I liked it! Thought it was pretty good even though the middle of it was pretty slow.

The acting was good and the ending had a nice little twist!

About my only real complaint would be the last battle scene. It was hard to distinguish who was killing who? If it was really like that back then I wonder how anyone indentified anybody?

Good flick. I watched this on cable Wed night.

I thought the fight scenes were cool - with the cannons & swords & stuff.

It was neat to see how they repaired the ship after the 1st battle.

I'm thinking there will be a sequel.

I like this movie a lot. Yes it gets slow in parts. That is part of the feel of a sailboat/pirate type movie, to me anyway.

Hope they make more of these.

This movie had the feel of a European movie. It's all character driven. The plot just kind of moves on without any distinct direction. Probably why I enjoyed it!

I really need to rewatch this one. We had to watch with the volume turned way down and the accents were killing me. I missed half the dialog.

Every time I see this title I think about a contest. It has the seamen.
