It’s been a while since I’ve seen this…I wish we had gotten a half-dozen of these, and can’t figure out why we didn’t? (A friend in my movie club pointed out that this came out the same year as the first Pirates of the Caribbean film, and it might be as simple as: only one boat franchise allowed at any given time.)
I enjoyed the rhythm of this movie: scrambling on the deck, cannons firing, then time for a string duet. More cannons, then David Attenborough time on the Galapagos islands. Etc., etc.
Weevils joke still pundefeated.
