A dead Captain, a pirate map split into three pieces, and an evil adversary- all spell out a swashbuckling tale of fun and danger! All that's missing... is a twist. And you couldn't get a bigger twist (in my opinion) than the Captain and hero of the story... being a heroIN.
They couldn't have picked a better actress to play the lead in this film. Tall, wild red hair and a commanding voice, it was the prospect of a female Captain that cannonballed me through this film- not that I needed persuading. The story is simple, but has never been done before to my knowledge. The female lead takes on the responsibilites of Captain, fighting to find her father's treasure and win the hearts of the crew- all the while fighting off her ambitious caniving Uncle.
I particually liked the costumes in this film, and the sceneries of the pirate ships were brilliant. The supporting characters all added to the enjoyment of this unique pirate adventure experience. If you like pirate movies, you should watch this film! I'd recommend watching before buying, because though I find it hard to believe, this film might not be to everyone's tastes.
