Thirty years ago, Steven Spielberg released his long-awaited take on the story of Peter Pan.
Hook starred Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman, and Julia Roberts and was directed by the most famous filmmaker on the planet. But the all-star cast and behind-the-camera credentials weren't enough to make Hook a success. Panned by critics and met with lukewarm box office, Hook was considered a financial and artistic disappointment.
So how did Hook become such a beloved classic? What was the atmosphere on the set of what was (at the time) the biggest movie production in the history of movies? And why - out of all of his movies - does Spielberg so readily single Hook out as a blight on his resume?
Featuring interviews with those involved with the production and insights from film critics and superfans, Hooked! is a deep-dive into the most Bangarang movie ever made.
