FILM REVIEW - TREASURE PLANET (2002)
๐ฅ Director(s): Ron Clements, John Musker
๐ฌ Series: N/A
๐ Where: Home
๐๏ธ Score: 7/10
I've wanted to watch Treasure Planet for the longest time, so it's fitting that I watched this with my friends on International Talk like a Pirate day!
There isn't much I remembered about this film going into this, but the animation is pretty nice, and the film is conceptually incredible. There are some really striking settings, including that crescent moon, the aforementioned Treasure Planet, etc. I only wish the film was longer and more of an odyssey so we could see even more places.
Where the film really suffered in my eyes was the characterisation and dialogue - Jim Hawkins and Silver are both pretty fleshed out characters, and I love Morph, but every other character feels like a shallow caricature, only there to fill out the background. They really ran out of ideas by the time they thought of the farting pirate and the annoying robot. I just think this world deserves a better story than a beat by beat remake of Treasure Island. Still an enjoyable movie though.
