Steven Spielberg and the late Robin Williams bring us the most swashbuckling of adventures. Hook imagines an adult Peter Pan who becomes a workaholic lawyer, until his old nemesis captures his children and he must return to Neverland to save them.

With roots in darker themes, one of them being death, A Monster Calls is a smart, moving fantasy tale.
Good luck getting NeverEnding Story's theme song out of your brain.
