The Bounty leaves Portsmouth in 1787. Its destination: to sail to Tahiti and load bread-fruit. Captain Bligh will do anything to get there as fast as possible, using any means to keep up a strict discipline. When they arrive at Tahiti, it is like a paradise for the crew, something completely different than the living hell aboard the ship. On the way back to England, officer Fletcher Christian becomes the leader of a mutiny.
Editor's Verdict
"The plot of 'Mutiny on the Bounty' is entirely focused on 18th-century naval discipline, exploration, and mutiny. The only detected 'Christmas element' is the broad category 'Holiday Release,' which is metadata about the film's distribution, not an element within the narrative itself. All criteria relating to the film's content receive a 'None' rating."
