Cutthroat Island

A film review by Christopher Null - Copyright © 2000 Filmcritic.com

Before there was Waterworld, there was Cutthroat Island, an overwrought period pirate movie that cost $92 million to make and earned about $12 million in the theaters. Put simply, this is The Goonies with grown-ups. Only the grown-ups should be embarrassed.
