7/10
I'm interested, but not enthralled

Warning: Spoilers
I started watching this because I love John Malcovich. I've seen two episodes so far and it's not bad. I think I will stick with it for a while. TV shows are in such competition these days. There's a lot of really good stuff out there. They could give movies a run for there money. I'm not big into pirates and stuff like that, but so far this is holding my interest. Malkovich plays Black Beard and he does a pretty good British accent, which doesn't surprise me. He's a quality actor and I'm surprised he took on a TV roll. So far this British navel officer, get captured by black beard and taken to his island where kind of a democracy has been set up. So far he is just trying to do all he can to stay alive and he's pretty smart. The script is pretty smart and it has good production value. There was a pretty gruesome hanging scene in it, but they need to step it up a bit more with the intrigue and stuff. I'm interested, but not enthralled and if that doesn't happen eventually, I will give up on it. There is just too many other good shows to waist my time on one that isn't awesome.
