Wonderful Film

The best historical film on Pirates I've ever seen. I have been a pirate fan for many years and when POTC came out I was thrilled that it was so fun and entertaining. Since then there as been a lot more interest about true historical pirates and their stories. Tim Prokop, the Director of True Caribbean Pirates, did an excellent job creating a documentary that is not only full of very interesting historical facts but also very fun to watch. I was very impressed with the format and the photography. The aerial shots were fantastic. The actors did a great job recreating the true character of each of the Pirates. I have seen it several times and thoroughly enjoyed it each time. There is still so much more about the Golden Age of Piracy, I hope to see more like this film. I am a collector of stories, books and films about Pirates, I can't wait to add this film to my collection.
