I loved it! Yes, it is made for the family audiences but it really kept me going for two hours! It is an action filled adventure on the high seas from the times when Britannia ruled the waves. It has it all! Action, pirates, sailors, ghosts and what not, but it really is entertaining! You have no other option but to take your kids to this one, you will not be sorry.

I especially liked Mr. Bardem as Captain Salazar, his acting is a little bit better then the rest but every actor gave hundred percent for this film and it shows!

Since this is my review 400 for IMDb.com I have to take an opportunity to thank staff at the Multiplex Cinema City Sarajevo for being generally kind and professional. Not to forget Meeting Point Cinema as well. I also want to thank IMDb.com staff for letting MOST of my reviews pass.

Oh, how did he learn to drive on the left side of the road so quickly? Now let me get serious:

Plot: Average at the best! I saw so many action filled films similar to this one that I could not get entertained that much. Yes, it is set in London and that gives a nice touch to the whole thing, but it so unrealistic that I could not get serious about this film. It is an interesting idea to give a convicted felon a life so he can have a house, wife, child and so on, but please give me a break. It is not realistic.

Acting: Acting is good and Mr. Costner really tried to give something so this film would get off the ground but it did not help that much.

If you like action packed films this is one for you but if you do not you can freely skip it.

Is there anyone truly free? This film tackles that question. Jan so desperately wants to escape his present life that he is ready to go to the lunatic asylum just so he can get rid of his past life which makes him so unhappy. Film is full of humor which is so connected to the Czech cinematography. Acting is excellent and I have to say that this film brings the best of Czech film making.

If you are lucky enough to be able to see this film you will not be disappointed. I strongly recommend that you obtain a copy somehow and watch it.
