About this movie

The Pirates of Penzance, Gilbert and Sullivan's classic musical comedy of mistaken identity, comes swashbuckling to the screen with all the laughs, songs and stars that made it a long-running Broadway smash! Kevin Kline reprises his Tony Award-winning role along with Angela Lansbury, Linda Ronstadt, George Rose and Rex Smith in the story of a roguish pirate king and his adventurous young charge who explore the coastline in search of treasure and romance. It's a fresh, funny and colorful extravaganza that's the very model of a modern movie musical.

All of the actors and actresses are very talented. and the songs are sung so well. the actors and funny, and have their own little flare. over all it is a fun, entertaining, family friendly, comedic, and great movie

A musical comedy with an awesome cast! Great entertainment my family has enjoyed for years and still does. It just doesn't seem to get old.

... marred only by inexplicable delay in the English closed captions. Still, my kids love this.
