Where to start? Decisions; decisions!

Rating: Null/10 (10 July 2003)

*AVAST THERE, MATEY! SPOILERS, DEAD AHEAD!* This movie harkens back to the Disney live-action comedies of the Fifties-to-Seventies. Funny jokes; non-graphic spookiness; fast-paced action; special effects that live up to the name; dialogue that doesn't condescend to the audience; and, of course, great swordfighting. In fact, the swordfights could rival anything from the old "Zorro" series (starring Guy Williams), or the climactic duel in "Hook" (starring Robin Williams)!! Some of the sight-gags from the actual ride are also present, and faithfully re-enacted. *That dog, for instance, was smarter than all four of those prisoners put together.* And, best of all, it's rated PG-13, rather than. . .AHRRRR! So, forget all those Terminators, Hulks, and Angels. Weigh anchor and shamelessly set sail for this flick!
