Set in the 19th century Caribbean, the feature film stars Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Karl Urban, with Ismael Cruz Cordova, Safia Oakley-Green and Vedanten Naidoo, and follows a former female pirate who must protect her family when the mysterious sins of her past catch up to her.

Critics Consensus

A brutally efficient yet emotionally hollow swashbuckler, The Bluff's blood-soaked action never quite makes up for it charmless sense of adventure.

Rather than reinvent the genre, the film leans into familiar tropes to deliver bursts of visceral action backed by a commanding central performance from Priyanka Chopra Jonas.

The Bluff has rough edges, but it’s never workmanlike.

The Bluff is a rollicking good time despite the fact (or maybe because of the fact) that the line between thrilling and ridiculous has never felt more razor thin than it does here.

While this tries desperately to channel A History of Violence and Pirates of the Caribbean – its chaotic storytelling and emphasis on style over substance means it reminded me more of Cutthroat Island and Ballistic: Ecks v Sever.

For a Saturday afternoon on the couch watching Amazon Prime, for me, this film delivered. I had a fun time with it.

At its lean and efficient best, the movie feels sort of like a pirate take on a violent Western. As its most generic, it feels like any other limited-location action thriller,

Gripping movie with some good action sequences. Priyanka Chopra really stood out with her charisma and action. Whoever was incharge for lighting should be sacked from the industry. That was embarassing work in the final cave sequence.
