Anthony Dexter---bare-chested most of the film with the smoldering nostrils from "Valentino"---as "Captain Kidd" is saved from hanging by an Earl who wants to get his hand on Kidd's treasure. The Earl thinks the best method is to put a woman confederate (Jeanine Duvall) aboard Kidd's ship as a slave girl to wrest or wrestle the information from him. They fight a lot as a prelude to falling in love, and then work together against the evil Earl's none-too-well laid plan. Alan Hale, Jr. (Simpson) is along as Kidd's trusted friend, while Sonia Sorrell (as Ann Bonney) displays a lot of what the best-undressed female pirate wasn't wearing on pirate ships of the time.

| User ReviewPhillip SThis movie is not what the movie info describes. The story line is well down. The pace stays fast & the plot stay thick. |
| User Reviewjay nWhen I saw the title of this movie I didn't think I would watch it for more then 20 Minutes, I was wrong very wrong MGM has released this under there Limited Edition Series, But film openings show it being a United Artist Picture. Made in 1954 with a host of actors and actresses. Anthony Dexter Plays Captain Kidd and Eve Gabor is the Slave Girl. Also in the movie is Alan Hale Jr (Gilligan's Island Captain), and the mighty fine Sonia Sorrell playing Anne Bonney ( Sorrell on played in one other movie 17 years later in Harold and Maude. This film is about Captain Kidd being caught and hanged but he isn't dead and those in charge set him up to follow him back to his buried treasure. We see all the antics along the way, including putting up with Eva Gabor who couldn't be a slave girl if she tried. Still its a great classic, and anyone who enjoys those old Black & White Movies shouldn't miss this one. 4 Stars. |
| User ReviewStephen WI like older movies, but this one's title is a little decieving. The only "girl" in it, didn't show up til 3/4 way through the movie, and she certainly wasn't a slave. |
