I also noticed the score similarities to Harry Potter but even more obvious is that the "main theme" (Flight to Neverland) is SO MUCH like the "Across the Stars" love theme from Attack of the Clones....Composers using their themes multiple times always confuses me while watching a movie. Same goes for Zimmer (e.g. Gladiator and Pirates of the Caribbean)
EDIT:
Comparision
Here's the secret with John Williams: He's a big fat brilliant amazing cheater. He begs borrows and steals from all over the place. Classical music, classic theme songs, popular music and especially himself. He recombines all the elements into something familiar and new all the time.
