Rewatched The Pirates on YouTube where it can be seen with ads. This was distributed by WellGoUSA so there’s a good chance it’s on Hoopla too.
Damn - 7 years and I almost completely forgot this movie. That’s ok. Kept it fresh. Only I do worry about my waning retention lately.
It’s still absurd fun and I stand by my initial review. The sword fights are have excessive slo mo but are amusing. The humor still works. The overall story flows along, losing a bit of speed in the 3rd quarter - it could’ve been tighter at an hour and a half. But it’s amusing enough for me to be eager for the sequel, which is now the top box office grosser for this year in Korea (it’s early in the year tho).
D00M recommended.
