Query: Great acting, poor excuse for a story line

Considering the cast, I had such high hopes for this movie. And while the cast did indeed dazzle, the adaptions made to the original story were unnecessary and down right ridiculous. The writer decided making the squire into something he never was was more important than showing the evil of the pirates as they trounced over all the good men on the crew. A very dark, unsettling adaptation too. Not for younger viewers. Stick with the Disney version for kids under 10 or so.
