Neverland (2011)
10/10
Would make a great show!
11 December 2011
As a longtime fan of everything Peter Pan, I thought this was a great prequel to the story. It was an amusing tale with new twists that fit it with what we already know from the story. Although SyFy did take a few liberties and change or tweak things a bit, it still fits it with much of what we already know. The graphics were well done (more so than other shows by SyFy) and I quite enjoyed it! As for the actors in this two-part show, Charlie Rowe is a fresh new face and a fresh breath of air. He plays Peter beautifully and makes you want to jump in and join the lost boys! I expect to be seeing more of him in the future! Our favorite bad guy Captain James Hook is played but the great Rhys Ifans. It was an odd choice in my mind because whenever I think of him his more comedic roles come to mind first, but I think he played the part wonderfully! Overall, I think Syfy could have a great new series on their hands if they choose to make it (and I think they should!) They could show all the "possible adventures" Peter talks about them having in Neverland.
