There's a lot of problems in HOOK. But Julia Roberts as Tinkerbell was one of them. She was such a weird casting choice, she never really gelled as Tinkerbell or understood what made the character stand out.

In Roberts' take, Tinkerbell is sweet and cloying and even goofy. That's not Tinkerbell. She's pretty much a G-rated version of a bunny boiler. She's clingy and jealous and occasionally unlikable. Which is why Rebecca De Mornay would have killed it as Tinkerbell, has that ice cold blonde persona that can be sweet when necessary but with a odd vibe.

The way Tinkerbell is written in HOOK, I did feel Roberts made her too likable. It seemed like Spielberg was going for a more amoral take on Tink.

I mean, he turned the Lost Boys into a group of Punks led by Rufio, a bad boy.
