Peter Pan has a special place in the realm of classic animated Disney films: it instils an element of child-like wonder. The 1953 version of James M Barrie's story is colourfully told and keeps on the straight and narrow of the book. Barrie's wondrous focus on child's play is the key to its longevity: children who don't grow up, shadows that run away from their owners, pirates, a fairy, and the magic ability to fly. In short, you can't help wishing the adventure would happen to you. Fuelled by a few memorable songs (the stunner being "You Can Fly") and the strong impression of the pixie fairy Tinkerbell and the goofy Captain Hook, Disney's version of this story neither supplants nor lessens the Broadway version with Mary Martin that was produced for television the same decade. Unlike some classics, Peter Pan never ages along the way. --Doug Thomas, Amazon.comCustomer reviews: There are Disney animation movies... and CLASSICS..., 2007-10-19 This one is a CLASSIC in his own right!... not kidding... It has the kind of drawings of the best period of the Disney factory... (not that I did not like RATATOUILLE for exemple... but IT'S NOT THE SAME! level of artistry...). Of course the Barrie story is a must in his own right (and the "darker" side of Peter Pan in the book has been softened... and that is OK with me!). The only DVD in my collection from the Disney factory. As someone has pointed IT DOES NOT AGE WITH TIME!
RECOMMENDED BECAUSE IT IS THE PERFECT DISNEY ANIMATION FILM.
ADB
not my favourite disney film but hey its disney its gonna be great anyway isnt it, 2006-05-23 with the amazing animation and the trademark singalongs you know this is a disney film what can you say when the people at disney pump out great film after great film? well for me this film doesnt quite deserve the prestigus 5 star mark purley because i thought that the story seemed very very rushed but apart from that the characters are great physically and vocually (espseacially mr smee)and the constantly present "disney magic" is there so i am not complaining (that much) definatly worth a look young or old
