“Much of the naval action is realistically and thrillingly staged with blazing cannon fire and slashing swordplay that sufficiently diverts attention from the sometimes unrealistic special effects.”
Justin Lowe, The Hollywood Reporter · 60
“A turgid, foursquare naval epic.”
Ben Kenigsberg, The New York Times · 40
