Query: Director seems to have lost the map

Saw this on TV.Not so much as a hint of humour, the script shoots for deadly serious but achieves deadly dull. Over all this tries to make the classic Stevenson story more edgy and contemporary but it all ends up seemly forced and overdone. Far too "post modern punk" and not enough "pirate".I have been a fan of Eddie Izzard's film work and stand up but for this...."Meh". Not a great casting as "Long John" IMHO. He mostly looks bored.Almost any other flim version of Treasure Island beats this.Two stars just 'cause I managed to sit through it.
