This movie does not deserve the bad rep that it has. Epic production values, epic camera work, epic set design, epic special effects, and epic miscasting. I felt there were really only two things wrong with this movie: Geena Davis and Matthew Modine. While both are capable actors, both were too contemporary for a good old fashioned swashbuckler. With her endearingly goofy grin and his preppy presentation, Maureen O’Hara and Errol Flynn they were not.
