I totally disagree with a lot of the reviewers here, I think Errol Flynn is terrific in this film, and proves what a great actor he really was. He brings the character of Mahbub Ali alive, and although it's essentially a supporting role, he's the main reason to watch this film, young Dean Stockwell if fine as Kim, probably his greatest child role in fact. The colour and spectacle of the India of the time are also visually very appealing, I don't know how close or not it resembles Kipling's book, as I haven't read it, but as a colourful stand alone, boys own adventure film, with some great atmosphere, I think it's great, Flynn has some great dialogue, and delivers it with his usual aplomb, in fact I think his final line at the end of the film, is one of the great closing lines of cinema, and perfectly suited to the character, and, the great Errol Flynn.
