Black Sails is a thrilling and well-crafted series that elevates the pirate genre to new heights. Set in the golden age of piracy, this gritty and intense prequel to Treasure Island masterfully blends historical events with fictionalized accounts of legendary pirates like Captain Flint, Charles Vane, and Blackbeard.
The show excels in its character development, weaving complex and morally ambiguous arcs that keep viewers invested throughout. Toby Stephens as Captain Flint delivers a powerhouse performance, portraying a leader torn between his ideals and darker instincts. Each major character, from the fiery Eleanor Guthrie to the cunning John Silver, is layered, making their alliances and betrayals all the more impactful.
The writing is sharp, with intelligent dialogue that goes beyond the typical action-adventure fare, touching on themes of power, freedom, and loyalty. The show also doesn't shy away from exploring difficult social issues adding depth to the storytelling.
Visually, Black Sails is stunning. The high production value shines through in the meticulously detailed sets, breathtaking naval battles, and sweeping cinematography. Every sea battle is choreographed with precision, offering a visceral, edge-of-your-seat experience.
While the pace may be slow at times, especially in the earlier episodes as it sets the stage for larger conflicts, the payoffs are consistently worth the build-up. As the show progresses, the stakes only grow higher, leading to a finale that ties the narrative threads together in a satisfying and thought-provoking way.
In short, Black Sails is more than just a pirate show; it's a complex drama filled with political intrigue, intense action, and richly developed characters. It stands out as one of the best series in the adventure genre, blending history and fiction into a swashbuckling epic with real emotional weight.

The story is very good; despite the annoyance of several characters whom one would wish to see them dead, but the continue to live throughout the season !
Nonetheless, it's all part of the act I suppose; and the cinematics and filming was beyond incredible.
When viewed on 720 or 1080p quality, the viewer actually feels they are in the Caribbean in the time where the filming took place. The Nassau island looked just as real as it did in the past centuries.
Other than that, I'm sure all viewers appreciated the fact that it took more than 300 people to build one of those ships used for filming the series.
Overall, I'm sure looking forward for another season.

Black Sails is absolutely one of the most underrated shows ever. It was so good that I binged the entire series in a week. Everything about this show is damn near perfect...the writing, acting, cinematography, production value, costumes, all of it! You can tell the effort they put into this show by the attention to detail in every scene. The acting and writing are so good that you really come to care about what happens to these characters. This is by far the best series I've ever seen about pirates and definitely a show that is for adults. I was hooked from the very first episode through to the very last. Every season is fantastic.
Black Sails is just a flat out awesome show that is so addicting that once you start watching it, you can't stop! It's the prequel to "Treasure Island." It didn't get nearly the attention that it deserved at the time and that's probably because it was on STARZ when they were just branching out into original tv shows. This was one of their first big budget tv shows and it's worth every second you put into watching it! People are finally starting to find out about it now that STARZ has become bigger and more well know with shows like Spartacus, the Power franchise, Outlander, etc and is on streaming sites like Hulu. We still got 4 amazing seasons out of it though.
I can't believe how low the score is on imdb for such a masterpiece. This show should be rated much higher.
All the actors were amazing in this show. You could really feel the passion for each individual character portrayed by each great actor.
The writing was top tier with the twists and turns in the entire story. Each and every writer involved in this series should give themselves a pat on the back, as they are all amazing and talented. You should be proud of your skills.
The camera and editing teams were amazing. You outdid yourselves in every way possible.
For the other team members such as costume, set and FX crews as well as the rest of the team, you all went above and beyond. Absolutely amazing!
This show should be above a 9 in my opinion and I personally rate this show a 10/10. I re-watch this show at least once a year, and as a writer myself, I don't think I could top such a plot with such skill involving the world of pirates.
This show is a 100% must watch! You won't regret it!

- CuriosidadesChris Larkin (Berringer) and Toby Stephens (Flint) are brothers. Their parents are Dame Maggie Smith and Sir Robert Stephens. Anna-Louise Plowman (Mrs Hudson) is Toby Stephens's wife.
- Erros de gravaçãoThe language spoken is questionable throughout the series. There is no agreement on when the F word came into being as a swear word; the educated classes are constantly saying "you and I" when it should be "you and me"; and there is regular use of "excuse me", which is a more modern Americanism, instead of "I beg your pardon".
- Cenas durante ou pós-créditosThe opening titles are a montage of white statues depicting the lives of pirates, incorporating black skeletons and dark oceans.
