Nice movie

Rating: 7/10 (18 March 2008)

I like movies, where you can learn something about the past and enjoy yourself while doing it. This movie entertains and also describes (more or less accurate) the development of the great stage play Peter Pan. I wished it had more realistic lighting in the reality scenes - that could have added believability. Kate Winslet gives an outstanding performance. Without her I wouldn't have liked it as much. I'm looking forward to see what the director does with the next Bond movie. Johnny Depp was OK, but far from great. The storyline is interesting enough, could have more drama and challenges for the protagonist, though. Also the character development could be deeper with all characters. Dustin Hoffman gives a great performance. He does little and achieves a lot.
