Angered at stern Uncle Daniel, Toby Tyler runs away from his foster home to join the circus, where he soon befriends Mr. Stubbs, the frisky chimpanzee. However, the circus isn't all fun and games when the evil candy vendor, Harry Tupper, convinces Toby that his Aunt Olive and Uncle Daniel don't love him or want him back. Toby resigns himself to circus life, but when he finally realizes that Tupper lied to him, and that his aunt and uncle truly love him, Toby happily returns home once again.

Despite a pleasing cast, 'Toby Tyler' fails to entertain. It's an OK premise, with a cute 'friendship' between boy and chimp. However, I just didn't enjoy it for large portions; it's quite plain. That's not to say it's a bad film, I just wanted a more satisfying 95 minutes. Kevin Corcoran, at this point in his career at least, isn't a great actor it must be said. I don't dislike him though, just nonplussed about his performance. At least his character is written better than he is in 'Savage Sam'. Henry Calvin is great in this, as Ben. He's likeable in the 'Zorro' films too, I appreciate what he gives here. One of his co-stars from those aforementioned productions, Gene Sheldon, is also a joy in the role of Sam. Bob Sweeney, portraying Tupper, is also good. I hold no hard feelings with this, it's just I believe Disney have done far better live-action films up to this point.
