This is my third favorite of the Inger-Pippi films (films starring Inger Nilsson as Pippi). It's also the most memorable. Anyone who was a kid during the seventies will recall the flying balloon/bed, the lion on the desert island, and the pirate island where Pippi battles buccaneers... beating them all up. Her father, who resembles a better looking and less fat Dom Deluise, is held prisoner by some nasty pirates. They want to know where he has his treasure, and he won't tell them, but Pippi ends up saving him and, well... this is definitely a good movie for kids. And Pippi fans will think of this one as the most "violent" of the Longstocking saga. She really beats the heck out of the pirates, and the fight scenes never end. It's an enjoyable romp, but I prefer it when Pippi is back home... the adventures are tighter and more fun in my opinion.
