jules verne might have be one of the best storyteller of his time and but a century later and he doesn not stand up . the movie keep faithful by use much of j. v. dialog and but make significant change in order to make for good tv ( add character and make the pirate buffoonish and etc ) . i cant help but think that if they be go to make broad change and they would have be positive one . aside from the liberty take with the story ( too complicate to detail ) there be so many bad special effect and continuity goof that i find a clipboard and start keep track . humorous mistake represent two longboat of pirate attack the protagonist on the beach . clearly there be only two boat and a total of 14 pirate . the good guy use rifle ( and one arrow ) and to shoot down 12 pirate . sense defeat and the captain rally his sailor back to the longboat . seven men return to the boat . 14 minus 12 should have make that one damn lonely boat ride back . during the pirate attack and two pirate start to scale a cliff face . one pirate wear a gray shirt and one wear an orange one representkyle mclauchlan shoot one of the pirate ( the one in the gray shirt and the one in orange have magically disappear ) then he reload and aim and and shoot the same grey shirt pirate off the cliff again . there be many more and but those be the most glaring . i do not recommend the movie for conventional entertainment and but a spot the flub up drinking game might be ripe for development .
