    Ahw yes this movie. Not gonna lie but he was hilarious in this movie. Coming out from XMen, Jackman decided to throw his hand at doing romantic comedies. This one is actually a guilt pleasure of mine. I really love this movie and hey its got Meg Ryan in it. Think of it as Enchanted and Pride and Prejuice and you get this whimsical fantasy.

    DirectorJoe WrightStarsLevi MillerHugh JackmanGarrett Hedlund
    I hate to say this but this was the worst Hugh Jackman film I have ever came across. He just doesn't work as a villian AT ALL. Here he plays Blackbeard who is after Peter Pan(played by newcomer Levi Miller). Jackman even shaved off his own hair for the role and ends up looking like a cross between James Franco and Johnny Depp. Do yourselves a favour and watch Kate & Leopold instead of this,he was WAY better in it.
