As a film geared toward children, Bustin' Bonaparte meets its main requirements: it adapts a classic novel in gleaming cinematic form, and it ridicules the foibles of ruthless adults.

The children occupy the center with thoughtful and assured performances, nailing the refreshing moral that skepticism leads the way to better truths.

As it is, Bustin' Bonaparte is an enjoyable diversion, but with more energy and style it might have been a gem.
