Watched "Hook" last night after about a 25 year gap in between viewings. Absolutely stunned how well it has stood up. My wife really enjoyed it as her first viewing.
As an adult I greatly appreciated all the small details I was too lazy to notice as a kid. Things like the costumes, the reference to storybook characters, and performances by Hoffman, Huskins and Maggie Smith. And most of all, the musical score. What an amazing soundtrack from start to finish.
Made me sad knowing Robin Williams isn't with us anymore.
