You know there’s trouble ahead when the pixels begin outnumbering the pixies. For the first 30 minutes of Joe Wright's (Anna Karenina) prequel to the J. M. Barrie classic, we follow Peter (Levi Miller) as he progresses from orphanage doorstep to flying pirate ship. Peter’s inevitable arrival at Neverland is greeted by a society of orphans singing "Smells Like Teen Spirit." It's a testament to song and dance man Hugh Jackman, whose mere presence in the role of Blackbeard calls for a musical number, no matter how ridiculously out of context the placement. Not without its spectacular moments — a pirate ship mixed up in a WWII air raid was sublime — but Wright’s third acts continue to go wrong, most notably in the case of Hanna. True to form, Pan’s densely pixielated final battle is busy to the point of indecipherability. With Rooney Mara, transforming every one of Tiger Lily’s moves into an exercise in exotica, and a paltry 60 seconds of Cara Delevingne in mermaid attire. (2015) — Scott Marks
