"The Pirates! Band of Misfits" is very funny, ranging from slapstick humour to subtle puns and historical references in the background. The film looks amazing and once it comes out on home video, it will be one of those films you can use to show off the difference in picture quality between Dvds and Blu-rays. There is so much attention to detail paid to every frame of the film that even if the main joke isn't doing it for you, there's something in the background that will make you laugh or catch your eye. The story isn't as strong as expected from Aardman studios, but it's still so much fun that it's an easy recommendation for children or adults.
