Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
Stylish, but overbearing musical.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
[Gene Kelly's] ever-present grin, muscular dancing, and torrentially physical acting are fascinating if not infectiously aggressive.
Film Comment
3.5 stars out of 4 -- [T]his smart sendup of swashbucklers deserves its cult, thanks to Kelly's jockish footwork...

All told it's an enjoyable work, albeit one of the director's minor films.

Judy Garland at her sexiest and most comedic, all at once.

Rating: 3/5 --
Brilliantly conceived box office failure with Judy and Gene.
Kansas City Kansan
Rating: 3/4 --
The Pirate takes place in some Caribbean of the mind, with lots of shadows and lace and high mantillas, and it's all about the promise of sex; the film keeps tapping into a nervous, adolescent sort of fear and desire.
