Hook is a 1991 movie directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman, and Julia Roberts.

Plot outline

The premise is that Peter Pan (Williams) has grown up and become a selfish corporate lawyer with no sense of humor and has no way of communicating with people usefully. This is a situation he must remedy when Captain Hook (Hoffman) returns and kidnaps his children, while his family is in London visiting Wendy during an awards ceremony held in her honor. Aided by Tinkerbell (Roberts) and the Lost Boys, Peter must remember who he is and save his children. Phil Collins, David Crosby, Jimmy Buffett, and Glenn Close make cameos.

A novelization was written by Terry Brooks.
