How Peter & his crew got lost & How James became Hook



Captain Bonny played by Anna Friel
                          This is a clever prequel to author J.M. Barrie's classic Peter Pan. In this retelling of the story am sure all of you know about Peter & Lost boys going against the evil captain Hook. But haven't you ever wondered how did they get there on Neverland in the first place. Well Hooks not a captain & he in this version raised Peter & the Lost boys to be pick pockets in London. As for the pirates the had a female captain named Bonnie. But before you turn your nose up at this 2 part movie (each part is 2 hours long) they have a wonderful cast its a great film & when this comes out on DVD i will buy it.
