Summary: 5 Stars
I absolutely love this movie! It is such a great twist on the original Peter Pan story.DVD Review: Hook.Popeye and Hocus Pocus
Summary: 5 Stars
Great old movies all three that we purchased recently. Popeye was great although I understand did not do well at the cinema. Love Robin Williams so Hook had to be next. Hocus Pocus again another great movie which we will watch again and again. Also our grand children love these DVDs so they are added to our collection. All light hearted comedy no violence and all very funny,DVD Review: The Ultimate Mid-life Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I have watched this movie at least 20 times 18 years ago when my children were young. Now I am 53 years old. I recently, caught a short piece of the movie on cable one day at lunch. I realized this was only partially a children's movie. This continuation of the venerable Peter Pan story is all about the male mid-life experience (45-60 years old or so). When I watched it with this concept in mind, I found myself in tears within the first 15 minutes of the movie. It is such a profound mythic description of modern day man in mid-life. My children are now grown. Yet, I find myself just like Peter, drawn to return to the days of childhood to find what has been lost there and needing to pick up certain things for the next portion of life. All the characters of the self can be found in this story from the shadow to the male anima. Perhaps we all have to learn again how to fight, fly and crow. The challenges of mid-life are so wonderfully presented you could teach a course from this one movie alone. Yes, it is a great kid's movie, and 18 years ago my son had a Hook birthday party in which he begged me to put up a zip line for him to slide out of a window in our house. It has all the elements a young boy loves. But, there are all the elements that a 50 something man needs to hear again and work through. It's a classic for our time and perhaps for the ages.
Description of Hook
Peter Banning is a 40-year-old acquisitions attorney who has forgotten how to let the child within himself take flight. When his children are kidnapped by his old nemesis, Captain Hook, he is forced to fight his fears and make a fantastic return to Neverland to regain not only his children, but the child he once was.and to regain not only his children, but the child he once was.Genre: Feature Film Family
Rating: PG
Release Date: 1-FEB-2005
Media Type: DVD
Steven Spielberg's deeply flawed but sporadically fun and moving update of the Peter Pan legend stars Robin Williams as the grown-up Pan, a corporate-takeover type who must embrace his old identity in order to save his kids from Captain Hook (Dustin Hoffman). The stars put on a good show, including Hoffman's read of Hook's hysterical personality, Julia Roberts mini-turn as a tiny Tinker Bell, and Maggie Smith's touching performance as the aged Wendy. The visual contrast between the adult Pan's bustling outside world and the insulated fantasy of Neverland is striking, but Spielberg's ideas about the Lost Boys--politically correct in their ethnic diversity, energetic on skateboards--are contrived and cheapening. On the plus side, the story's theme about adults finding their innocence again through their children is very touching (though some people have found it cloying). If you can look beyond the glaring problems, there's plenty to like here. --Tom Keogh
