*** This review contains spoilers ***If was to sum up Mutiny on the Bounty it would be ‘immensely satisfying’. The actual build up to the mutiny itself is just so immense. Charles Laughton is an absolute beast as Captain William Bligh, a cruel sadist with no reverence for his crew, even more so due to his prejudice against convicts. I can’t stress just how much I love this performance. Shive... read more

"Frank Lloyd's prestige, atmospheric adventure tale may not be the most historically accurate of accounts of the 1789 mutiny against Captain William Bligh but it is certainly the most entertaining. With an epic, sweeping romance, Lloyd whisks the audience out to sea along with the crewman of the HMS Bounty, where we meet the monstrous Bligh (a perfectly irredeemable Charles Laughton), the formidable Fletcher Christian (Clark Gable, sans his famous moustache because 18th century sailors had to be "

""HMS Bounty leaves England in 1787 on a two-year voyage over the Pacific Ocean. The ship's captain, William Bligh (Charles Laughton), is a brutal tyrant who routinely administers harsh punishment to officers and crew alike who lack discipline, cause any infraction on board the ship, or in any manner defy his authority. Fletcher Christian (Clark Gable), the ship's lieutenant, is a formidable yet compassionate man who disapproves of Bligh's treatment of the crew. Roger Byam (Franchot Tone) is an i"
