Review Quotes - Finding Neverland
The boys, however, are simply fantastic, especially Highmore (Two Brothers). He easily steals every scene he’s in. He has a natural, composed screen presence and it’s impossible not to love the kid.

As one of the Davies boys, the cute, but highly gifted Freddie Highmore easily matches Depp's virtuosity stride for stride.

Freddie Highmore is another surprise delight of this film. He has infused a childlike demeanour into Peter, which is struggling to come to terms simultaneously with his great eagerness to grow up. This not only adds a slant to the usual precocious run-of-the-mill performances that kids are expected to deliver on film, but also makes that last scene with Depp all the more heartbreaking. Highmore’s amazing talent has won him much praise among the two older leads and has also won him a place beside Depp in his next project, “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”, a film that this reviewer is rather looking forward to.

Best of all, though is young Freddie Highmore, as Peter, the heartbroken little boy who inspires Barrie to find inspiration while trying to nudge the boy back from heartbreak to childhood.

Depp is a fine actor, but I found myself more interested in Radha Mitchell and Freddie Highmore, who nails his performances as Sylvia’s son Peter.
- Pete Voncer Haar, filmthreat.com
The youngsters give very mature performances, especially Highmore, who is exceptional.
- Jeff Vice, Deseret Morning News
Some of the best scenes in Finding Neverland occur between Depp and an immensely appealing young actor named Freddie Highmore (Two Brothers), who plays Peter, the youngest of the boys Barrie befriends. There’s a strong chemistry between these two, and I’m glad they’ll be together again in the upcoming Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Freddie Highmore is particularly solid as 10-year-old Peter Llewelyn Davies.
- Bob Strauss, dailynews.com
Freddie Highmore (Peter) and Nick Roud (George) are particular standouts among the lads. Freddie so impressed Depp that he is actually playing Charlie in the aforementioned Wonka remake – and once you see this, you will celebrate that casting choice! He is heartbreakingly grave and sweet. It is impossible to imagine such youths today, but they have all the gravitas, manners, mannerisms, and innocent minds that are unthinkable in a child of today.
- Karina Montgomery, Cinerina
Eleven-year-old Highmore radiates with the depth and intelligence of someone twice his age. His onscreen chemistry with Depp is palpable, and it is easy to see why Depp requested that the young actor co-star with him again, playing the title role in the upcoming "Willy Wonka" remake: "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory."
- Eric Melin, lawrence.com
But Highmore's winsome Peter pretty much steals every scene he's in, no small feat when you're working with stars of the stature of Depp, Winslet and Hoffman. He is exactly right as the no-nonsense kid who thinks those facts need to add up until his childlike wonder and imagination are stirred by Barrie and his stories.
- Jean Lowerison, San Diego Metropolitan
It seems almost unfair to single out any one of the boys, but Freddie Highmore, as Peter, displays an intelligence and emotional transparency that experienced actors twice his age would envy.
- Arthur Lazere
The jewel in the cast is 12-year-old Highmore. Not since Henry Thomas in "E.T." has such a young actor held the screen with such emotion. His work with Depp is spot on perfect. In fact, they worked so well together that Depp recommended Highmore to director Tim Burton and will next be seen with Depp in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory."
- Michael A. Smith, crazedfanboy.com
Barrie pays particular attention to little Peter (Freddie Highmore, in the most outstanding child performance of the year), who particularly wants to be grown up and have it over with.
