Approximately 75-90 minutes.

Material/Themes

Very faithful to the original J.M. Barrie story. It includes pirates with weapons, sword-fighting, a crocodile chasing Captain Hook (who has a metal hook for a hand), Tinkerbell drinking poison to save Peter (who ultimately saves her). Depicted with a sense of play and adventure.
