Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaA dramatization by Norwegian author O. V. Falck-Ytter's "Haakon Haakonsen. En norsk Robinson" (Haakon Haakonsen. A Norwegian Robinson), an action-adventure story aimed at youths, it was inspired by Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe" and published in 1873.
- GoofsWhile the movie is set in the 1850's, there are several anachronisms in the uniforms and ships (too new, most likely from the 1890's), weapons (too old, around 1800's) and the major plot of pirates themselves, that had stopped being an issue by time.
Featured review
Better Than Average Family Film - Shipwrecked
The producers here tried to imitate The Black Stallion (without the horse) and Treasure Island (without the brutality and fear). The net result is a pleasant if not too thrilling family film about living the fantasy of being shipwrecked. In real life, the protagonist would most likely have been drowned, or died from exposure and starvation. But this is Disney. Those things don't happen in Disney world. A pleasant family film for an hour or so.
