Finding Neverland

FINDING NEVERLAND is a charming picture. It has a striking visual vocabulary, Kate Winslet is luminous, Julie Christie gets a turn, and Johnnie Depp absolutely nails his accent (He sounds just like one of the hobbits in the LOTR commentary - either Boyd or Monaghan, I don't recall which).

I didn't laugh, and I didn't cry, but I did enjoy it through and through. There are worse ways to spend an hour and a half.

"I didn't laugh, and I didn't cry, but I did enjoy it through and through." That's probably the best description of this movie that I've ever heard. I thought it was a pleasant film too but nothing to write home about. I enjoyed the time I spent watching it though.
