In Search of the Castaways
Monday, December 17th, 2007
Okay, I’ll admit that today’s viewing was pretty much intended just to catch up on the numbers, lol (I’m so close to 365, I’ve just gotta make it before the 31st lol!), so I wasn’t expecting much anyway. This one’s just the kind of Disney live action they made, seems like, hundreds of. Hayley Mills is in it a lot more than I expected when I bought the DVD years ago (so long ago I was actually surprised it still played in the machine ROFL), and she’s of course worth watching for. There are some interesting visual effects – all of them dodgy, of course, but interesting nonetheless. And it’s a lot more random in its story than expected too, really an adventure movie rather than the high seas shenanigans and swashbucklery I thought I was in for. I couldn’t summarize the plot if I tried – my attention really wasn’t with it – but I certainly wouldn’t object to watching it again.
