Movie Reviews of Treasure Island
Movie Review: Treasure Island Rev.
Summary: 4 Stars
Disney's version is pretty damm good! I have watched both versions back to back. I will still have to give the edge to the original (1934 movie). Would highly recommend Disney's version. Edge to the pirates in original, edge to Robert Newton as Long John Silver, edge to Jackie Cooper in original movie especially in closing scene, Bobby Driscoll does a fine job but Cooper is better where it matters. Overall I am proud to have both of these movies in my collection.Movie Review: Outstanding movie - where are the extras?
Summary: 4 Stars
I loved this terrific adventure movie as a child, and I find that it still holds up quite well after all these years.
This DVD loses one star because although the transfer is very good, it is slightly flawed. And the utter lack of extras for this milestone film in Disney's history (it was the studio's first live action feature) is inexcusable.
Movie Review: Treasure Island
Summary: 4 Stars
This summer I read Treasure Island to my six-year old grandson. The Treasure at the end of the book was this movie. This was the first book with no pictures he had ever read (listened). The book and the movie paralell closely. Much of the dialogue was Stevenson's prose from the book. The combination was fun for both young and old.Movie Review: 4 Stars
If you read the book as a kid and enjoyed it you will like this movie.Great for the whole family.Mild violence compared to most films out today that deal with action adventure.Robert Newton as Long John Silver gives a great performance.Movie Review: Not as good as the book
Summary: 4 Stars
If you enjoyed reading the book as much as I did you might be disappointed with the film. The film cut good character development that I felt was sorely needed. But you can't help but to enjoy a good ol'pirate movie.
