Warning: Spoilers
I have heard of many versions of this famous book by Robert Louis Stevenson turned into a film, the only other one I have seen is the Muppet version. But this only other version I have seen is actually pretty good for action, adventure and actors playing memorable characters. I think you know the story, but I'll explain it anyway. Jim Hawkins (young Christian Bale) finds a treasure map and he gets the help of Dr. Livesey (Julian Glover), Squire Trelawney (Richard Johnson, and of course, Captain Smollet (Clive Wood) to take them to the island of treasure. Only the one problem is that one member wants the treasure for himself, one leg short Long John Silver (Charlton Heston). Also starring Oliver Reed as Captain Billy Bones, Christopher Lee as Blind Pew and Pete Postlethwaite as George Merry. Good!
