During that period Geena Davis' career began to cool because she was turning down other projects to keep herself available for CI. It's box office failure was due to the fact that the producers went broke, sold off the movie and the new owners dumped it into theatres with NO marketing. Artistically it was OK, neither great nor horrible, with a reasonable plot, decent action scenes etc. The weaknesses were in the characters, Geena D was chewing the scenery and Matthew M was wimpy for a pirate but that is also how their characters were written. I'd put the blame on Renny for that script and keeping Geena away from other projects.D Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13942398272041235746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-75849493758486715542018-03-31T07:58:44.034-07:002018-03-31T07:58:44.034-07:00@VDOVault "we're finally at a point where...@VDOVault "we're finally at a point where a heroic female action hero is a totally acceptable thing (Gal Gadot & Wonder Woman)"?<br /><br />Finally? Female heroes have been accepted for ages, they just used to be less common. 1995 was also the year Xena: Warrior Princess started and that was popular, no one complained about its female lead.
