Score: 42

from 3 reviewers

Review Date:

Yellowbeard offers occasional laughs and charm but suffers from weak writing and direction; acceptable A/V presentation lacks additional features.

Video: 50

Yellowbeard's Blu-ray, encoded in AVC 1080p at 1.85:1, exhibits inconsistent sharpness and color saturation, with some scenes showing notable grain and occasional crush. Detail quality varies, especially in close-ups. The transfer, likely from an older master, is watchable but unimpressive, retaining natural film grain and minimal compression issues.

Audio: 54

Yellowbeard's DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 track delivers a well-balanced mix, with clear dialogue, a full-bodied score, and natural sound effects. The dynamic range is strong, particularly in bass-heavy battle scenes, though occasional noisy elements can obscure dialogue. Overall, the audio presentation is clean with no major issues.

Extra: 6

The Blu-ray Extras for Yellowbeard feature a noticeably brighter theatrical trailer in HD (1080p, 2:59), providing a sharp and enhanced viewing experience compared to the main feature's video quality.

Movie: 47

Yellowbeard's star-studded cast, including Monty Python alums and Mel Brooks regulars, cannot salvage its inconsistent humor and uneven execution. Despite occasional moments of amusement and potential in its pirate comedy genre, the film ultimately struggles with lackluster writing, poor gag delivery, and a misguided tone.
