Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Despite the combination of Walsh, Darnell and Bendix, a mediocre swashbuckler with Sir Henry Morgan (Thatcher) swishing about on the high seas in pursuit of the deadly Blackbeard (Newton, overdoing the ham, as usual). At best, colourful; at worst, drearily predictable.Author: GA
