing. We get to revisit the whole gang from the first movie, and they now throw in Wendy's kids, as she's now grown up and has popped out a few. Peter Pan has still not grown up, Captain Hook is still quite mean, especially for a kid's feature, Tinkerbell is still a babe, and The Lost Boys seem to have been lost when they were giving out brains.

However, it's basically the same plot all over again. Only substitute Wendy's daughter, who is at first mistaken for Wendy by those who don't understand the concept of aging. Virtually nothing new happens once we meet the old gang, except that Captain Hook has a new nemesis to replace the crocodile. And there is not one memorable song.

Not too bad, but not too good, either.

Movie Review: Pretty darn good!
Summary: 4 Stars

I am VERY critical of Disney these days. They have turned out so much junk over the past several years that it is criminal. Mainly these sequels of their classics. Such complete failures are The Little Mermaid 2, Cinderella 2, Aladdin 2, Aladdin 3, The Hunchback Of Notre Dame 2, Pocahontas 2 ect. So when I heard a sequel to Peter Pan was coming out I rolled my eyes and prepared for another poor excuse for a movie. To my surprise, Return to Neverland is not only good, but I actually liked it better than the original movie! I can't believe I actually said that! And to think I LOVED Peter Pan was I was younger. This movie has beautiful animation, a pretty decent story, and nice voice acting. My only complaint is the voice of Peter. His voice is WAY too young sounding to fit his character model. Peter has the body of a teenager 15-16 years old. He's slightly more muscular in this than the original. And yet he sounds like he's 8 years old. Another downer is that Peter hasn't matured any. I know he doesn't age any in Neverland but sometimes he just get annoying with his childish antics. He looks too old to be such a brat. The music in this movie is also not so good. You forget it as soon as you hear it. But that aside, I highly enjoyed myself while watching this movie.

Movie Review: Worth seeing
Summary: 3 Stars

I rented this film because it was released to theaters, which made me curious. I'm glad I watched it. While the slapstick feels forced at times, it does have some good moments. But everything this movie does well, the original does better.
