One of many remakes, Peter Pan & Wendy give a diverse touch compared to past remakes, but still lacks the originality of remaking classics. Though it’s an inspiring watch as Peter Pan stands for never growing up and keeping faith, the original cartoon will never be beat. With points on inspiration from other Pirates movies, such as Pirates of The Caribbean with a flipped over ship, they did a nice touch with some paying homage to other classics, as well as poking fun at the endless amount of remakes of Peter Pan there have been.
