It's kind of useless to review a classic in the traditional way, isn't it?  Oh well. I'll give it my best shot.

Pros: 
It's whimsical.
Nostalgia
Disney 'n stuff
Pirates are fun.
The kids have created world where they don't have to work.
Is the prequel to Lord of the Flies.
Peter Pan doesn't grow up, which is great, because if he did, he'd be the focus of a 40-episode podcast about his serial killings

Cons:
Mommy issues
How have the boys not died of dysentery? 
Mr. Darling poisons the dog, 0/10
Casey Anthony thought she was so original not calling the cops when her daughter was missing for 30 days, Mrs. Darling did that first and better
They did a racism

I enjoyed reading this one, I got my copy from Goodwill. The language of the book was a little tough to get through but overall a good read.
