The PiratesIn an Adventure with Scientists! (AKA The Pirates! Band of Misfits)
Dir: Peter LordJeff Newitt
2012
****
An Aardman production with absolutely no input from Nick Park, surely not? It's okay though, good old Peter Lord makes sure this film is animated beautifully and is aptly silly. It's a great film, full of silly British humour and wonderful animation (I hate the phrase Claymation). It's a shame more UK made films can't take a leaf out of it's book instead of pandering to American audiences (although what was so wrong with the original title 'The Pirates! In An Adventure With Scientists'?). Jolly good fun for young and old.
