Movie Reviews of Disney's DuckTales The Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp DVD

Movie Review: A Treasure Trove of Fun and Adventure
Summary: 5 Stars

This is quite a rare treasure in movies. It was back in the time when they took great care in animation, and movies were done in a way that any age who has appreciation for good comedy, light adventure would enjoy, and a little heart pounding action. Brought out from one of the best TV series ever made. DuckTales The Movie Treasure of the Lost Lamp. Is indeed an instant classic. Watching this movie now as an adult I still throughly enjoy it's cheerful antics and well created story. No matter how many times I've watched it, I still never get tired of it. And though a lot of movies no a days seem to short or too long. This one has about the right amount. It's hard to believe that it's only hour and a half at the most.

The story starts out with Scrooge, his nephews, Webby Gail, and Launchpad all going to Egypt to investigate the diggings where his hired crew is searching lost treasure of Collie Baba. Soon they find the treasure. After all of this it is stolen from them leaving them with only a small oil lamp. Which happens to be more then it seems. Soon Scrooge and company are tossed into whirl of Genies, wishes, and villainous characters all after the lamp.

Fun thing about this story is unlike the TV show which is usually filled with the same guest villains such as Beagle Boys, Magica De Spell, Flint Heart Glomgold, and ect. This one has two new ones a evil sorcerer name Murlock, and his greedy pit pocketing partner, Dijon. Both very well done. Murlock even used to scare me a tad bit when I was little not enough to hide under a blanket though.

This movie also is something that any child of any age could watch. It has no bad mouth words as some movies for even children now a days see in films. Which can be somewhat depressing in a lot of ways. Some parents can be very careful what they let their kids watch. And this movie is very clean, and kid proof.

Another thing is the animation. Unlike a lot of knock offs and sequels to TV shows have been later on in the year that were poorly drawn. Try watching the TV show for a while then watch this film you will see a noticeable difference in them. While the animation was still well done. This was even more well drawn then the show was. Showing they put a fair amount of work in it.

Contrary to popular belief this movie is not a rip off from Aladdin. It wasn't set in the time period of Arabian Nights for one things. And another thing is it was brought out in 1990 two years before Aladdin came out. So I'd like to say rumors you heard weren't true if you see the relationship in a way you could say the movie Aladdin copied the movie itself but to each there on thought.

Also this has been compared to Indiana Jones. True there are some of the same qualities. But the treasure hunt wasn't just to send it to a museum like Indy does. Yes there were booby traps. But ask yourself. Why wouldn't a thief who wanted to keep his money hidden. Set traps for his enemies? Don't always think inside the box. Think outside too. Plus if your an adult and you don't want your kids seeing Indiana Jones yet. Good for you I didn't see it till I was older. This is a good thing for young children to see I can assure you it's very safe. Even my parents who were very protective let me see it. But that doesn't mean older people won't appriciate it, because it's tons of fun for all ages.

Now to talk about the quality of DVD itself. While I am a bit unhappy with having no special features. I suppose Disney decided because it wasn't the biggest hit in the box office that it didn't really deserve royal treatment. So besides a some what fun game there is nothing else to do. But really if you enjoy the film it should matter to you about if there is any bonus features or not. Compared to the VHS version this is well done. They really seemed to make an effort to restore it to the original version from when it first showed in theaters. Though there is a bit of ware in it. That could be expected since this movie is over 16 years old. Though I suppose they could have fixed up a little more. We should be thankful for even getting to see this movie come out on DVD. That sound is great though and a that has been restored to it's brilliance. The voices lip sync perfectly with the characters mouths unlike some DVDs that have problems with doing that. The music is great too. Very catchy and fun.

One let down on the whole thing is that fact that the movie is so rare, and so far as only been released at Disney Rewards, and Disney Movie Club. If you do decide to buy it I would go towards Disney Movies. Because Disney Rewards, and Ebay are rip offs. When you could get the film for 19.99 just by signing up for the Disney Movie Club.

Though there are those things to go through. This movie is still worth owning by anyone. I wouldn't recommend buying a used VHS though because those are worn out and have none of the brilliant picture you get on the DVD itself. Plus the fact the VCR could eat it one day. So yes I say this indeed a movie worth owning by anyone who loves the fun, adventurous, comedic, and just plain comfortable type movies. Then you will surely enjoy this film.
