Just saw this movie tonight. It was really good. I recommend it if you're a Peter Pan fan and even if you're not. :wink:

I have to admit, from the title I thought it had to do with another expose' on Michael Jackson.

I hate to admit that I would ever see a film just for this reason.
...but, damn it, I am female!

Of course I could also say that I have a degree in English and grew up loving Peter Pan...that sounds more respectable, doesn't it? :wink:

This film is excellent.

Best movie I have seen this year.

Need more tissues for this than a Jenna Jameson DVD

I saw Sideways on Friday, then this on Saturday. The best back-to-back cinema I've ever seen.

While Sideways was calculating and, at times, emotional... Finding Neverland just teemed with creavity and heart. It's a film I probably won't forget for a long time. No outstanding lines, no breath-taking performances, just a great, feel-good (empty?) film.

for those who don't know what it's about... it tells the story of James Berrie's relationship with four young boys and their mother, which inspired him to write Peter Pan.

As I writer, I loved to see this man's journey and how he lived it through the story he wrote. But as a movie-goer, the film just dazzled. Beautiful, beautiful. I recommend it.

i saw Finding Neverland last week as well. absolutely loved it. i gain more and more respect for Johnny Depp as i see more movies he's staring in. The guy has unequaled talent. And Kate Winslet was lllllovely in that movie, as usual. :)

It was kinda funny to watch the audience's reaction during emotional moments. At one point, when Sylvia Davies crosses in Neverland, a woman in the theater just broke in tears of joy and sadness. She was sobbing so loudly that quite a few people laughed and then she looked around and kinda giggled out of embarassment. It was a pretty funny moment. And in the final scene, i was just looking around and saw quite a few people wiping their eyes with tissues. Though i have to say...that scene almost had me get emotional too. :P

I was a little teary eyed during the last 1/4 of the movie. I let myself get a little too lost in it.

And yes, Kate Winslet was great as usual. She's quickly becoming one of my favorite actresses.
