The Million Dollar Duck (1971)

Craig: You never know what to expect when you watch a Disney 70s screwball comedy, without the benefit of having some nostalgia for it. Unlike most of the films from that time, I had never seen this one. I was pleasantly surprised. Dean Jones always delivers, and the supporting cast was great. Wikipedia says Gene Siskel walked out of the movie theater during its original showing. Really? That seems a bit extreme. Good story, great cast, predictable (yet heartwarming) ending.


Craig's review: 3.5 out of 5 stars


Michael: Another one that I remember seeing in the theater! I think this film has one of the zaniest chase scenes around!! I love it! Dean Jones and Sandy Duncan are great! Great story. Great family film.


I give The Million Dollar Duck 4 out of 5 stars.
