Will I watch it again? No.
I saw this in the theater and again recently. Both times I liked it OK. I don't have any major issue with the picture and I had a reasonably good time with the fun cast and their characters. The story is alright. It's not a great picture but I certainly don't see why it's so reviled and why Norrington gave up directing and Connery acting because of it. I never read the graphic novel this was based on but it's the kind of thing that's right up my alley. I'd probably really dig it.
