Treasure Island is a 1972 film starring Orson Welles based on the novel Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson.
It featured Walter Slezak as Squire Trelawney, Rik Battaglia as Captain Smollett, and Ángel del Pozo as Doctor Livesey.
Treasure Island (1934) is a movie adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s famous 1883 novel “Treasure Island”. Jim Hawkins (Jackie Cooper) discovers a treasure map and travels on a sailing ship to a remote island, but pirates led by Long John Silver (Wallace Beery) threaten to take away the honest seafarers’ riches and lives.
Treasure Island is a Disney film, based on Robert Louis Stevenson's novel Treasure Island, and was released on July 19, 1950. It starred Bobby Driscoll as Jim Hawkins, and Robert Newton as Long John Silver. It was Disney's first completely live-action film.
A sequel to the film, Long John Silver, was released in 1954, with Newton reprising his role of Long John Silver. Newton went on to play Silver again in a TV series, The Adventures of Long John Silver (made 1954-55), also shot at Pagewood Studios Sydney, and started (in Technicolor) before Australia had television!
Treasure Island (1990) is a movie adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s famous 1883 novel Treasure Island. Jim Hawkins (Christian Bale) discovers a treasure map and embarks on a journey to find the treasure, but pirates led by Long John Silver (Charlton Heston) have plans to take the treasure for themselves by way of mutiny. It was an original production filmed and aired by the TNT network, and directed by Fraser Clarke Heston.
The soundtrack was made by The Chieftains, and selections from it later surfaced on their Film Cuts album.
According to All Movie Guide, Charlton Heston "plays the character [of Long John Silver] as written: a cold, crafty, cunning rogue, by turns charming and deadly, but never to be underestimated". But reviews in 1990 were not so favorable: "The mast ain't all that's mizzen in a dreary and confused new production of Treasure Island...miscasting and embarrassingly poor performance of Charlton Heston as Long John Silver, a laborious mistake from arrival (in the second half hour) to departure. That Heston is one of the most humorless hulks who ever stood before a camera helps not a bit..." (Tom Shales, The Washington Post, January 22, 1990, STYLE; PAGE B8) Despite cult status, Treasure Island has yet to see a release on DVD. The video, now out of print, has gained a five-star rating on Amazon from customer reviews, and many of these complain of the lack of DVD-release. The film was also released on laserdisc.

A Mysterious Map, A Hidden Treasure, The Greatest Adventure Of All!
This film has nothing to do with Robert Louis Stevenson's classic story. Rather this movie is about the World War II naval base called Treasure Island that was located in San Francisco Bay. Set in mid WWII, two code specialists are hard at work trying to decipher Japanese messages and sending confusing messages to deceive the Japanese. However the film is more about the sexual mores of the day than about the wartime effort. It seems each of the coders has a secret. The first (Lance Baker) is secretly a polygamist, with one wife being Japanese-American that he keeps hidden away so she won't face detention and the other wife being sickly leaving her unable to go out, as well. The other man (Nick Offerman) can only have sex with his wife if another man is watching his performance. Written by John Sacksteder
