Reviewers and Disney fans either find this movie an underrated and ambitious classic that should have been more successful or a bizarre and rather boring failed experiment.experiment.
** Perhaps the most divisive aspect of the film and what is likely gonna make it or break it for a lot of people is the overall setting, which combines the WoodenShipsAndIronMen setting of the original ''Literature/TreasureIsland'' with an sci-fi SpaceOpera setting. Some either find it to be an incredibly cool, distinctive and creative setting that makes it stand out from other adaptations of ''Treasure Island'', while others find the mix of two inherently opposing settings to be too bizarre and off-putting for it to work.

* MagnificentBastard: [[AntiVillain John Silver]] is a [[AffablyEvil jovial]], [[NobleDemon honorable]] {{cyborg}} doubling as a pirate captain in his lifelong quest to find the titular "Treasure Planet" housing the legendary treasure of Nathaniel Flint. Tracking down the map to Treasure Planet on the planet Montressor, Silver burns down an inn seeking the map, and later insinuates himself and his pirate crew to join the RLS ''Legacy'' on its own expedition to find Treasure Planet. Casting himself as a lowly grub cook to avoid suspicion, all while growing close to the young man in possession of the map, Jim Hawkins, Silver eventually orchestrates a [[TheMutiny mutiny]], taking over the ''Legacy'' and holding its crew hostage to force Jim to help Silver decipher the map. Successfully finding Flint's treasure, Silver ends up [[HeelFaceTurn sacrificing the unending troves of gold and jewels to save Jim's life]], having grown to [[LikeASonToMe genuinely care for him as a surrogate son]], and slips away at the end of the film with no punishment for his crimes, utterly content and happy with the fact that his quest for riches instead lead him into a friendship with Jim -- even giving Jim the final parting gift of Silver's treasured pet Morph.

** [[PosthumousCharacter Captain Nathaniel Flint]] was the most accomplished and [[TheDreaded most feared]] space pirate in the history of the Etherium. In life, Flint made away with enough ill-gotten loot to fill the core of an entire planet, and in death, Flint's trove became the eye of every treasure hunter in the cosmos. Not even the shrewd and cunning Silver and his band of pirates are ultimately able to make off with his treasure, as Flint was so thorough in rigging Treasure Planet with death traps to ensure [[NoMacGuffinNoWinner the treasure stayed his]], even post-mortem, that only a few doubloons survive. Even as a decaying skeleton, Flint is the only one ever able to truly appreciate his hard-earned treasure, a testament to the pirate whose greed was so vast that he made his name a literal legend.

He is also shipped a lot with Silver, and on the crossover slashy side, [[WesternAnimation/SinbadLegendOfTheSevenSeas Sinbad]], WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}} WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}, or [[WesternAnimation/{{Anastasia}} Dimitri]] are popularly shipped with him. Let's just say for a film featuring one of Disney's (Renaissance-onward) rare celibate heroes, the fans really like the idea of him finding more adventures out there...

* WinBackTheCrowd: Like ''WesternAnimation/AtlantisTheLostEmpire'' before it, it tries to draw in an adult crowd with its highly thematic sci-fi settings and story, along with fantastical effects and large amounts of action along the way. It received considerably higher praise than the aforementioned film, but not enough to secure success at the box office. History, however, has proven kinder to it and it is now a beloved CultClassic.

* FanficFuel: The fact that there exists a [[https://animatedviews.com/2014/buried-treasure-the-ill-fated-voyage-to-treasure-planet-2/ canon plot]] for the sequel that was never made, it certainly has some fans taking it and running with it. Fan works of Kate who would have been Jim's LoveInterest (a cute human-looking alien with lion-like features) aren't hard to find, while the most popular scenario, whether inspired by the abandoned sequel or not, is usually to have Jim and Silver reunite somehow.

* SignatureScene: Silver's encouraging speech to Jim ("You got the makings of greatness in ya'") is often remembered by fans as the most heartwarming and iconic scene of the movie, and a go-to speech for many needing uplifting words in their own real lives.

It's doubly heartwarming when director John Musker apparently based it on a real life speech he'd received as a young boy from his football coach that ended with both of them in tears.
