honestly and despite the crap people here throw on hook and i have always enjoy watch this movie when it come on tv . i still cry during the scene where pan go back to the tree where the lose boy hide out in the original cartoon . he start to remember this past of how he be orphan and take to neverland and and watch his best friend wendy grow old a he forever stay a young boy . reach deep into his past of sadness and happiness and pan ( robin williams ) evoke real emotion from the audience . perhaps this be not one of spielberg well film and but to me and this be say alot about the man . the fact that love one of his lesser effort a a childhood favorite and make me want to watch all the rest of his film and such a encounter and the color purple . spielberg be truly a great director and and this movie and while not show every facet of the man ability and be truly an enjoyable and memorable ride . please watch this movie ( with an open mind ) and judge it for what it be and not a a flawless work of a master director . a for me and this movie have a true treat and an fantastic heart warm family movie like we all need every now and then . ( positive ) .
