Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
phantomstrider I was blown away by this sequel. The soundtrack phenomenally matches the scenes, the voice cast are exceptional choices, the animation is beautiful (despite only a 20M budget, which is tiny for a disney animated movie). This is easily among the absolute best disney sequels I've ever watched. I'm really glad they gave it a cinematic release as it deserved it.
jessicagale3 Young Jane has lost her faith in imagination and Peter Pan with the outbreak of the Second World War II. With her father off at war and her mother distracted by childish stories, Jane feels she is the most mature, and is looking after her family as she promised she would. But after a falling out with Wendy, Jane finds herself on board Captain Hook's ship, heading towards the second star to the right. It's not until Jane let's go of trying to be a grown up does she truly find happiness and magic. The music throughout is very well written and while modernized does still replicate the feel of the original. Ultimately, I feel this was a great carry-on from the original with all the splendor of Neverland and the perils of the island shared between Peter and Hook!
emmafrances I know a lot of Disney sequels can be really horrible and completely ruin the original movie, but I think that this movie just continues the adventure of Peter Pan. Jane, Wendy's daughter, feels she needs to grow up fast, in order to take care of her family when her father is fighting. I think this storyline is a lot more relatable than the first. A lot of teenagers feel they have to be mature very early on in order to be "cool". I really enjoyed the time period being London during WWII. However, I felt that the parts at the beginning with the bombing was not suitable for really young children, who may not understand what is going on and be very scared. On the other hand, it may just go over their heads. I think Peter Pan still had his charming and selfish personality, which I feel the directors did a great job of continuing. I thought that it was so sweet and not creepy at all how they continued the romance between Wendy and Peter, between Jane and Peter. Although, I can see how people may think that is weird. The most beautiful scene, and the my favorite scene, was at the end when Peter sees Wendy all grown up. I could feel myself tear up a bit. It was so magical. I would watch this movie over and over just for that scene.
Taylor Chesney Well, the plot isn't big like it was in the original. But I have to say, Return To Neverland was great anyway! First of all, I think I liked Peter more in this. Don't get me wrong, he was great in the original, but he was less cocky in this and I sorta liked that.I liked how it was Wendy's daughter Jane, instead of the original characters like in most Disney sequels, it was more, I don't know, realistic.Well, like I said, the plot isn't big at all, it's quite simple, but that doesn't spoil the goodness of the movie! I can see why they put it straight to Theatres instead direct-to-video, it is enjoyable!There's one scene I just loved(Note:You may not wanna read this, it may ruin it for you, that's why I put Spoiler alert on), The scene near the end,where Peter and Wendy see each other again, and she's all grown up. Seriously, it's just aw! But yeah, great movie!
