Come Away

About This Movie

So, 'Come Away' really weaves this interesting narrative around the origins of Alice and Peter Pan, which is a nice twist. It's like diving into a world before their adventures, where grief and imagination clash. The atmosphere feels both whimsical and heavy, balancing adventure with real-life loss. The pacing has its lulls but that’s part of the emotional journey - you can feel the weight of their struggles. The performances are pretty solid, especially the kids, they bring a depth that keeps you engaged. Practical effects lend a charm, though it doesn’t shy away from some darker themes. It’s distinctive in how it blends those fantasy elements while grounding them in such a relatable familial conflict.
