Ok, I like kick ass chicks and this isn't the first time I've seen Geena Davis in a role where she played one. Nothing about this film worked, though. It never lets you catch your breath. Every swash is buckled and every action is adventured nearly non stop.
It's also quite gross how a few things happen, added with we're totally pulled out of the action when the she pirate jumps off a wagon and runs through a building at the same rate as the horses to catch it at the other end. Lame.
Thar be pirates every which way, matey. Watch Captain Blood instead. Not as much chick action but plenty more goodness.
North Bend, Coquille, Bandon and Myrtle Point have the DVD. Check out Dora and Coos Bay for the VHS.
