About this movie

Buckle up for thrills and excitement as a classic story of friendship, courage, and self-discovery gets an incredible futuristic twist for an all-new generation. A secret map inspires a thrilling treasure hunt across the universe as young Jim Hawkins and a hilarious cosmic crew headed by the daring Captain Amelia set off in search of their destiny. Aboard a glittering space galleon, Jim meets the ship's cyborg cook, John Silver, who teaches him the value of friendship and the power of dreams. Jim soon teams up with his crazy new robot pal, B.E.N., and the shape-shifting Morph to discover a treasure greater than he ever imagined.

Ratings and reviews

Based off an otherwise perfectly fine novel, Disney really let the ball drop on this one. The animation was enough to give even the most casual of moviegoers nightmares, and the "morals" in the tale were merely thrown in as a little something extra for those of us who look for a little something more then just being spellbound by incredible (and usually vividly-colored) landscape destruction. While BEN was mildly amusing, the other people were as lifeless as the skeletons they discovered in the all-too predictable climax. Silver's face was like a lump of play-doh, that longed to be shaped by more skilled hands. The captain was simply annoying, and the little dog-cat humor interlaced between her and the doctor/scientist was nothing short of LAME In short, no, I do not recommend. (PS: Someone sue Jim's barber for doing such a lousy job on his hair...)

2002 Movie... Keep that in mind if this is the first time watching this. A lot of skippable moments, to be honest this would have been better live action... But it was just OK.
