Hook (1991)

Published: May 31, 2019, 11 a.m.

If you were born under a certain sign, Steven Spielberg's 1991 Peter Pan "sequel" was a childhood staple. For most others (and even the director himself) it's seen as a misstep at best, and a waste of a great cast at worst. Frank invites his old friend Tom Gruber to dive into the bargain bin and discuss why this Robin Williams vehicle deserves a better reputation.

Before the nitpickers @ us on Twitter:

  • Director Howard Hawks said a good movie is "three great scenes and no bad ones."
  • The correct honorific is President Business, not Mr. Business (he lost the popular vote but won the electoral college).
