Absolutely the worst movie.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

A modern retelling of Robert Louis Stevenson's classic tale that portrays our cast "IN SPACE".The action and atmosphere are excellent, and the father-son bond that builds between Jim and Long John Silver is another highlight of the film amid is a great example of "show, don't tell".The only things that I'm not a huge fan of are Morph and B.E.N. Both characters can be very annoying at times, especially B.E.N. (no offense Martin Short...)Overall, it's a fantastic adaptation with a few errors here and there.

Once again I discovered a movie that makes me surprised I haven't heard of it before. Apparently it flopped. Why, I don't know. It really is a pretty decent animation movie.It takes the old story about the Treasure Island that is loved by many and transfers it into space. Now this is where I have some complaints. I mainly watched the movie because of it. As a child I loved outer space stories and seeing a beloved adventure in outer space could be awesome. But for some reason it really doesn't feel like an outer space adventure. It still all looks like the old setting just with some characters looking like they are not from Earth. This kind of disappointed me personally. I wish they went further and made it more of a space adventure.But other than that it is a pretty good movie. We have the male protagonist trying to find himself and his destiny. And we have some other characters that help him on this adventure. We get some even to wonder about if they are good or bad.The animation is done really good, the voices are well selected and I absolutely liked the fighting and chasing sequences that were done in a very beautiful way,I have no doubts most kids will like the movie unless they also won't have enough of the space in it.

For some reason, animated movies that involve the science fiction genre tend to do poorly at the box office. "Treasure Planet" was one such example, not even managing to return a third of its budget at the domestic box office. I'm not sure what exact reasons audiences at the time ignored it, but I have a good guess. While the idea of mixing pirate culture from centuries past with futuristic technology does give the movie a unique look and feel, all the same it feels kind of weird. That's not to say that the movie lacks interest. It moves along pretty well, following the classic "Treasure Island" novel more closely than you might think. There's action and humor along the way as well. All the same, in the back of my mind I wasn't able to totally accept this world I was being shown. It seemed a little forced, as well as unbelievable. So I think this particular Disney movie is best reserved for a child audience, since kids are more often than not willing to accept the weird and unusual. Parents will find it watchable, but I think they will consider the movie kind of strange as I did.

I thoroughly enjoyed Treasure Planet! It has likable characters, great animation, a good pacing and amazing voice actors. My favorite voices in this movie are John Silver (Brian Murray), Captain Amelia (Emma Thompson), Mr. Arrow (Roscoe Lee Brown) and Scroop (Michael Wincott). But the absolute best thing about this film is the relationship between Jim Hawkins and John Silver. Jim gets the father figure he lacks, because his dad apparently left him. Speaking of his dad, the flashback during the song "I'm Still Here" makes me cry almost every time. But Silver cares for Jim, but is still a pirate who wants his treasure. That interaction between Jim and Silver is just great! Scroop is actually a more scary character than the leader of the pirates himself!Of course there are some of those comedic characters that can seem either out of place or annoying. Personally, I find Morph entertaining, because he is a quite clever take on a futuristic parrot, not mimicking other people's voices, but transforming into other people. B.E.N. on the other hand can be REALLY annoying, but he is not a pointless comedic character without a role in the overall plot. The fart joke kind of pirate had me smiling a little, but is rather pointless. There are also some things about the setting which are never answered. Like how they breath in space, but I can live with that. After all, it is a fantasy film.Really underrated movie which despite its flaws and unanswered questions about the setting. I highly recommend it.
