Flynn is sexy, valiant, athletic and true: a movie star in every sense of the term. [13 Sep 1996, p.30]
Flynn's star-making swashbuckler is right on target.

FULL REVIEW
Directed by Michael Curtiz, Captain Blood is much more than a showcase for one of Hollywood’s legends. The action sequences at sea crackle with excitement (and surprisingly intricate special effects), while the well-navigated narrative, based on a book by adventure novelist Rafael Sabatini, has the fatalistic scope of Charles Dickens.
Captain Blood, from the Rafael Sabatini novel, is a big picture. It's a spectacle which will establish both Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland. Director Michael Curtiz hasn't spared the horses. It's a lavish, swashbuckling saga of the Spanish main.

So the ship models look like something from your bathtub; it's magnificent for an 80-year-old movie. [19 Apr 2005, p.E1]
By Mark Rahner
Errol Flynn’s wicked, wicked charm helps keep this high seas adventure afloat.
The 25-year-old Errol Flynn has the smile and dash to shout "All right my hearties, follow me!" as he leaps from his pirate ship to an enemy vessel.

Hoy sucedió algo que pensé que no iba a ocurrir, pero me alegra que pasara. Ninguna película es perfecta, pero esta es una que está muy cerca, y mucho tiene que ver con su gran guion y especialmente con la actuación de su protagonista. Realmente aprecio y valoro que el Capitán Sangre sea tan elocuente, que se exprese de una forma que hasta parece que recita poemas. Tiene giros de guion muy buenos que de cierta forma no caen en los típicos clichés. No es para nada la película más profunda de la historia, pero no lo pretende; al ser de acción y aventura, eso es lo que sientes durante las dos horas, es un viaje, te sientes pirata, te sientes hasta parte de Inglaterra, y es eso, es lo mejor que se puede ver en su género hasta 1935.
Report
Эррол Флинн идеально попал в роль. Колоритный, красивый и годно шутит. Собственно ради него и можно посмотреть этот фильм. Только стоит учитывать, что всё повествование максимально романтизировано и театрально. Также при хронометраже в 2 часа – история скомканная и корявая.
