Got my girlfriend to go with me, and we both liked it a lot. Made up for having had to sit through Hook. I had forgotten how many truly creative storytelling elements are in there, like the villain being perpetually chased by a crocodile who swallowed his hand and so loved the taste that he wants the rest (although fortunately the crocodile can be heard coming because he swallowed a clock). That’s not the sort of thing you get from the committees of marketing specialists who squeeze out the commercial products that usually pass as children’s entertainment these days.
My two “Tweenagers” loved it – so did my wife and I.
Not a bad note in the whole of it, and the production was fine. While kids should love it, it isn’t a movie just for kids.
Everyone should see this. No one should be made to sit through The false Cat in the Hat monstrosity going around.
Yes, yes Jason Isaacs is fabulous! And it was quite a shock to see him go from the long white hair of Lucius to the long black hair of Captain Hook.
I loved that the movie stuck closer to the book than any other and I was so happy they also stuck to the tradition of Mr. Darling and Captain Hook being played by the same actor.
But, sadly, the first spoiler mentioned in this thread is the part I missed most of all!! 
Overall, it was very very good.
Finally took them both to see it today. We all loved it. When it was over my daughter asked if we could watch it again. If it wasn’t for the $17 I would’ve said yes.
I really hope more people go to see it. The thatre I went to was small, but quite full, so I’m hoping it’ll make decent money.
I liked it a lot.
I’ll have to go back and re-read the book, it’s been many years since I read it to my kids. The movie seems to be a strange combination of bits from the book and play (the poison in the medicine), bits from the Mary Martin musical version (building the house for Wendy), and bits from the Disney version (like the flying pirate ship.)
