No rough stuff, Old Lady...be nice........2006-06-16
Peter Ustinov ad-libs his way through most of this film and Dean Jones does admirably as his straight man. Together they make a great double act that kept me laughing all the way through. Throw in a moustachioed villain with the wonderful name of Silky Seymour, some batty old ladies, a load of slapstick and a cheer-raising athletics contest and you have a great couple of hours of fun for adults and children alike. Highly recommended.
HIllarious.......2005-09-12
Aww man! this is a classic walt disney masterpiece. A hillarious story of a pirate called blackbeard who is held in limbo until he performs a good deed. Blackbeard gets his chance when he helps the local track team who haven't a chance of ever winning anything, this warm hearted comedy will have you laughing from the moment he arrives to the moment he leaves! a must buy for all the children!

THE GREATEST DISNEY FILM EVER MADE?.......2003-08-16
This has to be one of the greatest live action Disney films ever made. It stars the excellent Peter Ustinov as the ghost of Blackbeard the pirate, who returns to torment the long suffering Dean Jones. The acting is excellent and the dialogue is genuinely funny, specially from Blackbeard himself, who is a loveable, hilarious, mischeivous character.
This has to be better than the classic love bug movies. (Thats saying something.)
The director also made the classic Mary Poppins.
