The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists.
It's fun, pacy, exciting, funny, featuring a quirky captain named - Pirate Captain (yep! last name Captain), a crew of amateur pirates, a Pirate of the Year competition, a secret society with a twisted hobby, Charles Darwin (who is, well, nuts) and a Dodo bird named Polly!!!
While stop motion may not look glamorous or refined and termed old school, when it comes to Aardman Animations, who brought classics like Chicken Run, Wallace & Gromit and Arthur Christmas, you can expect the best. The tweaked
Pirates!, compared to their previous projects, a bit by injecting a whole lot of humor blended with intelligent quirks. A gag-fest. The animation is detailed as expected (c'mon it's Aardman!), especially Pirate Captain's luxuriant beard - which was begging to be touched.
