Review

Director Harlin's attempt to make his wife Davis into a blockbuster action heroine is fun for awhile, but this pirate adventure is without a brain in its well-costumed head. A return to the swashbuckling sagas and serials of the 1930s, Cutthroat Island is the familiar story of buried treasure, coded maps, uneasy alliances, treacherous kin, barroom brawls and narrow escapes and capped by a big sea battle at the end. The real draw of the movie is not its script, but its spectacle. And the film succeeds in its several setpiece action scenes, including a bar fight, the climactic ship-to-ship battle and a carriage chase through a crowded market. Unfortunately, the few merits the film does have will probably be lost on the small screen. Davis and Modine do most of their own stunts, which the director -- in Jackie Chan-style -- makes obvious with a zooming camera.
