The first 10 minutes seemed like something GREAT was coming but then it REALLY slowed down. The special edition looks fantastic but I think I will pass. I may be in the minority but who also has the same opinion?

This film was, to me, about the interesting characters and subsequent character development. If you think this movie is going to be about fighting on the high seas in the early 1900's or intending somekind of overblown action flick you will be disappointed.

I was hoping for an extended edition. I thought the film was a bit rushed and could have used more character development and interaction.

this is why I am very interested in seeing the 'deleted scenes' section of the DVD, there is supposedly some 26min of expository/character development footage.

I found this movie to be pretty boring and there was no real theme behind it. I wasted money to see it in the theatre, will not be wasting money again to buy it on DVD.
