This movie is very entertaining. It doesn't take itself too seriously - seemingly aware it is only based on a theme park ride - it's funny, and very watchable. It is a bit long, but I didn't mind. Depp is consistently enjoyable in this film. Rush is excellent, as always. And, Bloom shows he has some range - I look forward to seeing him in more challenging roles in the future. I liked that in the end, after all was said and done, there really weren't any terribly "bad guys." It was simply a good time. Very refreshing, swashbuckling, and clever. I will watch it again.

Mostly because of the theme song this TV show has stayed with me for 32 years. Yet, if I ever asked anyone else if they remembered it (singing the song in hopes of loosening a memory) they would look at me as though I was truly mad. It was a silly, stupid show ... like a mutant creation through the coupling of Gilligan's Island and Lost In Space ... and I loved it! I was nine, what did I know? Still, I would like to see it again to find out if the pictures in my head match.

Later in this forum someone calling themselves Mariner719 will mention that the rendition of the theme song was twisted among his/her peers to, "It's about time, it's about space, it's about time to slap your face." No fear Mariner719, I had equally bizarre peers. :)
