I wasn't expecting much from the movie since it was made for TV, but it really turned out to be the best pirate movie I saw, definitely.
The characters are engaging, the setting is believable, the two main actors playing the brothers are simply perfect for the roles, and the soundtrack is really endearing. The only fault might perhaps be the visuals, the underwater scenes looking kind of weak, but the rest, sceneries, costumes and make-up is excellent all around.
The original movie is kind of long, but I saw the "Pirates: Blood Brothers" version which was a bit shorter, although you don't actually feel like the movie is long anyways, since it's so captivating that you never want it to end. You get to care for all the characters, and there's always intrigue and action to spice things up.
Without a doubt an adventure movie far superior to all the Hollywood ones that every fan of pirates stories should watch.
