Summary: This is great fun!
Review: I usually never watch "mainstream" films, but this caught my attention. First of all, I guess I like pirates, or rather fancy them (although the only fetching one here was Johhny Depp). Well, I admit the secondary reason I wanted to see this, was because of the ever-gorgeous and youthful Depp.

I was pleasantly surprised to find this was a very beautifully shot film, with a nice supporting cast, including the beautiful and tempestuous Keira Knightly (although Orlando Bloom, who is undoubtedly handsome, was sort of . . . bland[?] in this one).

All in all, a great adventure story with an excellent cast! Fun! (And I usually don't use such . . . superfluous language.)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Easily th best film of the year
Review: What started out as just another lame pirate story has effectively taken the world by storm. Gore Verbinski's Pirates of the Carribean is a funny, romantic and action packed rollercoaster ride hence the one it was based on. Johnny Depp easily steals the show in an oscar calibre performance which he should have claimed. Orlando Bloom's turn as a lovestruck blacksmith is enough to get the girls swooning everywhere. Newcomer Keira Knightly is right up there as a hoity toity rich girl who in the end gets her man. excellent film. Not to be missed

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Horrible
Review: This movie is just plane horrible. The sea battles are fake, the costumes are cheap, and the actual 'sailing' is just plain wrong. If your looking for a good sailing action adventure movie then buy Master and Commander. This movie is ok for kids because there gullable or just don't no better. Thos movie is just plain STUPID from an adult point of view

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pirates of the Caribbean- The Curse of the Black Pearl
Review: This movie contains so many things that can appeal to everyone. It makes you laugh, Johnny Depp's role as Jack Sparrow, and at the same time gives you a thrill, The curse laid upon Geoffrey Rush's role as Captain Barbossa, yet there is a love story tied into it, with Will Turner, played by Orlando Bloom, and Elizabeth Swann, played by Keira Knightley. It is an amazing blend of human emotions. It will please a child up to all adults. Brilliantly done.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pirates of the Carribean
Review: A fantastic film with something and someone for everyone. This films grabs you from the start and s fast paced and funny througout. All actors putin good shows but Johnny Depp really steals the show with a memorable and witty performance, much of which he wrote himself or ad-libbed.
The only dodgy point is Orlando Bloom's hat and outfit in the closing scenes, what were the costume dept thinking?

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: A Truly Wonderful Picture
Review: First Reaction: Another crappy Disney movie.
After Watching: That was amazing!
The Paradox: Disney made a good movie?

This movie has absolutely beautiful scenes/sets with a perfect use of color and light. 'Pirates' moves right along with scene after scene of excitement and enchantment. To put it simply, this movie puts you in another world. It is just incredible entertainment, so rare to see such a well done movie these days.

The score is flawless! It fits the movie perfectly and keeps you enticed all throughout. The best part about this movie is that it never gets boring. And I mean that. Every scene is something new and intriguing. It can also be watched over and over and over, you won't get bored I promise.

This movie is also done tastefully. It is not overly violent or overly sugar coated. Noramlly in Disney movies if characters fight they resolve it quickly. The fight scene is very minimal in violence and no one ever dies. This movie does kill a few off but it's not a gore fest. You have to see this!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Johnny Depp shines!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very unique Sand and Sea action adventure entertainment
Review: This movie lives up to its name and no doubt this is a great adventure flick i've seen, All star Cast including the great Geffory Rush and one phenomical and breathtaking action sequences, some laughs and some scars, this movie is good clean action and a hillarious adventure. 8.5/10.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Some people talk rubbish.
Review: I just can't understand people complaining about this Film.

Theres one thing I want to point out - I've read more than once that it has major 'Flaws' in it and things that don't make sense. Please someone tell me what because I see nothing? I think the problem is most people don't get why Jack Sparrow isn't a skeleton the entire way through, which means they can't have been watching it close enough when he picks up a coin half way through which turns him into one. Its not hard to figure when you think that hes going to fight Barbosa in a moment and doesn't want to die.

Aside from the people who don't get it, I think its a great Film and I can't find anything wrong with it. People speaking badly about the 'English' woman in it annoys me like mad, I think Keira Knightley is better than ANY Hollywood Actress, shes got a natural charm about her and is stunning. I think she played the English rose portrayal beautifully. I think Orlando Bloom has improved and gone from strength to strength and as for Johnny Depp -

I'm going to give him an entire paragraph. I think Johnny Depp made Jack Sparrow his own character, he completely got into it and its believable. To the people wondering what was going on and why he acted that way - Heres why. He always been different and this is his way of breaking away from what could have been a boring stereotypical Pirate. I think that the quirky style hes chosen is great, its a bit daring and slightly naughty but isn't that what Johnny Depp is so great at doing?

Fantastic Film, its just fantastic and I can't say a bad thing about it.
