In an Adventure with Scientists Commonly known as Claymation (though the elaborately rendered miniature sets & figures are constructed with high-tech Plasticine) the process involves painstaking manipulation of physical forms to create the smooth movements & clever nuance of character that made Aardman famous with their iconic Wallace & Gromit shorts & the features Chicken Run & Flushed Away The source material is a series of books by Gideon Defoe that are of the for-kids-&-grownups-alike variety which means The Pirates! is perfect family fare that has plenty of intelligent asides to counterbalance the wacky & slapstick shenanigans The story is set on the tropical high seas & in the heart of Victorian London where Queen Victoria herself (voiced by Imelda Staunton) has a starring role The movie takes giddy pleasure in making her out to be a nefarious no-goodnik who has plenty of secrets though none of the lacy unmentionable variety The real star is the Pirate Captain (a husky-sounding Hugh Grant) who&s more interested in procuring cured pork for his ship&s regular " Ham Nite" feasts than plundering for valuable booty This becomes kind of a problem when he enters the Pirate of the Year contest & finds himself up against the stiff competition of Black Bellamy (Jeremy Piven) Cutlass Liz (Salma Hayek) & Peg Leg Hastings (Lenny Henry) all of whom have oodles of jewels & doubloons to back up their bids But the Pirate Captain has a bird in the hand that may win him the prize yet His ship&s mascot Polly is not a parrot as he & the crew believe but rather the world&s only surviving dodo so identified by Charles Darwin (David Tennant) when his famous ship the Beagle is attacked by the pirates Darwin assures the captain that Polly is worthy of winning him Scientist of the Year & untold riches So it&s off to London & into the malevolent schemes of both Darwin & Victoria A madcap series of events leads to an air-sea showdown of breathtaking proportions that blends meticulous stop-motion technique with top-flight CG effects Throughout the movie the attention to detail is sensational even in the most throwaway gags An underlying cleverness is woven into every precisely composed scene adding to the overall sense of comic timing & the meticulous elements of story that imbue every movement The laughs come fast & furious especially in several elaborate set pieces that include a wild bathtub ride down a seemingly endless staircase & the bravura finale that swoops & soars through over & around Victoria&s behemoth of a steampunk sea vessel The speed of the jokes & the sophisticated action never overshadow the wildly amusing story & dotingly-thought-out character details Among the lovable & eloquently voiced ensemble pirate crew are the Pirate with a Scarf (Martin Freeman) the Albino Pirate (Anton Yelchin) the Pirate with Gout (Brendan Gleeson) the Surprisingly Curvaceous Pirate (Ashley Jensen) & the Pirate Who Likes Sunsets & Kittens (Al Roker) But more than anyone it&s co-directors Peter Lord & Jeff Newitt who are primarily responsible for deftly keeping The Pirates! afloat in what could easily become another memorable Aardman franchise --Ted Fry Language English Subtitles Hindi English ...
