"Hook hook, give us the hook!"
If you're not familiar with this wonderful movie, I'll fill you in. Hook is a movie from 1991 (which is also the year I was born), which stars Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman and Maggie Smith. The story in Hook is that, while Peter Pan (Robin Williams) , now a hard-working adult, is visiting a dear old friend (Maggie Smith) in England, Captain Hook kidnaps his children. And now Peter Pan must return to Neverland and reclaim his youthful spirit in order to challenge his old enemy.
I recently watched his movie again, for the first time in like 10 years or so, and it was just as good as I remembered it. Although a bit longer, but maybe it just felt über long because it was nearing 11:30pm and I still had 40 minutes to go, and I was getting sleepy. But it does have a runtime of 2 hours and 24 minutes.
But it is 2 hours and 24 minutes of wonderful magical family fun! It has everything you could ask for; fairies, mermaids, pirates, sword fights, and even food fights! I have none but good memories about this movie, and it just gives me a warm feeling inside. It reminds me of family and friendship and the importance of growing up and also the importance of maintaining your youthfulness. You should all take the time to watch this movie, because it's really a gem.
I asked my two blog colleges about their feelings about this movie, and Nanna said all she could remember about it was the fat Lost Boy who curled himself into a ball to knock over the enemies. And I think that says a lot about both Nanna and the movie.
Signe said: "When I first saw the disney cartoon Peter Pan, I wanted to visit Neverland so badly. I wanted to fly, never get old, and constantly visit the mermaid part of the island. However I constantly thought: "it´s just a cartoon, so that can never happen", but then I saw Hook and all my childhood memories came back to me, but now with more hope, that flying, going to an island and never growing old could actually happen. Last time I watched the movie, was a year ago and I really love the set decoration of the movie and have often thought, that when I buy a house, the garden has to look exactly like Neverland...or the grotto from the goonies."
I remember wanting to be a Lost Boy so badly, but being sad that there weren't any Lost Girls in Neverland.
But here, watch the trailer and experience the magic.
