Storyline

- TriviaNear the conclusion of the movie, just before Jimmy captures Charlie the duck, there is a Volkswagen Beetle with the license plate OFP 857 and inside the vehicle is a Great Dane. The tag was the very same as Herbie's in The Love Bug (1969), another Disney movie starring Dean Jones that was the first in a series of "Love Bug" films. The dog is the same breed as in The Ugly Dachshund (1966), also starring Dean Jones.
- GoofsKatie hands Albert his lunch bag, telling him that the applesauce is on top, which suggests that there are other lunch items in the bag. Later, when the chimpanzee opens the sack, there's only the applesauce.

Jimmy Dooley: I didn't want a duck! I wanted a puppy!
- Crazy creditsDuring the opening credits, an animated duck lays six eggs. Then, it places a "1" and a "$ " before these eggs. After it adds commas, the eggs turn golden with a cash register sound. The third egg then expands and blends into the opening scene.

Featured review
Solid '70s Disney.
"Million Dollar Duck" may not be considered a classic but not every Disney movie needs to be one to be enjoyable. This movie always hits the spot. There are quite a few laughs and the last twenty minutes or so are exciting. The cast is fine. The story moves along at a nice pace. There are way worse ways to spend an hour and a half.
