      Variety Staff Variety A bland, lethargic period comedy. Feb 5, 2008 Full Review Tom Milne Time Out An inconsequential but likeable romp. Feb 9, 2006 Full Review Vincent Canby New York Times The movie isn't as bad as it is unrealized, like a photographed steno report of the ideas thrown around at a story conference. Rated: 2.5/5 May 9, 2005 Full Review Penelope Houston The Spectator It's a cheerful, loose-limbed, lacka- daisical sort of entertainment: no more, but no less. Jul 5, 2018 Full Review TV Guide The cast is just marvelous, providing the right amount of zest and derring-do to make this film work. Rated: 2.5/4 Feb 5, 2008 Full Review Film4 Staff Film4 Inoffensive swashbuckler. Apr 17, 2004 Full Review Read all reviews
