My parent rented this film for me and my brother when we were about 10/11. We rented it so often (every weekend) the guy at the shop let my parents buy it in the end. We continued watching it pretty much every day for 5 years until girlfriends came on the scene. The VHS was replaced because the 1st copy gave up the ghost. Anyway the film it-self is fantastic. Basic story line about a pirate who wants more than sailing the seas and wants to meet girls. On reflection its more of a musical type film as there are many hilarious songs and dances. My 2 daughters (5 & 2) along with my 3 nieces and 2 nephews love film like GREASE, HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL and yes HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 2. The PIRATE MOVIE is very much like these musical films, i.e boy meets girl, singing dancing with some sort of story line. Take it from me this film is Funny and can be watched be young or old I love this film and watching my family watch other musical films got me thinking. Tried digging out the old VHS was fine but actually having a Video player to watch was another thing. So my search begun and sure enough not available in shops but good old EBAY. I was surprised to know that the Pirate Movie was released on DVD in 2003. Shame on me for waiting so long. No anymore, bought this morning for a mere £5.98 including postage. I simply cant wait and my kids, nieces & nephews await with baited breath. So what are you waiting for!!!!! Search for the Pirate Movie staring Christopher Atkins garyjs8877Read full review
I first saw this movie when I was about 10 years old (in the 1980's) and loved it. I thought the songs were brilliant and funny. The characters were excellent and costumes colourful and typically 'eighties'. Since buying this DVD and watching it through 'grown -up' eyes with my own 10 year old daughter, I saw it differently. I understood the inuendoes, noticed more risque accessories to those costumes, watched what was going on in the background with the supporting actors and realised you could see it on a different level. I still absolutely LOVE it! However, if anyone watches it for the first time, be warned .... it is VERY cheesy. There are moments when the actors talk to the camera which are a bit cring-worthy. I recommend this film to all 10 year olds and then to be rewatched as adults!!!Read full review
I bought this DVD because this is a movie I loved many years ago and was feeling rather sentimental. I love the light-heartedness of this movie and the completely tongue in cheek style in which it is made. Looking a bit dated nowadays but not so dated that it spoils the movie
I just love this film, l used to watch it when l was a child with my sisters and brother. Its a very funny film with lots of singing. I could watch the film over and over and not get bored. when the music and singing is on, you cannot help but join in. Great film to watch with the family, you will love it!!! Great Buy!!!
