I would highly recommend watching the film if you get a chance. I first saw it when I was about 10 and have watched it at least once a year since then (now I am 30 ). If you like comedy, adventure, romance, fairytales and of course pirates, it will be right up your street. Kids love that film too. It has Peter Falk from columbo and Fred Savage from the Wonder Years. If you haven't seen it by the time I meet you I will bring you a copy!
