Review of Pan (2015) by Jens S — 23 Jan 2018

The prequel telling about Peter Pan's first steps in Neverland and his friendship with young Captain Hook looks mostly amazing. Its colorful almost theater-like sets, costumes and ships fit perfectly to Spielberg's Hook.

There are plenty of fast, exciting action scenes and yet, the film doesn't manage to grab you by the collar. It's all fairly entertaining and easy on the eye but also a bit bland, mostly because the plot is not all that interesting.

Still, kids should have a blast with this. It's just somewhat disappointing that the film does not end up explain Pan and Hook's rivalry, here they are still friends as it comes to an end.
