Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Not exactly the most seamless adaptation ever attempted, this animated version of Robert Louis Stevenson's classic swashbuckler (now set in outer space, even if the "ships" appear inexplicably unchanged since the 18th century) at least benefited from Disney's always high production standards. Those factors also insure that James Newton Howard's orchestral score is serviceably effervescent and retro enough for the film's storytelling gambit--if still a long way from the heights of Korngold's triumphant, genre-defining music for The Sea Hawk and other Errol Flynn swashbucklers; call it Captain Blood-lite. The studio's marketing-driven desire to have it both ways has also awkwardly sandwiched in a couple otherwise pleasant John Rzeznik-penned modern rock tracks, "I'm Still Here," performed by the Goo Goo Dolls singer himself, and BBMak's slightly funkier take of "Always Know Where You Are." --Jerry McCulley

A Fantastic Score For A Great Movie.......2007-06-16

Definitely one of the--if not the--most underrated Disney movies ever. Of course, such an original concept got swept up in the intent to maximize the market-ability of the movie. Admittedly though, "Treasure Island" in space is hard to pull off, but this movie does, in part to the great score behind it. To balance a traditional 'swashbuckling' genre score with sci-fi twists can be no easy task, but its managed greatly in this soundtrack. A definite must for anyone who liked the movie and a great suggestion for anyone else.

A review based on the samples. (No, I don't have the CD...yet.).......2007-06-04

I shall be rating this with stars, 5 stars being awesome and one star being lame.

1. I'm Still Here (John Rzeznik): 5 stars. I love this song!

2. Always Know Where You Are (BBMak): Um, ok, why did they put this song on the soundtrack again? 2 stars.

3. 12 Years Later: Kind of a quiet song, one I would listen to while writing. 4 stars.

4. To the Spaceport: Awesome! Kind of sounds like one of the songs from the movie "Dinosaur". (No surprise there, because James Newton Howard did the scores for both movies.) 4 stars

5. Rooftop: Wow. This song is beautiful, and it is most definately a song that I would listen to at night to lull me to sleep. 5 stars.

6. Billy Bones: Way to switch me from "lull me to sleep." to "creeping out!" 4 stars.

7. The Map: Yay for the Chronicles of Narnia people who put the first part of this song on their movie trailer! This song is DA BOMB! 5 stars.

8. Silver: Rock on all you Newfies out there! (A Newfie being slang for a Newfoundlander, or somebody that was born on Newfoundland.) This song goes out to you and smacks of the seas and the east coast. It totally fits Silver who must be either Newfie or part Newfie. (I'm sure he is, but don't bet on it.) 5 stars.

9. The Launch: Hmm. I'm not so keen on this song, but it's probably just me. 3 stars.

10.James Newton Howard really shines in one of his best musical pieces. Wow, I think this song sums up Silver and Jim's father/son pretty well. 5 stars.

11. Jim chases Morph: Meh on this song too. I love Morph though. He practically steals the movie. 3 stars.

12. Ben: Um, yeah. I don't really like this song too much. 2 stars.

13. Silver Bargains: And we are BACK TO AWESOMENESS! I love this song. It's rather bittersweet. 4 stars.

14. The Back Door: Ooh, this song has suspense weaved into it. Me likey! 4 stars.

15. The Portal: This song reminds me of in the movies when the main character tampers with something too deadly for them (like magic), and it ends up morphing them or attacking them. Sort of a "I messed up with something beyond my control, and now I'm paying for it." kind of tune. 4 stars.

16. Jim Saves the Crew: W00t! Mega freaky action music! And more of the same "Playing with fire" feelings that we got from The Portal. 5 stars.

17. Silver Leaves: Nice, soft, heart-touching music to finish up an excellent CD and movie. 4 stars.

I LOOOOOVE THIS MOVIE!!!!.......2007-03-15

I love this movie, first of all. some of my friends didn't like it, but oh well they have their opinions. this movie rocks!!!! i love the soundtrack. Especially "I'm still here." Now my little brother loves this movie, that makes 2. :-) i want this cd!!!

Great songs.......2006-08-04

I loved the movie even though no one else seamed to like this movie like I did. Well after a few years... (ok a little more then a few) I broke down and tryed to find the cd to one of my favorite movies. And now its on its was here and im very happy. For the reviews I read that have not seen the movie I highly recomend seeing it. I think having a none love story film was a good idea. This deals more with becoming an adult and taking resposibility then getting the girl. I like this film and I like the music. Buy it you wont regrat it!

Always Know Where You Are.......2006-07-11

All right, I'm not really under 13 (I'm 18), but it's so much easier doing this than signing up and yada yada. Anyway, I loved this movie so much. I was hooked on "I'm Still Here" for like a year. But, now I love "Always Know Where You Are". But, what irritated me so much was that I wanted to version that is on at the end of the movie that's sung by John Rzeznik, not BBMak. I just think they make the song way too pop-ish, where are John Rzeznik has the grunge sound of the Goo Goo Dolls. So, I looked around LimeWire for what felt like forever trying to find the right version. But, I finally did find it. So, my only disappointment was that it's the BBMak version and not John Rzeznik. I think his voice is simply beautiful and there's no reason why they couldn't put that version AND BBMak's on the soundtrack.

But, oh well. I guess that's what happens when this movie is considered Disney's worst movie ever. But I think they're wrong! This movie was wonderful for children, teens, and adults like. Sure, it didn't have the traditional love story like most other Disney movies, but I like how it veered away from that. Anyway, I'm getting off topic. I love the music to this movie and I was suprised to find it was James Horner that composed it. I just thought, "Isn't that the guy who did Titanic?" So, I was glad that he made his music sound different and not as intense as Titanic's was. In my opinion, Titanic's music was a bit violent, but hey. It wasn't a kid movie like Treasure Planet it. But, there you have it. A great movie and a great soundtrack!
