    I hate this film so much, it's absolute drivel. Dustin Hoffman did make a good Hook though!

    This movie kicks butt.

    Not bad - a bit over - sentimental at select bits but generally enjoyable.

    Feel sorry for Charlie Korsmo though. He's thirty and still instantly recognisable as the twelve - year - old he was in Hook.

    A great film version of the classic cartoon with some fine actors.

    Steven Spielberg's worst film. A huge, overblown mess.

    My all-time favourite Peter Pan movie! Altough the one from 2003 is really good also, there's just something about this version that is a little more magical. Dustin Hoffman (here almost inrecognizable) makes for a memorable captain Hook, and Robin Williams, like always, shines i...( read more)n everything he does. My only real beef with the film is that the acting is a little uneven. You also get that "studio feel" quite often, which detracts some of the magic, and brings you out of the illusion at times. Not to mention the needlessly long running time of 140 minutes. It's all easily forgiven though. Because in the end, this a really enjoyable watch. A childhood favourite of mine, and a movie I think ranks as one of the best family flicks out there. Very underrated!

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

No matter how much cash Hook earns, it will take more than pixie dust to fly this overstuffed package into our dreams. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Here we get the uncanny suspicion that Hook was written and directed according to the famous recipe of the country preacher who told the folks what he was going to tell them, told them, and then told ... full review

    I watch this movie at least once a month and sometimes once a week when I'm in the mood. Watch this movie with your children if you have any! It is the best fantasy film out there in my opinion.
