Critics Consensus

Though its characterizations are weaker than usual, Treasure Planet offers a fast-paced, beautifully rendered vision of outer space.

Decent Films

By following its story as closely as they have, the filmmakers have retained much of what made the novel a classic.

Rated: B+

Chicago Reader

It's laced with literate humor, and the directors cite N.C. Wyeth's illustrations for the 1911 Scribner's edition of Treasure Island as the inspiration for their marvelously detailed fantasy world.

While there are pieces of a great film scattered throughout Treasure Planet, the film is a clear disappointment.

A splendid adventure film that doesn't mistreat its characters under the weight of the most hackneyed archetypes of the company. [Full Review in Spanish]

Behind The Lens

Another artistically masterful animated classic from Disney, Treasure Planet is like a super-nova, energetically exploding in a panorama of eye-popping candy colors.

Amazing movie a must watch fir anyone who loves pirates. I recommend this to anyone who loved the Pirates of The Caribbean but want more sci-fi. perfect character development, and you don't need to turn this into a sequel because it is perfect the way it is. Loved the dynamic between Silvers and Jim and the fact you don't get any reason as to why Jim's dad left amazing idea. Absolutely a rewatch every now and then.

Treasure Planet is one of my favorite Disney movies — a stunning blend of adventure, heart, and imagination. The world-building is incredible, the visuals are beautiful, and the action sequences are endlessly entertaining. Silver stands out as one of Disney’s greatest villains: hilarious, heartfelt, and genuinely menacing — I highly recommend this film.

Disney takes the classic of Treasure Island and gives it a sci-fi overhaul with stunning visuals and a perfect voice cast. Not your typical Disney fare, but imaginative enough to stand on its own as an animated classic.
