Skip it. Despite the fun premise of a female pirate captain hunting treasure, this 1995 Geena Davis vehicle is remembered as a bloated, expensive mess that sank at the box office—and for good reason. There are way better swashbuckling adventures out there that won't waste your time tonight.

Plot

Morgan Adams and her slave, William Shaw, are on a quest to recover the three portions of a treasure map. Unfortunately, the final portion is held by her murderous uncle, Dawg. Her crew is skeptical of her leadership abilities, so she must complete her quest before they mutiny against her. This is made yet more difficult by the efforts of the British crown to end her pirate raids.
