I guess I must be the only person on these boards to dislike this film and I am shocked at the high rating it has been given.
I found this to be one of the worst examples of modern film-making.
Contrived, sentimental, insipid......truly, this really was a waste of time.
Johnny Depp could no do no wrong in my eyes until this cloying mess... They should have been true to Barrie and at least had an actor of the correct stature play him...i.e 4foot 10 inches! Barrie suffered from psychogenic dwarfism.
What's more there is definitely an issue to address about a grown man wanting to spend so much time with somebody else's children...an issue that has been addressed in literature and documentaries about Barrie, but why not here?
