Terri 07/15/2025 A family favorite from the past. Took the grandkids. Loved it! See more Greg F @RT52825332 6h How do you get to be a movie critic on this god forsaken app? How does Hook have a lower rating than all the other live action Peter Pan movies? The 2023 one? Horrendous in every way. Compared to Hook? Dustin Hoffman, Robin Williams, Stephen Spielberg, John Williams. Enough said. The others are daytime TV movies in comparison. For a live action kids movie, Hook is top tier.

And then growing up, but having to face someone who took his children. It is a silly and simplistic view of parenting while being a busy executive. However, it focuses on fatherhood and "believing." See more Dempo T @RT51675448 Aug 6 A beautiful, heartfelt adventure that deserves far more love than it receives. Hook understands something deeply moving about growing older: adulthood can make us forget who we once were, but that child is never completely gone. The movie is funny, emotional and full of wonder, with a warmth that modern family films rarely capture. John Williams’s soundtrack is simply magnificent. It gives every scene a sense of magic, scale and nostalgia, while the quieter moments carry sadness and tenderness. The music does not merely accompany the film, it gives Neverland its soul. Dustin Hoffman is still the finest Captain Hook ever put on screen. He is theatrical, menacing, vain, hilarious and oddly vulnerable, often within the same scene. He never plays Hook as a simple villain, but as a wounded and wonderfully entertaining character. Every gesture, pause and line feels perfectly judged. Hook is colourful, sincere and unforgettable. It is about family, memory and rediscovering joy. Five stars. See more Rami N @RamiNassour Jul 12 It’s ridiculous to see the bad reviews on this movie. It’s an excellent movie. My child loved it. We loved it. Very well-made. Don’t listen to the institution. See more Jerod S @jeroduptown Jun 29 Robin Williams is definitely made for a role where an adult man finds boyhood and freedom - but something about Hook is just a little too schmaltzy.
