Summary: Entertainment at its best.
Review: This action adventure film is clever, funny, well written and very entertaining. But all in all, it is Johnny Depp's show. He seems to have stolen -as some other reviewer accurately said- some of the mannerisms of the character he portrayed in Fear And Loathing in Las Vegas to create Jack Sparrow, as well as being inspired by Keith Richards to perform the role; but the truth is that it works beautifully! Depp created a character that wil last, he is just superb in this movie.
And the non-stopping hilarious lines he says all through the entire movie! He surely had a lot of fun playing this guy.
And the entrance at the beginning, with his heroic gaze, and then we see that his little boat is sinking: just hilarious!
If you want to have fun, go see this movie, it wont dissapoint. EXCELLENT ENTERTAINMENT!

PS: the special effects are really great!

Summary: G.M
Review: O.K. Now I know I'm gonna get alot of stick for writing this review, but to be honest, that's the reason that I'm writing it.
When this film was first released I was on holiday abroad. Once returned from the sunny skys of Budapest and dropped straight in to the miserable cold weather of London, the thought of this film was all I had to make me feel glad about being home.
To be honest, I just missed it. The movie was no longer main stream when I got back but I was determined to see it in the cinema because of all the great things that I'd heard about it.
Eventually it came by to a cinema near me that always gets films a few months after thier scheduled release.
So that was it. The hype had hit me full on, and I couldn't wait. I sat in that row during the trailers expecting to see the next best thing since Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
Well, that's not what I got. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it, and had thier not been so much hype around it I probobaly would have enjoyed it alot more, but I really can't see what all the fuss is about.
Yes, Jhonny Depp as always is excellent. The problem though is that he is really the only good thing about it.
Scratch that.
He is the only good thing about it. Every other character is pretty boring and the story was lacking in every respect.
This film is about Pirates. It should have been an adventure.
Example, they could have crashed on to a deserted island (Which they did) and found some underground tunnels with booby traps and cool interesting stuff like that. It should have had more imagination and tension. Kind of like The Goonies.
Anywy, that's my opinion. I was dissapointed, but I blame myself really. There's really no point getting worked up over a Bruckheimer film.
Especially a Disney one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Who is Jhonny Depp? Here He is!
Review: Hey this was an ingeneous movie and recomend it highly. This is a movie that should stay in Theatres and It made me want to ride Pirates at Disney World. Halarious, action packed, and real.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This film will blow you OUT of the Water.
Review: Wow! What an awesome movie. After the success of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, many probably thought that there couldn't be an epic film that could be original or epic.
First of all, Johnny Depp was perfect for the role of zany Captain Jack Sparrow. Following him, is an awesome supporting cast that includes Geoffrey Rush, and British imports, Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly. The effects in this film (which in my opinion should have won the Oscar) were phenomenal! Everything looked so real! This film will stick arond forever. What I find ironic about this film is, that for the first time, art imitated art, not life. All in all, great acting, great story, great effects, see this film.

Rating: 4 stars

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Overated movie
Review: This isn't such a great movie, I coulnd't even sit straight through the whole movie. First the storyline is rather straigth forward, then the casting is abit out of place (with Orlando Bloom and Johny Depp), the special effect is just silly and it doesn't impress anyone anymore does it especially after watching Lord of the Rings?, worse was apart from the silliness, someone actually think that Johny Depp should get an Oscar for his role in this movie.....

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Worthy of a Sequel?
Review: I doubt they will make one, but I for one would love to see Knightly on the screen again. Johnny Depp is great and the special affects were just as good as they could be. If you have not seen this one you need to!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A PERFECT MOVIE
Review: Like Hitchcock's Rear Window, this film is an absolutely perfect example of its genre. I can say this about only a half dozen or so films. Insofar as the high adventure sea-faring swashbuckling pirate film goes, Pirates of the Caribbean is IT. Nothing even comes close, not throughout the entire history of motion pictures. Tight script, perfect casting and acting, amazing production values. And Johnny Depp, of course, raises it to a level beyond.
