Wendy from the original Peter Pan movie is now grown up with her own family, living in London during the blitz of WWII. Her husband leaves to fight, leaving her alone with her daughter Jane and a younger brother. Like her mother before her, Jane falls asleep and is abducted by Captain Hook, who brings her to Never Land. She is rescued by Peter Pan who brings her to his hideout to become mother to the "Lost Boys", a rag tag group of children and boys. She resists and ends up endangering the life of Tinker Bell because she does not believe in fairies. Meanwhile, Hook is looking for a treasure hidden by Peter Pan and the boys and tricks Jane into helping him. Needless to say, it all works out for everyone involved. Surprisingly entertaining sequel to the beloved classic. A touching scene between Wendy as an adult and Peter Pan at the end is especially well done.
