Wally Hammond
Infused by an awkward decorum; the kind that descends on a gathering dominated by an unmentioned death or transgression.
Ken Tucker
If it didn't have Johnny Depp as its star, Finding Neverland would barely pass muster as an average PBS Masterpiece Theatre entry.
Rex Reed
It's harmless cotton candy with pleasant turn-of-the-century décor, but I admit the Disney ambiance eventually wore me out and I spent a lot of time looking at my watch.
Roger Moore
Finding Neverland is not exactly the way it happened, but this is a movie with a higher truth, one we need to believe in. And you will believe. You will.
Rene Rodriguez
Watchable and passably engaging.
Desson Thomson
Depp is a charm. He becomes his own, subtly compelling Barrie.

You're expected to weep, and perhaps you will weep. But if you do, it's not likely that you'll respect yourself in the morning.
