3.0

Failed to follow through on the promise of nuance in the toxic friendship between Peter and Jamie but this Peter Pan beats out all the little horror movie dead girls for scariest child antagonist. The sense of dread grows and does not relent.

Pan lore purists, this is not for you. Works best as a prequel to the Disney or with only a faint memory the original.
