Review: Since I went on the ride Pirates Of The Caribbean ride at Disneyland-I since then fell in love with pirates-sunkun ships and treasure chests!

I was so excited when i first saw the add for this film-I went to the offical site and it is awesome matey!

Acoording to an August 2002 script review-the film is gonna feature some fun scenes that Disney lovers will get a kick out of-one of the scenes is when Johnny Depp is in his jail cell and there are three prisoners next to him despartly trying to attract the attention of a dog-who is just out of their reach-the dog has keys to the cell in his mouth-thats a scene straight from the ride!

I even have a picture of that scene from the ride!

So Im looking forward to this-I know this will be a fun ride-and I hope it will be as fun as the real ride matey!

So Im a big fan of The Pirates Of The Caribbean ride and Im a fan of the movie-I havent even seen it yet-but I know it will be awesome!

Summary: Pirates of the Caribbean
Review: "Pirates of the Caribbean" will be the best movie in the summer of 2003. Since the actor Orlando Bloom is going to have a big performance on this movie then it will be brilliant! Orlando Bloom did a wonderful job on acting as Legolas the elf in "The Lord of the Rings" movie trilogy. "Pirates of the Caribbean" is going to be a brilliant movie because of all the action, adventure, excitment, and fun it will have to offer. I am very excited and cannot wait to see this highly anticipated movie!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Incredibly entertaining
Review: Johnny Depp plays Cap. Jack Sparrow, a pirate on a mission to get his ship back. Orlando Bloom plays Will Turner, a sword crafter out to save his secret love Elizabeth Swann played by Keira Knightley. With the help of a crew of misfits, they embark on an adventure that they won't soon forget.

Hilarious moments with incredible special effects, this movie will not disappoint you.

Summary: I Can't Wait for the Two Sequels Due Out in 2006!
Review: This is the kind of film that people of any age will enjoy. Johnny Depp scored the first big hit of his amazing career and without him this film wouldn't have been reviewed nearly 2,000 times with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating. Depp's performance is classic (he got an Oscar nomination which is unheard of for this kind of role) and with the next two sequels centered around his character, Jack Sparrow may be his career defining role. Keira Knightley is a feast for the eyes, but sadly Orlando Bloom is lacking in the acting department. Hopefully he won't be as stale in the next adventure. This is a must have for any DVD collection, because it is one that you will watch again and again.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Depp To The Rescue
Review: We rented this flick with high hopes - Depp being one of our favorite actors. And he delivered! Always amusing, clever, couldn't take our eyes off him. HOWEVER. The movie itself was frequently incomprehensible. It was hard for us to figure out just who was doing what and to whom, and why. For comprehensive plot description, we had to read these other reviews! Not the best way to enjoy a movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Incredible
Review: Johnny Depp is amazing. He should have taken home an Oscar for this preformance. As Jack Sparrow he is fun and believable! The story is great and the action is awesome. I am a huge fan of Walt Disney world and have ridden the ride which this movie is based and have to say it was very cute to see some of the exact scenes come to life in the movie (like the part where Jack, in his prison cell, is trying to get the dog holding the keys to his cell to bring them over to him, which is at the end of the disney ride)... The story centers around Depp's character and his adventures on the ghost ship the Black Pearl. The movie has stunning graphics and amazing costumes. Highly reccommended!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great movie!!
Review: I love Johnny in this movie. He is brilliant in this movie. I didn't really understand and never will why he didn't won an Oscar for that role.
Orlando and Keira are also very good. This movie has everything: action, comedy, love.....

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE BEST!!!!!
Review:
**1/2

God bless Johnny Depp, for without him "Pirates of the Caribbean" would be just another empty big budget studio extravaganza - juvenile, bloated and over-reliant on stunt work and special effects. But thanks to Depp's brave and witty performance, the film rises above its own inherent weaknesses to become at least a halfway entertaining picture. He is the real treasure here.

"Inspired" - if one dares use so lofty a term - by the Disney theme park attraction of the same name, "Pirates" takes us to the never-never land of swashbuckling heroes and shiver-me-timbers foolishness. Depp plays Captain Jack Sparrow, a pirate who was left for dead on an island by his mutinous crew. Sparrow, captain of the legendary Black Pearl, a ship with the reputation for possessing evil, unearthly powers, has now returned from his exile and is ready to exact revenge on the mates who abandoned him. There's really no point in thrashing out the complicated but essentially simpleminded plot here. Suffice it to say that it involves a diabolical curse, a literal ghost ship with a literal skeleton crew, a feisty damsel-in-distress and enough repetitive swordplay and "avast me, hardy" dialogue to keep the action adventure crowd purring with contentment.

For all the care that has gone into the look of the film - the costumes, set design and computer-generated special effects - "Pirates of the Caribbean" would sink pretty quickly were it not for Depp giving his all to keep it afloat. His lisping, flamboyant, over-the-top approach to the character is exactly what this stale little tale needs to lift it above the ordinary. One has only to see Depp mincing around - where anyone else in the part would have been swaggering - to verify what we have known all along about Depp as an actor, which is that he is willing to take risks and explore different avenues when tackling a role, even one as lightweight and insubstantial as this one. He turns what could have been a mere walk-through, check-cashing part into an inspired comic turn. One can only imagine what a boring movie this would have been without him. For, indeed, the story itself is silly and the other characters (except for Geoffrey Rush`s evil Captain Barbossa) stiff, dull and uninteresting. But Depp is the real deal, and all I can say is that I hope he received a large percentage of the film`s phenomenal box office booty. Like any good pirate, he deserves it.
