A Colonial shopkeeper's apprentice (Donald O'Connor) becomes a pirate and sets out to rescue the governor's ward (Helena Carter).

Maclean's Magazine

The script could have been more imaginative, but in its limited way this is a diverting burlesque on pirate swashbucklers.

Similar in feeling to The Court Jester this takes a genre, the pirate film, that is usually played straight and pokes gentle fun at it while throwing in a few songs and dances along the way. Beautiful color and production design.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
