My husband and I REALLY ENJOYED this movie! It's good, old-fashioned filmmaking and good, old-fashioned storytelling. They didn't try to make the kids updated and hip. They didn't try to work in modern references. There were no product placements. They stayed faithful and true to the story, and true to the way the story should LOOK. It's one of the most beautiful looking movies I've ever seen. From the snow-covered streets of London, to the fairy glitter, each frame is lovingly rendered, and welcome eye-candy. I also loved the look of all the characters. I thought the acting was good (I liked all the characters, even the dastardly Captain Hook) and the music was lush and gorgeous.
Is it a great movie? No, but it's a very good one.
Favorite film of 2008 (so far): The Fall
