Summary: If its only gonna be one movie this year, this is the one
Review: This is by far the best film I have ever seen.It has every thing,romance,action,adventure and the unexpected element of comedy.Pirates of the caribbean is so brilliant because of the extrodonairy actors.Jack Sparrow(Johnny Depp)is the character which i think adds the most to the movie.The drunken but lovable rogue is always suprising,wacky and entertaining.Will Turner(orlando bloom)is a blacksmith turn hero.Thou characterless in the begining his character grows through the film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the BEST
Review: I think that if you love to have an adventure that keeps you smiling the whole way through, you should definetly see Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl. It's a really good family film and i give it a five out of five the whole way.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Movie
Review: Pirates of the Caribbean is the best movie to come out this year. I had to admit I was skeptic about a movie based off a ride, but I was so wrong.

I'm not going to tell you much about the story line. I'm going to say a little bit about it and then what I liked. I don't like to tell much of the story, because I think it takes away from the experience of seeing the movie.

Pirates is a pirate movie. The good guys most stop the pirates, save the girl, and the end the curse.

Johnny Depp is outstanding. There is nothing he did wrong with the movie. He brought great charm to it, and was so sarcastic. He really does steal the show, and has made himself into what will be one of the most beloved characters in movie history. He really is that great.

Orlando Bloom was good as well. A lot of people have knocked him for what he did in the movie and have accused him of being a bad actor. While Bloom was brought in to bring the ladies to the theatar, he plays a great action hero. I thought he played the role as Will Turner to perfection, and I just can't see what people had against him.

Keira Knightly was awesome. I think she is incredibly hot and will be a big hollywood star one day. She plays Elizabeth well for what they gave her to work with.

The special effects are the other reason to go. They were done by Industrial Light & Magic. The pirates look great when you see the curse in action on them. It's some of the best of the year, and will probaly draw Oscar nominations.

Like I said, Pirates is the best movie of the year so far. Depp should find some kind of academy consideration for his role as should the movie for best picture. It's fun for the whole the family, and is a must for any movie fan.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Johnny Depp steals the show
Review: This has to be one of the best contemporary pirate movies I have ever seen. The special effects went ballistic, and Johnny Depp's role as Jack Sparrow was unbelievable. His acting ability far outweighs any other actor I have seen. If you're buying a movie or going to one, make this the one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great entertainment for the whole family
Review: Disney has done a great job bringing to the screen one of its darling rides. "Pirates of The Caribbean" is a delightful movie going experience with impressive performances by Johnny Depp and Jeffrey Rush. The plot is sound and the special effects are awesome. This is definitely a mainstream blockbuster that is loaded with entertaining moments and adventurous characters. It has a Treasure Island/The Rock feel to it. It will definitely satisfy your adventurous, rebellious side.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Johnny Depp is glorious and the rest is light fun
Review: How could anyone see this movie and not enjoy Johnny Depp's terrific performance? You could label it a dozen different ways but the end result is a rich character, sexy and thoroughly enjoyable to watch. The rest of the movie isn't outstanding or lackluster, just plenty entertaining enough. Can't wait for the DVD and it's extras with Mr. Depp.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Fun Movie
Review: Now this is a fun movie. It is witty, amusing, has somewhat of a love story and with lots of action. But the action is essentially non-violent and no gore. No bad language either! This is a movie you can enjoy and come away from it feeling good!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wait a second there bud...
Review: Yes, most girls out there originally intended to see this movie because Orlando Bloom is in it. I adored this movie and I will be the first to say that yes, Johnny Depp completely stole the movie. He had all the laughs, he had the best character and he's all around an amazing actor and in my opinion, he deserves an Oscar for his role. The first scene in this movie is my least favorite, I don't like the girl who plays little Elizabeth, I just...I didn't like that scene. The special effects are amazing, yada yada yada. GO SEE THIS MOVIE NOW.

On the subject of Orlando Bloom, I think it is a bit extreme to say that he brought none of his acting abilities to the movie and that he could have ruined this and that but oh, oh it was Johnny Depp who saved him. Is Johnny a better actor than Orlando? Yes. Easily. But here's my argument on the behalf of Orlando. He is playing the straight man (generally the less glorified role) next to Johnny Depp's comic genius. Johnny is a seasoned actor, he's been doing this for years, and Captain Jack Sparrow is by far the more interesting character. Personally, I think part of the problem was the script...I mean, most of it was great, but I think when they wrote Will's lines, they...made it too sappy, cheesy, whatever. You can't blame Orlando for that. But also, Orlando is trained as a stage actor. He went to Guildhall and has participated in other programs as a THEATRE actor, not a film actor and so many people don't realize that there is a huge difference between them. He went from doing stage acting immediately into film with no transitional training in there. That's why some of his acting is over the top and very staged-looking...because he's a stage actor and hasn't really had any film training. Lord of the Rings wouldn't help with training the subtleties of film because LOTR is a huge-scale fantasy, and thus everything is huge and over the top and otherwordly. Orlando DOES have talent. As an actor and someone who's seen enough good actors as well as bad actors, I can tell you that yes, he does have talent. He'll probably never be Johnny Depp...he may never win an Academy Award or be awarded some Lifetime Achievement Award...but he does have talent and I don't think we've had a decent enough chance to really see him shine. He was good in this movie, not great, but good. Very few people could have held their own next to Johnny Depp, but he did. But no one can steal the show when Johnny Depp's in the same movie.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Bad Movie
Review: This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Hollywood should try to write something original for a change. Making a movie out of a kiddie-ride will definately sell tickets, but money shouldn't be the only goal in making movies.
