This Disney movie based on Robert Louis Stevenson's novel, "Treasure Island" is a very unique blend of computer animation and regular animation and they do it very well. Although at times, they try to be too funny, it turns out well. It is basically the classic plot of young Jim Hawkins (Gordon-Levitt) who finds a map to Treasure Planet, which contains all the treasure of a long lost pirate. He boards with Captain Amelia (Thompson) and is assigned to be assistant to John Silver (Murray), the cook who is a cyborg, half humand, half robot. Jim and Silver develop a father son relationship and find that they care for each other. But Silver has bigger fish to fry. Through discoveries, Jim finds that Silver is planning to take over the ship and the map and take the treasure for himself. Jim gets the remaining crew off before the seige. They camp out on the planet and meet a friendly robot, B.E.N. who leads the way to the treasure.
