About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a whimsical, action-packed pirate comedy with lively humor and standout voices like those in Flushed Away or Tom and Jerry: Shiver Me Whiskers; Not for you if you prefer a more serious, tightly satisfying story.

Pros: very funny for families; charming voice cast; inventive visuals | Cons: simplistic story; not always warm; some repetitive jokes
