Review Summary
Wendy Darling (Rachel Herd-Wood) is told she is to be moved from the nursery soon because she is getting older, she is terribly disapointed to be growing up so quickly.

    One night a mysterious boy by the name of Peter Pan (Jeremy Sumpter) shows up in the nursery window who teaches her and her brothers, James and Michael, how to fly. So Wendy flies from her troubles to a wonderful place called Neverland, where you never grow up. But is not growing up worth forgetting her family who she loves, her mother and father? Completely torn two ways, Wendy decides to go back home.

PETER PAN is a movie cowritten and directed by P. J. Hogan in 2003.

Wendy and her brothers fly with Peter Pan to Never Never Land. While Peter is being chased by Captain Hook, the children will have to fight the mean pirates and live numerous adventures on the small island before coming back to London, changed for ever and ready to become adults.
