The King's Pirate

Madagascar, circa 1700 - the story is about the efforts of the British to halt piracy of the rich trade route to India. Doug McClure, playing a Colonial American, volunteers to silence the guns of the pirate port of Diego Suarez and in regulation style accomplishes his mission.

Ok buccaneer yarn, which has some good action, however it's a comedic remake of Against All Flags, probably has too much comedy, and it appears that Doug McClure's mission is waysided by it, and the plot meanders a bit. It's dull in places. But it's passable, and has some good humour- Doug McClure is a likeable hero, Jill St. John sizzles as a lady pirate.
