Critics Consensus

It certainly lacks the polish and creativity of other Disney animated features, but DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp delivers an action-packed romp with decent humor and plenty of diverting silliness.

Not a patch on the detailed Disney animation of yore, but pretty solid children's entertainment.

Nowhere near up to comparison with even The Jungle Book, but several cuts above rival studios' work.

Rated: 4/10

New York Daily News

It concentrates on old-fashioned slap-stick humor instead of trying to match the wit and imagination of some of Disney's more memorable cartoons.

Rated: 2.5/4

It just wants to provide a good grin. And that's what "DuckTales" does.

The picture is much wilder and woolier than any cartoon feature to come from the Disney studio in many years.

Rated: 3/4

"Lost Lamp" is more Indiana Jones than Carl Barks, only not as exciting as that should be.

DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp is an outstanding five-star animated adventure that I absolutely love. With its thrilling story, lovable characters, and fun Indiana Jones-style excitement, it delivers an entertaining and nostalgic experience. Scrooge McDuck, Huey, Dewey, and Louie bring charm and humor, and the film’s mix of treasure-hunting and magic makes it a fantastic ride. A true gem for DuckTales fans!
