Hugh Grant does a great job leading the voice cast in this fairly straightforward animated adventure - and it's a great shame that it is straightforward and not the classic it could have been because the clay animation is typically superb from Aardman, and it's packed to the gills with some fun British humour with lots of witty Victorian and piratical details: one of the pirates has a "Blue Peter" badge on his hat for example, the check list for "Pirate of the Year" includes the option "Brian Blessed" as the top level of roaring (slightly less funny when he later pops up as the Pirate King) and the Elephant Man has a hilarious cameo in a pub scene, but the script never really takes off and the really innovative and fun moments are few and far between. Also, and it does seem like a strange criticism but none of the main pirate crew have names - I guess a hang over from the original series of books (hence the strangely clumsy title too) - as a result I felt it took too long to get involved with them as characters, although the burgeoning, presumably unintentional, romance between the Captain and Number Two was very sweet.BadFluffy
Disappointing, especially coming from Aardmanchunkylefunga
Yawn.DerekFME
Pleasant enough but nothing special.Earring72
Pleasant kids movie but also fun for the grown ups. Hugh Grant does some good voice work. Funny :-)BENtoTHEchen
only let down by the slightly predictable plotBeasleyOnFilm
Really good fun. It strikes the perfect balance between jokes for kids and jokes for adults.hugeposuer
@Abasaqa: Check the lost and found for your sense of humor.vivienblue_06
The animation is great, you can see (well if you observe) how the characters is completely different from each other.Scratch47
Sweet, fun, and friendly. And really funny. I loved it. I was also high when I watched it, but hey, I still loved it in the morning! Go see it!RabbitDrive
Predictable, which is fair enough for a kids film, but it could have actually been funny. Fine if you're too young to know the meaning of "good film", below average if you're not.Nijichan
@Abasaqa : FOR SCIENCE ! of course !Abasaqa
Why did they show Darwin such a bad person?Is revolution still a big deal?

I didn't like it.

Too much focus on action setpieces and storytelling, when the clever jokes and references is what attracts me.Skyscore
