User Reviews: Hook (1991)
The best movie in history
Pros: Dustan Hoffman, it wasnt till the end of the movie i realised who it was, what a truly great actor
Cons: nothing in my mind
Hook in my mind will remain one of the best and most amazing films ever written. There has been no other movie which has inspired me so much as i have grown up, i have cried, i have laughed and i have enjoyed this movie 10's of times over the years. If only more people realised what an amazing film this truly is.

"excelence movie". that's a can say. great camera shots, great story, i think it is such a good idea to explain what happened after the original story of peter pan ended. the decision for each different actor and actress was very well chosen. great visual effects. if it was up to me, this movie deserves at least two grammy's maybe even more.

This movie is one of the most magical movies I've ever seen. The acting is superb. The music fits perfectly. It's just like a children's storybook. VERY good.

Adult and kid-friendly; no nudity or cursing; even my lilly-livered 4yr old daughter loves it!

This movie is the modern day version of the Peter Pan story. Peter Banning is a lawyer that is having a struggle between his family and his job. On a trip to England, Peter Bannings past comes back to help him save his children from Captain Hook who doesnt believe that Banning is really Peter Pan, his enemy. With a lot of fun and laughs, Peter discovers that he had forgot his past and when he realizes it, he comes back to save the day. Robin Williams plays the character of Peter Pan/Peter Banning and he is a great actor and this movie will bring smiles and laughs to all that wished that they were lost boys in Neverland. Watch this movie and find your own happy thought!

A clever and original reworking of the Peter Pan story (via the pen of fantasy writer, Terry
Brooks). I was especially impressed with (and
surprised at) Dustin Hoffman as Hook -- it's one of his best roles. The Lost Boys are a bit much, but there's enough pixie dust to make it a pure delight for the whole family.Was this review helpful? Yes - NoVery entertaining.....
Watch with the whole family...I cried because Peter couldn't remember being PETER. A great childhood favorite turns into a great adulthood favorite. Some "pixy-dust" would certainly help get over a mid-life crisis!!

A rather annoying interpretation with more than a hint of claustrophobia as the whole thing feels as if it was shot in a small studio. Eventually, all I wanted was out of there. Just dont bother with this film.

I absolutely loved this video. It brings you back to when you were little and you too had an imagination. As an adult you can still enjoy the video and make believe that you lived in a cool place like that. Robin Williams did a great job in this movie; as he does in all his movies. This video has all the emotions from fun to sad, and from bad to good. This is an awesome film that I would love to share with my children when I do have children.

This guy doesn't know what he is talking about. It is not the the original Peter Pan, but what comes after Pan decides to grow up. A wonderful story!

Hook is an outstanding movie that makes me stop and think each time I view it (and I have viewed it many times since I first purchased it 5 years ago!). Incredibly entertaining with outstanding special effects, it also manages to jolt the viewer with its message. Simply put, Hook is the story of good vs. evil but with a twist- evil can turn to good in the mind of a child when he is neglected by his father. The film is a menagerie of emotions- from funny to outright frightening- and intense with most all of them. For anyone who has lost their childhood or forgotten what's really important in life, this movie is a great and entertaining reminder. If you love your kids, you will love this movie. (but it's probably too much for the little ones...)
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoWonderful movie for all Peter Pan fans!
This is an awesome sequal to the original Peter Pan story. Peter Pan has grown up and has kids of his own, but has become a "pirate" of the modern day world. He doesn't remember a thing about his childhood, however, until Captain James Hook kidnaps Peter's children back to Never Never Land in order to force him to lead the Lost Boys in an end-all war. Julia is makes a great pint-sized Tinker Bell, still in love with Peter and in charge of helping him overcome his amnesia to realize what is most important in life. It's an all-star cast directed by Spielberg, and if you let it, the fairytale will make you feel like a kid again, caught up in the magic of it all.
