... is lovely, very funny, sweet, exciting, fast but not hurried, with the same sense of fun as Curse Of The Black Pearl and the best supernatural swordfight since then.
And it has so many people from TWH it's kind of alarming. It starts almost immediately with Nathaniel Parker and barely lets up from there. (And we now have a shoo-in for a young Chase in the event that the 1973 episode ever happens.) And I didn't even recognise Henry Cavill despite his being a bit typecast - blonde and moustached does not suit him.
It's not up there with The Princess Bride, but it's well worth going to see.
(And if you go to the Best Of The Fest screening at 4.30 on Sunday it's only a fiver, which is cheaper than a normal ticket nowadays...)
