He dies and goes to the land of the dead, then returns. It isn't exactly time travel, but the deadland is sort of timeless and eternal, so he wanders in time. Pretty good story, actually. The films got a little full of themselves with the slapstick and special effects and swordfights, but through it all was a good, complicated plot.

| 6. Lucky Jack himself. A great character, and a great friendship with Maturin. |

Love the books, and I wish there'd be another movie.

| 7. I always thought it would be better as a BBC TV series, not a series of movies... |

I loved the movie--detailed and understated, with good acting. The movie drew me to the books, which I've just started. It took maybe half the first chapter to completely capture me.
