Found an instant classic

Rating: Null/10 (13 November 2004)

Johnny Depp is one of the most versatile actors around its official after striking box office gold with Pirates of the Caribbean he opts for a completely different movie, which could have been risky business thank god its not. Finding Neverland is based upon playwright J.M Barrie(Johnny Depp sporting a perfect Scottish accent) who after a serious of disastrous plays looks for inspiration from Sylvia Llewelyn Davies(Kate Winslet) and her four boys. It is from one of the boys in particular(the excellent Freddie Highmore) that Barrie's inspiration for Peter Pan unfolds and the classic tale comes to life. The story itself is told with a fantastic flair by monster's Ball director Marc Foster and the entire cast are perfect. Johnny Depp is mesmorising in the role as Barrie, Kate Winslet is perfect (as always) as Sylvia, Freddie Highmore(soon to appear alongside Depp again in Charlie and the Chocolate factory as Charlie Bucket) is a joy to watch and their is superb support from Dustin Hoffman as the hilarious Charles Frohman and Julie Christie as Sylvia's interfering mother. An instant classic from start to finish; made me laugh, made me cry, made me proud to be British.
Overall grade: nothing less than an A+
