Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Stands out as a gem - although some plot changes for the sake of agitprop make it a flawed one.

fresh:
Treasure Island may move at a snail's pace, but it's a modestly entertaining snail.

rotten:
It offers more of a realistic than a romantic take on the material; that isn't to say it's a more convincing one.

rotten:
Aside from pretty scenery, however, and perhaps sympathy for the topnotch British talent who join in the field trip, there's scant reason to sign up for this voyage.

rotten:
Settles into boredom quickly, meandering at a glacial pace through mutinous developments and character shifts that could have used a punch-up at the script level.
