Watch Pirates of Treasure Island For Free

hyped garbage

Don't listen to the negative reviews

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

The cover looked very nice, artistic. That was it. I'm sorry but I stopped watching this film after about 30 minutes. Scenes were long and drawn out, entirely shot on built stage sets. Acting was not bad, it is just that it didn't fit the film standards. I believe this acting style belongs in a theater...but in a high school theater. I've been acting my whole life, and now I am a film student, production, at University at Buffalo. I am 20 years old and I can say I do have some experience under my belt. Hell I was in a movie when I was 4, in Europe. It's called Psalm and it is actually on IMDb.com. Given this I can say this movie sucked. Actually sucked would be a compliment.I just recently read the forum posted by Leigh Scott. He thinks zombie flicks are the last on the intellectual scale of movies. He might had some degree in film criticism or what ever, but he can not make a movie. Does he really think that DEAD MEN WALKING is on par with Romero's DAWN OF THE DEAD, or NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, or the new low budget masterpiece FLIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD. I'm sorry Leigh, but each one of these zombie movies has a social commentary, and it's more than just zombies. Have you ever thought of zombies as the terrorists. NO, think about it and you'll appreciate them more. And no, I am not a single punk male with nothing to do other than writing reviews.I simply take a moment of my life to write a review and save people some pain and misery. I'm sorry but I now a good movie when I see one, and yours are not.

This DVD is on the TV now. Hired it for my kids.Watched the trailer first. I lie. I started to watch the film, found the first 5 minutes totally incomprehensible then decided to watch the trailer. Released "summer 2006" said the trailer. That set alarm bells ringing since it's only April 2007 now.I reckon this one went straight to DVD.The sound level at the beginning of the film was overly loud. I figured out why after a while. It's because the sound engineer had screwed up and you couldn't hear any of the pathetic dialogue, so they'd just upped the volume in general to try to get round it.It is terrible; like an amateur movie. The accents and pronunciation are lousy (worst British accents I have ever heard) and the acting is simply appalling.I couldn't believe this film was made in 2006 - it seems much older because the general quality of the film is so poor. Honestly, save yourself the bother and don't bother hiring this film for your children, buying the DVD as a gift or watching it on TV. I think this is one of those films that went straight to DVD.Yup, the worst movie I have ever seen. We are about to turn it off.

This movie has nothing to do with Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. Poorly put together with a terrible cast, and awful dialog. The actors can't even deliver a line with french accent.Lance has come a long way from being "brilliant" in Aliens. The people behind this load of poop had to be kidding. Too bad there are no funny lines in it.This is a plastic-bag with the label "Instant pirates, just add crap" This movie just hurts. Nothing more to say but to add this quote..."Patience my dear, we're going to an island. I'm sure there be plenty of bitches for all of us"

As I was watching the display of some of the most awful attempts at acting that I've likely ever seen, I kept wondering, 'Is this a spoof? Is this the Hollywood version of phishing?' OK. You go in and rent a movie for the evening and see the pirates splashed on the cover and think, 'Oh, a costume drama, as it were.' Besides, there's Lance Henrikson, the poor man's version of Clint Eastwood-- you know: tall, rangy with the same tight-lipped twang and contempt-filled scowl in the eyes-- it's gotta be OK. Well, even an old movie watcher like me can get taken in. This strange, discombobulated version of RLS's classic, with the name changed only slightly and the same list of characters slotted into different roles, with characters out of the rejects of a small town high school play, is not merely terrible, it's amazingly awful. I kept looking for a point in which it would be obvious that this was a lampoon but the whole thing kept lumbering on, taking itself a lot more seriously than it deserved. I mean they pulled out ever device you can think of, from snatches of Jules Verne's Mysterious Island with huge insects to jumping around on a staged deck, supposedly in the midst of a raging storm at sea. After viewing this debacle, my wife and I were both left wondering: "How they were able to create this parody of an attempt at entertainment with a straight face?"
