Bring home surefire Disney fun starring classic comedians Dean Jones, Sandy Duncan, and Joe Flynn. Research professor Albert Dooley (Jones) is stuck with past-due bills and one downy, dense lab duck. But an ordinary bird turns extraordinary when he is accidentally zapped with radiation and casually starts laying the proverbial "golden eggs." Cashing in on newfound riches becomes a sidesplitting scramble as the secret gets out and friends, neighbors, and government T-men mount an all-out quack attack to capture the rare bird. It's heartwarming hilarity that will keep the whole family in stitches!

Family Fun

Another fantastic family movie. Great for any age. Very funny and totally free of any shocking scenes. One you can enjoy over and over.

Million Dollar Duck

I am delighted to see that two of my favorite Disney films have been released on dvd, "Million Dollar Duck" and "The Barefoot Executive." Descriptions of the plots for these movies are already noted here, but I will say that both these films are very enjoyable family viewing. I can remember going to the theater as a child and watching these films, and I still enjoy them today. Nobody's claiming they're the best films ever, or even the best Disney films ever, just good, fun entertainment in the grand Disney tradition.Some have complained about these films not being released in their original aspect ratio's, or being remastered for dvd. Although I would have preferred them released letterboxed as well, neither film was released in a very wide aspect ratio, so they play fine on tv, and as for Disney using the same masters they used for the vhs releases and tv airings, if that's what they did, big deal. Those prints are fine. Sharp, clear pictures, with good color.Sure, it would have been nice to have remastered letterboxed versions on dvd, but be grateful we have them on dvd at all. They've both been a long time coming.

Be careful what you wish for...

This Disney family comedy was released theatrically in 1971, and aired on the "The Wonderful World of Disney" television show in 1974, '79, and '82. Dean Jones and Sandy Duncan (in the dippiest role of her life) are married couple that is having a hard time making it. Their son wants a dog, but they can't afford it. The father is working at a laboratory that uses animals as test subjects for intelligence, and his duck subject is a failure. One day it gets gamma rays by accident and the boss says, "Get rid of that duck". The duck becomes the boys pet, but begins to lay golden eggs. The family wants to take the duck for their own use and gets greedy, upsetting the boy. It turns out the duck will only lay eggs for a certain sound and watching Dean Jones try to attempt this sound is hilarious. The government is trying to track down the source of the eggs that keep showing up around town. But the party is interrupted by a hostile neighbor that works for the IRS, and leads up to a wild car chase by the IRS agents and this leads to tons of slapstick humor.

Jimmy want a puppy

But his father comes home with a duck, a duck that lay solid gold eggs.

Where is the boxing?

I guess that this was my fault, but it was an honest mistake. I bought this movie hoping to see Hillary Swank bounce around In a sports bra, then break her neck. I popped a bowl of corn and got a nice glass of lemonade, and settled in for two hours of bouncing and breaking, but that didn't happen.
Instead, I got sandy Duncan and Dean Jones in a romantic romp about a duck that lays golden eggs. It was a good film, and I'm glad I own it, but does that boxing movie even exist? I can't find any clues anywhere!
