Do not take it seriously
Aight, it's entertainment if you can bare absolute nonsense. I do wonder, if the writers of these movies research more than 1 min about, well, anything.
But, the cast indeed is great and gives it their all - and they are the reason that I watched the movie till the end.
In short: lost treasure. Several parties want to find it, due to different reasons. Adventure follows. Small romance plot. Kick-ass fighting (that indeed was good).
Now, because I have to say this:
Who in their good mind, any mind really, loads a ship's cargo onto the deck of a sailer (without securing said cargo in any way?!). Loading that much gold onto deck means, yes hon everyone can see it, isn't it shiny?! and, oh guess what, there are waves on the ocean. Wave good bye to that gold as soon as you leave port. And I am not even starting on the weight of gold and the freaking impossibility of a ship of that size holding that much weight (if there also is gold below deck that is, maybe the genius who put it on deck just left the whole treasure up there). And with that they got through all the turbulent sea stuff all till the island? Are you kidding me? Guess most of the treasure got lost on the way. Told ya, wave good bye to those gold bars. Ha.
Penguins are not animals that A want to cuddle. B can pull an adult sized human that struggles along with them in the water. C they smell like really really bad - you do not want to cuddle them actually. Exception might be if you smell like fish, and lay around patiently for a long time, they are quite curious.
AN ICE CAVE ON A TROPICAL ISLAND AT SEA LEVEL?????!!!!
Forget the story with a lot of holes in it, but this at least the writers could have gotten right. Thus my annoyance really, because this is basic stuff that's not that hard to read up about.
Anyhow, again, the cast was good. Really. I don't know why and how they kept me watching, and even got me to smile now and then, and yes, pine a little bit for certain characters, but they did. Kudos to them. NOT the writers. Gee.
