The Good, the Bad and the Boy Who Never Grows Up:

• The film is a visual spectacle - it is colourful, bright and full of exciting adventures.

• Though the film has a lot of great ideas, not all of those ideas go well with each other.

• The scenery, background and character costume in the film are a sight for sore eyes as they are all beautiful and vibrant.

• Storyline wise, the plot is pretty much at a mediocre level, not exactly giving the audiences anything new to be excited about.

• Brilliant performance from Hugh Jackman and newbie Levi Miller, but the casting of Roonie Mara as Tiger Lily is a mistake.

• The forced romance between Tiger Lily and James Hook also seems unnecessary.

Trivia:

• When Levi Miller was 5 years old, he won a drama award for playing Peter Pan.
