Average, 24 October 2000

After 85mins, you will say "Seen it before" and you have. This is another swashbuckler starring Errol Flynn and it's pretty average, run-of-the-mill stuff.

The story is okay, but I don't think Errol looked that good in this one. You have the love interest and the villain, end of story.

The acting is okay, nothing bad, but not spectacular.

The widescreen frame is beautifully done, the entire width is used with perfection. Shot in Cinema Scope. The photography is quite realistic, the British certainly know how to light a film.

Overall, this is average stuff. You'd be better off watching The Sea Hawk.
