Leave your thoughts about Blackbeard's Ghost.
| Video-Reviewmaster.comSteve CrumMiddling Disney a la Dean Jones and Peter Ustinov; OK family fare. |
| The New York TimesHoward ThompsonThe whole thing, by the way, shines in nifty color. But the real appeal of such wholesomeness is the brisk, unsugary serving, under Robert Stevenson's trim direction, and the consistently adroit humor, which sidesteps slapstick. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertThe plot is completely confused, and kids, who are much better at these things than adults, will enjoy its twists and turns. Ustinov is fine as the rum swilling, yo-ho-hoing Blackbeard, and there are several good scenes as he invisibly meddles with the big track meet. Jones and Miss Pleshette are amusing without being insufferably sweet. |
| Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)Bob BloomAnother stupid Disney live-action piece of inane cliches and situations. |
| Common Sense MediaScott G. MignolaA yo-ho-wholesome retread of Disney favorites. |
| User Reviewvicky wi was expecting it to be a bit boring but was plesently suprised and its funny as hell!! |
| User ReviewAbbas RFunny Movie and Best Movie I seen,. Seen it in German and English over 100 Times!!! |
| User ReviewMorgan WSo funny and a classic Disney story. Loved Dean Jones, of course and Suzanne Pleshette is gorgeous and comical. Dan was so excited that I hadn't seen it so that he could watch it with me for my first time :-) |
| User ReviewCharlie GInteresting and comical for it's day. Lot more delightful when I was young and it first came out but I feel it's a Disney classic. |
| User ReviewDavid PHonestly, these old Disney classics suffice my demand for a good film. I loved this one, a full-hearted comedy of the ghost of Blackbeard "tormenting" a man who made him visible to those who... I said too much. Rating:4/4 |
