In this human version of Hook, Robin Williams plays the undefeated Peter Pan. He’s grown up and forgotten his adventures in Never Never Land, but when the window opens and his two children are kidnapped by Captain Hook and his accomplice Smee (Bob Hoskins) that Tinkerbell (Julia Roberts) take him back to his adventure land to rescue them.

The nasty Captain Hook (Dustin Hoffman) has been plotting the death of Peter Pan ever since his disappearance and when the pair meet up, Captain Hook doesn’t believe that the fully grown man with no powers is the real Peter Pan. So, that gives Peter some time to remember his talents and defeat Captain Hook, with the help of the lost boys and Tinkerbell of course.

Peter runs into a few problems when his son takes a liking to Captain Hook and turns into a mini-hook, so he has to work twice as hard to ‘win’ back the affection of his son.

It’s a great kids flick that grown ups can get lost in as well.

Oh.. it did have a happy ending.
