Pan — A new angle on the classic tale — 6*/10
- Scenario: The Peter Pan story has been revisited a number of time over the years and the results haven't always been good. This particular spin has rather mitigated ones. While the visuals and the ideas are great, the story is pretty poor and linear. The pacing is broken, like a hiccup rather than a flowing river. And finally, the characters are as weak as watery soup. That being said, it's kind of entertaining, but not worth a lot of money.
- Known actors: Hugh Jackman (great performance) and Garrett Hedlund.
- Visual & sound: Astonishing settings and costumes with modern songs that are as inadequate as a bed of thorns.
- Synopsis & information: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3332064/
- Who is it for? Those who really need to revisit the Peter Pan story in a different angle, those in need of a faerie tale and fantasy or Jackman fans. I'm not sure it's for kids, maybe for tweens.
