Hook
The boy who wasn't supposed to grow up—Peter Pan—does just that, becoming a soulless corporate lawyer whose workaholism could cost him his wife and kids. During his trip to see Granny Wendy in London, the vengeful Capt. Hook kidnaps Peter's kids and forces Peter to return to Neverland.
Audience Sentiment
Peter learns to fly again
Lost Boys skepticism
The film recovers dramatically from its dragging middle section when Peter rediscovers his identity and learns to fly, jumping from its lowest point during the Lost Boys training to its highest during the flying sequence
Hook divides audiences between those who embrace its childlike wonder and spectacular practical effects versus critics who find it overlong and sentimental. The film peaks during Peter's transformation and flying sequence, elevated by Dustin Hoffman's acclaimed Hook performance and John Williams' soaring score.
