Summary: Most enjoyable movie of the past year
Review: What fun this movie is. Excellent acting by all of the stars and at least Depp and the movie got some nominations and/or awards. Depp should get more, but won't.

This movie is fun, great music, visually exciting, and well worth the purchase price for the DVD (plus the 3 times I went to see it). The music soundtrack make wonderful car driving music also.

Can't wait to see the sequel, just hope they do a good job with writing the script.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Exquisite!
Review: What bad thing can I possibly say about this DVD.
I saw it 3 times on cinema and 6 more the 2 times I rented it...
It's the first movie that I actually saw 4 times in a row without falling asleep. It has a nice script, a nice background, a beautiful soundtrack and people who can actually act as they have lived in the 17th century for real. The movie of course is a pirate one but even if you don't like that type you're going to love it. I bought that movie imediately and that's what you should do too. I Hope you enjoy it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Pleasant Surprise
Review: Like so many people, I really did not have any great urge to see a film based on a theme park ride. However due to a summer thunderstorm original plans for a night out had to be changed and we ended up at the cinema watching "Pirates of the Caribbean".

I could not have been more surpised. I have not seen a classic adventure movie like this in a long time. The scenary was incredible, the special effects amazing. You will see the most amazing lifelike walking and talking skeletons (well besides from "Posh Spice") . The film actually shows how far special effects have come since "The Mummy."

The story was well paced. There was also a great cast of characters, particularly the pirate villains. Geoffrey Rush was creepy and amusing as Captain Barbossa, Johnny Depp showing us what a strung out hippy pirate would be like, Keira Knightley was well cast although Orlando Bloom appears very wooden. I was shocked to see "Coupling"'s Jack Davenport in a major hollywood film.

I imagine they will probably make a sequel to "Pirates" but I hope they do so with a lot of care and do not go overboard (no pun intended). The DVD itself is great. Marvellous sound and picture quality and a great bonus disc of extra features. The blooper real is hilarious although a little too short. There are also some hidden surprise features like the "Japanese Trailer" for the film. There are also some educational facts and features about real life pirates.

All in all a great movie.... lots of fun

Summary: Succeeds in all areas!!
Review: I honestly cannot fathom why someone would not like this movie. It has all the elements essential to a great story: good action, intriguing characters, great supporting cast, superb special effects, tight plot, superior cinematography. Johnny Depp, the first time around, was a little much, so I watched it a second time and was much more in tune with his performance. Geoffrey Rush as Barbosa was excellent as was the entire supporting cast. I am sure the people who didn't like this movie are the same ones who find Adam Sandler hilarious, Ben Stiller a knee slapping wonder, and Eddie Murphy bathroom scenes brilliantly witty. It is a shame that the movie industry will not give this movie its due because it is a very noteworthy achievement on all fronts, especially the driving, stirring sound track. Count me in for episode two, if they ever decide to have one.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Worth IT!
Review: I really loved this movie. A lot of fun. I can't say enough about Johnny Depp. That was a great, great performance. He really stole the show. Bloom may look pretty ... well I guess that's enough for most of the demographic. Geoffry Rush was too good of a cast, so it was good to watch him. Production quality was good. You'll have fun.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Must See!!!!!!!
Review: The Piates of the Carribean is one of the best movies that has come out in a long time. This movie has plenty of action, but is also mixed with humor. Johnny Depp is hilarious as witty captain Jack Sparrow, who is very spontanious. Orlando Bloom is also great as he chases after the love of his life. The special effects in this movie are also only bested by the Lord of the rings. This movie tells of the Black Pearl, and how Jack and Will team up to fight the cursed pirates and rescue the beloved Miss Swan. Don't miss out on this awesome epic.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Orlando Bloom is HOT
Review: This movie is awesome. Not only is it a cool movie, it has Orlando Bloom, the hottest guy in the world, in it, though he's not as hot in Pirates of the Caribbean as he is as Legolas in The Lord of the Rings trilogy. But anyway.
Orlando Bloom is a blacksmith, until the girl he's in love with gets kidnapped, then he teams up with pirate Johnny Depp to go get her back from the pirates on the ship the Black Pearl, that Johnny Depp wants to be reinstated as captain of.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Movie!
Review: Johnny Depp was the best character and i belive he should have won the Golden Globe. Orlando Bloom is a hottie. It's funny it has alot of adventures. It sucks you in and your on the edge of your seat. It has a great plot. Geofrey Rush played a great cursed pirate. The visual effects will blow you away. I defentally recomend this movie who likes comedy adventure and romance.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: This ship is foundering!
Review: One of the silliest movies I have seen in awhile! An absolute waste of talent. Some of the special effects are interesting, but no movie should be based on that alone. The story is so confusing and contrived that I was bored with it half-way through and could barely keep my eyes open. Therefore, only two stars for this mish-mash of a movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Johnny Depp is awesome
Review: Johnny Depp played the best pirate Character I have EVER seen in this movie. The action in this film was non stop, and there were a lot of laughs also, but Johnny Depp is what made this movie so great. If you're a fan of Johnny, pirates, and non stop action you will enjoy this movie.
