Treasure Planet


Recently just watched Walt Disney's Treasure Planet, which was basically a remix of it's previous movie, Treasure Island. 

Long story short, Jim Hawkins, the protagonist, finds a treasure map that lead to Treasure Planet, a planet loaded with treasures, and goes on a journey through space in order to find the planet. 
Trailer:

I'd have to say, this movie was probably the most underrated movies out there. Sfter watching this movie, I check the ratings for it and was surprised to see that it ended up with a rating of 6.7 on IMDB. I'd have to say that this movie would probably deserve a 7 or a 7.2. Perhaps it was the fact that this movie was a remix that it received a lower rating?

Well, I thought the movie had a nice balance to it sci-fi wise. I mean, there were several mechanisms and stuff, that made the movie look kind of sci- fi, but then there was the fact that the people still sailed in ships through space instead of blasting off with a rocket, and that the towns looked like the ones in the 19th century. Not only that, but the movie was a nice retelling with it's own new stuff added.
