As most books-turned-into-Disney-movies, Peter Pan was much darker than the Disneyfied tale I knew well. But I loved it. It's a magical story of the innocence of childhood and the magic of dreams. Most importantly, it highlights the life-changing power of motherly love. Peter and the Lost Boys, who never knew this love, still dreamed of it until they found it in Wendy. 
 Peter is such a weird character - you can't help but be entranced by his confidence but also shocked by his ego and selfishness. He is what all children are, as Barrie says - "gay and innocent and heartless." What makes him different from the rest is that he is unwilling to give his childhood up. Hook was also a fascinating character. He definitely needed to see a therapist to sort out all of his emotions about "good form." 
 Overall, I loved the beauty and whimsy of Neverland mixed with the grand adventures of Peter and the Lost Boys. I laughed and my heart warmed, especially whenever Michael spoke. Barrie really brings the innocence and beauty of childhood to life.
