J.M. Barrie's classic fantasy play Peter Pan has inspired a plethora of adaptations in various forms of media, but which Peter Pan movie is the best?
Adaptations of J.M. Barrie's classic play Peter Pan have been around since the birth of cinema, but which movie is the best? The Scottish author's most famous work tells the story of a sprite-like young boy named Peter Pan who lives in the fantastical realm of Neverland and refuses to grow up. Almost immediately after its publication, Peter Pan influenced other forms of media, and the enchanting story has captured the imaginations of other artists for generations.
9 Peter Pan Though the Walt Disney Company doesn't own the realm of animation, the animated straight-to-video Peter Pan film from 1988 smacked of blatant copying. Presented in a stripped-down hour-long story, the movie tells Barrie's classic tale with very little deviation from previous takes. Many of the characters closely resemble the Walt Disney version, and the production value makes it look like something akin to 1980s TV animation.
6 Wendy Leaving J.M. Barrie's original vision behind in favor of a more modern approach, Wendy captures the essence of the message of the classic tale despite changing almost every detail. Set in the rural American South, the movie follows Wendy as she follows her brothers to a strange land where people never grow up. The Americanized take on Barrie's story was one of the freshest modernizations since the story debuted, but it still lacks magic.
3 Hook Though director Steven Spielberg doesn't like Hook, audiences did, and the critically panned movie became a bona fide cult classic. The zany reimagining follows an adult Peter , now a successful businessman, as he travels to Neverland to rescue his children from the clutches of Captain Hook and assume the role of Peter Pan.
