Editorial Review:
Description: The Bounty is on a mission in the South Seas. The brutal and arrogant Captain Bligh becomes antagonized by the genteel manner of the First Officer Christian Fletcher. While in Tahiti, the men of The Bounty are seduced by the gentle beauty of the island and its women. As they head back to England, life aboard the ship becomes unbearable. Fletcher seizes the ship and Captain blight is set adrift. The Bounty returns to Tahiti to retrieve the women, and once reunited, they set sail for a new life.
Amazon.com: Moral equivocation was a common trait among several of Marlon Brando's characters in the early part of his career, and so it makes good theoretical sense that he would play the role of Fletcher Christian, the tormented first mate aboard the British naval vessel Bounty. But in fact the part is an ill fit for the actor, whose British accent is poor and who never looked quite right in period costume, anyway. Director Lewis Milestone (All Quiet On the Western Front) makes a good-looking and at times (especially during scenes of shipboard cruelties and conflict) compelling movie out of the material, but overall the film just isn't there. --Tom Keogh

To call this re-telling of the 1935 cinematic classic a failure would be overly generous. It is a fiasco. In fact, it may be the worst big-budget movie ever made.
The antics that of Marlon Brando, who played Fletcher Christian, during filming have become legendary. He was often too drunk and spaced out on drugs to even read his lines from cards held up in front of him; he gained so much weight that he had to be filmed from different angles; etc. However, this movie would have a disaster even ...

Was familiar with the movie altho it had been a number of years since I'd seen it. It's excellent. The DVD was in good shape; delivery was as promised. Everything as expected.

The 1962 film based on the Nordoff/Hall book about the "Mutiny on the Bounty" is an under-appreciated work of cinema. Aside from the beautiful settings the characters do the story well. Trevor Howard's
Bligh is a cruel, inhuman taskmaster (even though the real Bligh wasn't
that bad). The Tahitians who were tricked into serving aboard the Bounty
wasn't brought out, but that is another story, outside the book. The crew
of the Bounty couldn't have been a better group of actors. ... Read More

Despite the negative reception this film received during its initial release (much related to Brando's infamous behavior on the set) this version of the historic mutiny is beautifully shot, intelligently scripted, and moves along at a good pace. Trevor Howard plays Captain Bligh as a truly misguided tyrant and commands attention whenever he is on screen. Marlon Brando plays Fletcher Christian as a gentrified dandy, that adds a very interesting dimension to the dynamics between the two leads, lending considerable ... Read More
