Geena Davis did the Pirates of the Caribbean thing a decade before Mr. Depp. And did it a hell of a lot worse. Basically Renny Harlin failed to take into account the fact that it's supposed to be a period pirate film and directed it in exactly the same way as he did Die Hard 2, explosions and all. Although everyone is dressed as 17th century pirates it has zero sense of period and therefore it's frankly laughable.

This movie is just horrible. The acting is awful and the writing is a joke. The action scenes are very generic and honestly very boring. Maybe if this was a made for TV movie I wouldn't feel so ripped off by it but it wasn't it was a big budget movie and it just doesn't work. I mean really Geena Davis as a pirate captain? It just doesn't seem or feel right. If you want a god pirate movie go watch pirates of the Caribbean skip this one.

A disaster of epic proportions - figuratively and literally. Just because you throw money and something doesn't guarantee success. You also have to have a good story, dialogue, acting - you know, something people might enjoy. Deserves its shame.
