The Pirates

Fun and entertaining! It has good action scenes and the dialogue between the characters is priceless. It does have a moment where the movie kinda drags, and there are some random subplots that weren't really necessary, but overall it's a great popcorn flick. All of the characters are great and have interesting character traits, the plot is ridiculous, but in a funny way, and it will keep your attention from beginning to end! Totally recommend.

The film is in the vein of what our Hollywood pirate films of the 40's and 50's were like. There is much derring do and tongue in cheek not to mention over the top humor in this adventure about a lady pirate and her troubles with the opposing men folk. This swashbuckler sure does and is a fast two and some hours long. There is no wonder why this film was one of the top grossers back in the East.

This is not the greatest movie ever made. There are a few flaws - some of the attempts at humor fall flat, mainly because the comic scenes sometimes go on too long. The CGI effects are distracting. I wanted more swordplay and better action choreography. However, this movie is still superior to anything that has come out of Hollywood in recent years. It's not stupid. Orlando Bloom isn't in it, and that alone almost makes it worth watching. The best thing about it, though, is Ye-jin Son plays the greatest film pirate ever. She is fantastic as the captain of the pirate ship. I hope she plays this character again and again.

Better than Pirates of the Caribbean. All four of them. Even the first one. The Black Pearl one. Over the top plot but very well paced, scripted and acted. Well done and exciting action sequences. Perfectly timed comedy. Oh Dal-su is hilarious as the pirate/bandit in one of his greatest roles (and the dude has been in a TON of movies). Everyone else is good as well. Super fun flick.

I think this is the first Korean movie I've seen and the 2 hours went by really quickly. Great combination of swashbuckling fun, humor, and drama. Great CG too. Reminds me of Cutthroat Island except the lead actor and actress did not have as much chemistry on screen as Geena Davis and Matthew Modine did in Cutthroat.

Not one of the best asian battle scenes that I've seen Very Fairy tale like.

What a fun movie! It's nonstop action, excellent special effects, kick ass fight scenes, awesome stunts, a bit of romance, and even comic relief! This film has a bit of everything! Enjoyed it very much!

This is a fun and enjoyable movie, somewhat similar of course to a certain Disney franchise, but it does its own thing and does it well enough that said franchise may have taken inspirations from it for sequels. It is in all subtitles for the digital version but if you don't mind that and want a action adventure this is a good view.

very good

Blu ray came just fine. Loved this movie. It was hilarious! Watched it more than once. Had to buy it. Reminded me of POTC.

Saw this in a at our local picture house and brought this as a reminder

Very entertaining. It's pure enjoyment, if a bit silly. It can be funny and ridiculous. What more do you want?

Blu-ray is US version so I was sceptical does it really play on region 2 player. I trusted Valerie's word and can now confirm that it plays perfectly on R2 blu-ray player, thanks.
