Return to Neverland

Rated: G

"Return to Never Land" opens a new chapter in Walt Disney�s classic �Peter Pan�, as once more we take a magical journey to a place where we never grow up. And even though some years have passed since we last visited, that wonderful world is unchanged. Peter Pan is there, along with Tinker Bell, the Lost Boys, and villainous Captain Hook. But Wendy left Never Land, grew up and now she has two children of her own. World War II is raging and has come to the very heart of London. Wendy tries to comfort her young ones with stories of here experiences in Never Land: Danny loves the bedtime tales. But 12-year-old Jane -- a practical child in a world torn by war -- sees no room for make-believe�at least until she�s kidnapped by Captain Hook and whisked off to Never Land! Hook, mistaking her for Wendy, plans to use Jane as bait to capture Peter Pan. But Peter rescues Jane from the villain�s clutches and a rollicking adventure is underway. With Tinker Bell & the Lost Boys at their side, Peter & Jane ultimately defeat the old pirate -- and Jane, at last, finds hope alive within her as the very first Lost Girl. She now understands that imagination has a powerful magic � and many things are possible with faith, trust�and a little pixie dust.
