Good Vintage Disney, 2008-05-23
I enjoyed this movie, as it is Disney in its golden era (60's and 70's). Ustinov as Blackbeard was a bit over-the-top in his acting, but Dean Jones and Suzanne Pleshette were wonderful, as always. I would recommend this film for the kids of today; they just don't make 'em like this anymore.

a great twist into the "life" of a ruthless pirate, 2008-01-27
This has been one of my favorite movies since I was a small child. My husband is a huge pirate finatic and Edward Teach "Blackbeard" is one of his favorites. When I first showed him this movie he loved this Disney twist on one of the most greusom pirates ever to sail the Spanish maine. Without stripping any of his authorotative persona Disney found a kid friendly (young or old) way to portray one of my favorite "villans" of all time.

Another title: "How a comedy movie should be", 2007-10-02
This is just a masterpiece of comedy movies! In the same words of Peter br /Unistov as Blackbeard, it seems that people don't know how to have fun br /anymore nowadays. I think that's the reason why I never saw many br /excellent comedies like that anymore. I love to see a great piece in the br /big screen, one of those who give us some reflection of life, some br /outstanding lines, epic portrayals of great men of our history and br /everything. But I also LOVE to strike a great laugh as well! And this br /movie delivers!! You just blow your head off of laughing, from the very br /beginning 'till the very end! The jokes are some of the best of all br /times!! Every single frame of this movie is a turbulence of nonstop br /laughing!! I just can't find words to say something bad about this br /movie, I mean it. br / br /How can one not give a single good laugh after seeing Blackbeard (Peter br /Unistov) put Steve Walker (Dean Jones) into trouble with a police br /officer? Or even, in the olympics where Blackbeard helps poor Godolphin br /team to win, specially when he messes up with the final competition, br /where he confuses every other runner simply using a hot-dog, a flag and br /a bottle of rum! THIS FOLKS, IS HOW EVERY COMEDY MOVIE SHOULD BE MADE!! br /I mean it! This is first class comedy! I first saw this movie when I br /had 8 years. I'm 26 now. And I continue to love this as much as I loved br /when I was a boy. br / br /This is, without a doubt a 5 star movie! And even giving this 5 stars is br /not enough, because it deserves much more! Perhaps, shouting the magic br /words (kree kru vergo gebba kalto kree) out loud can make some other br /picture like that appears around. While this isn't happen, get this one br /and have fun beyond your imagination!

Lots of fun!!!, 2007-08-31
This is one of my all time favorites by Disney. If you like the type of fun found in the original "Absent Minded Professor", you'll love this one.
