i try to make it a point to watch this movie at least once a year and or when i feel myself get too cynical . this be because if you be look for fun movie that really do pull at the kid inside you and then this be definitely it . robin williams be just the right kind of goofy for my taste and and make an excellent pan . captain hook be perfectly fit by dustin hoffman . i could have do without julia robert a tink . actually and i can do without julia robert all together . but bob hoskins make a great smee . ( i like to watch this and who frame roger rabbit and back to back ) anyways and i watch this movie once a year because the message of the movie and and the reason people watch it and warrant that . a movie where the message be to never lose sight of your inner child . imagination . belief in magical creature . sword fight with pirate . all of these thing that i be sure you do a a child and a i do . as far a i be concern and all of the people who have write bad review for this movie and say thing like the character weren not believable and and spielberg try to answer a question that do not need an answer have lose sight of the kid in themselves and have become pirate and and should have their hand feed to crocodile . it a movie . a family movie . one that need to appeal to both child and adult and which be a difficult task and to be successful . and i believe that this movie succeed at that very well .
