Critics' reviews

"A grand and glorious entertainment. Six or 60, the spectator is bound to be caught up in the magic of this thrilling quest for fabulous wealth."

The New York Times
"Disney's first totally live-action movie, and it is, by far, the best film version of the familiar Stevenson story"

TV Guide
"It's a very good adaptation of the original novel that maintains the core themes and characters while at the same time making it distinctly 'Disney'"

IGN
"[It] has been handsomely mounted by Walt Disney. Settings are sumptuous and a British cast headed by American moppet Bobby Driscoll faithfully recaptures the bloodthirsty 18th-century era"

Variety Staff: Variety
"Newton's eye-rolling Silver has been much impersonated but never equaled. Disney's first live-action feature was vividly shot in Technicolor by Freddie Young"
