Nothing will ever convince me that this was a bad movie. I know the critics hated it, and I know Spielberg wasn't too keen on it until after Robin's death, but this is the perfect adventure movie to me. Sure, the nostalgia glasses are probably forming that opinion, but to me, there are very few moments in movies that have ever hit as hard as Peter remembering how to fly. "Just hold on to that happy thought, Peter!" right as John Williams' perfect score kicks in as Peter flies through that tree...perfection.
Also, Hoffman absolute hamming it up as Hook is too much fun. Dude was told to be an old-school film villain, and he just ran with it.
