Rating: Summary: Great DVD Review: This was by far the most entertaining movie of 2003, and the DVD is even more entertaining. It has great features, such as bloopers, behind-the-scenes diaries, and more. You won't be disappointed!
Rating: Summary: Quite the jaunty voyage! Review: Given the "success" of the Country Bears, I was not too optimistic of another Disney theme park ride becoming a movie. By that same token, I wasn't too sure how vivid an exciting Disney could make a haunted pirate movie. I was very pleasantly surprised.After seeing interviews with Johnny Depp in which he mentioned his role model for Captain Jack Sparrow was Keith Richards, I watched raptly as he sauntered and slurred his way through each escapade. You cannot help but watch his every move, wondering what he would do next. Orlando Bloom plays the idealistic blacksmith as Geoffrey Rush plays the evil pirate in control of the Black Pearl. Both work well with Depp, which helps the movie move along. Plenty of action and humor await the viewer. I highly recommend watching this.
Rating: Summary: WORST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN Review: I saw this "film" in the cinema, and was bored out of my mind. Terrible terrible, bland performances from O all involved, espeacially Orlando Bloom and that blonde woman. Allthough you couldn't have expected much with such a pathetic script. The story is about cursed pirates/ zombie skeleton things...i can take ridiulous meaningless plots like this if they are at least witty and funny, this is neither. The movie is based on a ride at disney land for gods sakes. It has atleast made me much more cautious about what i see at the cinema. It's a terrible shame what has happened to Hollywood.
Rating: Summary: Must See This Movie !!! Review: I have this movie because i love my actor heroes 'Johnny Depp'.Anyway u must get this movie and see.
Rating: Summary: Yes Review: This is a movie that won't get boring. A few scenes seem to be overdone with that artificial Disney quality, but all in all it is definitely an enjoyable movie.
Rating: Summary: --Very Entertaining-- Review: PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN is a well-done action film. Johnny Depp as the off-the-wall Captain Jack Sparrow, dominates the movie and steals the show from the other characters. His performance is terrific! The premise of the story is for Captain Sparrow to recapture his lost ship, the Black Pearl. The movie is colorful and the special effects are excellent! I'll bet, for children, this film is like an interactive trip to the Pirates of the Caribbean theme park ride at Disney World. Primarily, the movie is aimed at children. Although, I believe that it might be too scary for children under the age of five or six.
Rating: Summary: Disappointing Review: This was confusing and a dumb story. I was bored during the entire movie. I own Disney stock and generally like their movies. This was a waste of time.
Rating: Summary: Pirates of the Caribean- Great movie to watch.... Review: This movie is an excellent buy. It's definitely a movie that is worth watching time and time again. The characters of Captain Jack Sparrow(played by Johnny Depp), the governor(played by Jonathan Price), governor's daughter(played by Keira Knightly) and Will Turner(played by Orlando Bloom) round out a very well put together cast. The storyline is believable and enjoyable. So if you like pirate movies, go buy this one.
Rating: Summary: Pirate movie does ride justice Review: Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl surprised me greatly..I had nightmares of Cutthroat Island....Hollywood has never seemed to be able to recapture the true swashbuckling spirit...Few films even make a good effort (Princess Bride being the last to do so) This time out Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom do a fine job. The most memorable scene is the homage to the ride it takes its title from...but there are plenty of other memories you'll take from this film...Johnny Depp is a hoot though an oscar nod seems more for unrecognized past glory...dont get me wrong he steals the show and yes he reminds one of Keith Richards. His cutthroat with a heart character enlists Orlando Bloom an unwilling blacksmith but an expert swordsman and sets off after Keira Knightley the governor's daughter kidnapped by Jack's treacherous former first mate Capt. Barbossa played by Geoffrey Rush who is always fun to watch...great visuals throughout and a few good swordfights..mix in some adventurous humor and you've got a winner....while the film wasnt a real swashbuckler it was a lot of FUN....the characters were easy to root for and hiss respectively...the extras are plentiful and worthwile not just endless commentaries...personally I prefer shorts and features which this delivers...I mean really if you are going to watch movies with commentaries stick with Mystery Science Theater...
Rating: Summary: Wow! Review: I was pleasantly surprised after watching this movie for the first time. It is funny, witty, and full of action. The characters are well cast and the story line moves along wonderfully. But for the most part, it was so fun to watch. Johnny Depp does an excellent job and I loved seeing him receive a nomination for his role. I definitely recommend buying this DVD for your collection. The extras are worth it and it has been in my DVD player more than I can count since I received it! Great movie!!!
