LOS ANGELES TIMES: Kenneth Turan
A lively, old-fashioned adventure yarn with just a twist of modern attitude, it's the kind of pleasant entertainment that allows the paying customers to have as much fun as the people on screen.Read Full Review »

ROLLING STONE: Peter Travers
Lavishly produced swashbuckler that should have been far more entertaining.Read Full Review »
