Summary: Best Film Of The Summer
Review: "Pirates of The Caribbean" is quite simply Hollywood's best pirate film in ages; a funny, rollicking swashbuckler that pays homage to the great films of the 1930's and 1940's featuring the likes of Errol Flynn, Charles Laughton, among others. The script is witty and not nearly as cliched as I had dreaded originally, thinking that this would be a lame remake of a great Hollywood swashbuckler. Johnny Depp offers the performance of his career playing the over the top manic pirate Captain Jack Sparrow. Orlando Bloom takes on the Errol Flynn role as the blacksmith Will Turner, offering a less flamboyant, but equally impressive, performance next to Depp and leading lady Keira Knightly (Elizabeth), the daughter of the resident British governor (Jonathan Pryce in yet another memorable performance which will remind long-time admirers of his work in Terry Gilliam's "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen"). Geoffrey Rush is deliciously wicked as Sparrow's former first mate, Captain Barbossa, and Nick Davenport offers a restrained, dignified performance as Elizabeth's fiance, British Royal Navy Commodore Norrington. Captain Jack Sparrow arrives in the British colony town of Port Royal (presumably Jamaica, though never specified), searching for a ship so he can recapture his pirate vessel The Black Pearl. Ten years before he was marooned on a desert island by after a mutiny led by Barbossa and the crew, soon after they found a mysterious treasure chest containing Aztec gold with a terrible curse instore for those who find it. One of the crewmates was Will's father, who sends his son a piece of gold, allowing the curse to endure. Now the Black Pearl sails the seas, a haunted ship, searching frantically for every bit of the Aztec gold. Soon Captain Sparrow will join forces with young Will Turner to find the ship, missing gold, and Elizabeth, a prisoner of Captain Barbossa and his crew.

Summary: A disney ride. A good movie? How can this be?
Review: Johnny Depp is a god. Geoffrey Rush is the same but in a different way. Put them on screen together in an action picture based on a Disney ride, and you get a lot more than you would normally bargain for. Pirates of the Carribean: The Curse of the Black Pearl is the result of this dangerous combination. Get ready for a wonderful ride, though, because this movie is a blast. It succeeds on every level it tries to achieve. The plot can actually get a little convoluted as the movie goes on. Twists and turns, changing loyalties and double (or even triple!) crosses abound. Basically, young Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightly), daughter of the governor of Port Royal (Jonathan Pryce), helps rescue a boy adrift at sea. She finds a medallion that indicates he's a pirate, but she hides it from her father and the Navy for fear of the boy being hung. Years later, that boy has grown into Will Turner (Orlando Bloom), a blacksmith who is besotted with her. Captain Jack Sparrow (Johhny Depp) comes to port in order to steal a ship, having been marooned by his crew on a deserted island. The Black Pearl, now captained by his former first mate Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), attacks Port Royal, in search of the medallion. It seems the medallion is the key to a curse that's affecting the Black Pearl, one that Barbossa is determined to end, even if it means spilling the blood of a beautiful English woman. Will and Jack have to chase them down and stop them before it's too late. That's just an introduction to the plot, but I don't want to spoil anything further. I found the details of the curse even more horrible because I hadn't heard about it. If you really want to know, many other reviewers (even Ebert) have said that much. It's not a complicated plot, but it does move along at a fast pace. I have seen several people ask questions that are (to me) quite obviously answered in the movie but were easily missed. You don't need to think deeply about it, but you do need to pay attention. This, however, is an action flick, so the action is the key that makes up for a few logical inconsistencies. And what glorious action it is! Swashbuckling swordfights, explosions, creatures from beyond the grave, it's all here in abundance. Some of the fights go on a bit too long (especially the climactic fight), but it's certainly never boring. The choreography (especially in the fight between Bloom and Depp) is simply wonderful. The special effects are fabulous, but they don't drown out the actual movie. They are incorporated into the plot seamlessly, dazzling you but not distracting you. The CGI with the skeletons (especially when they dance in and out of the moonlight) is breathtaking, and I certainly didn't notice any little mistakes there. The ship to ship action (both firing on each other and grappling) make you feel like you are there. The picture is produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, so you know it's going to be loud. You won't be disappointed. It is quite loud. If you find that a bad thing, you may want to skip this. The acting is simply marvelous from the main characters. Knightly is suitably aristocratic as the governor's daughter, and she warms quite nicely into an action heroine as the movie goes on. Bloom is very good as well in his second major role since Lord of the Rings. I hope he doesn't get typecast into action movies, though. However, Depp and Rush just run away with everything in this movie. They play it perfectly, as only skilled actors can do. If they play it over the top, it would destroy the movie and make it a parody. If they play it too straight, the movie would be laughable in its earnest seriousness. Instead, they combine the too, adding some outlandish humour but keeping it just this side of camp. Depp is hilarious as Captain Sparrow, who English Commodore Norrington (Jack Davenport) wrongly calls "one of the worst pirates I've ever seen." He has said in interviews that he based the character on a combination of Keith Richards homage and Pepe Le Pew. I can definitely see it. He has many laugh-out-loud moments. Rush is perfect as the villainous Captain Barbossa. He's dedicated to his men and to foiling the curse that they've been under. He's not evil incarnate, and Rush does give him some depth, mainly through facial expressions and how he says things. He's desperate to feel human again, and he's determined to do what it takes, no matter what the consequences. While I love Jonathan Pryce, I don't think his character was fleshed out enough, and he had a couple of moments that just didn't seem to work. It's not that Pryce overdid it, but it's the writing of the character that I thought was off. When rescued from the pirates attacking his ship, he taunts them happily with hand gestures and words that just seemed out of character for him. While Pryce did a strong job, I thought his character was the weakest of the main ones, followed closely by Norrington. Overall, I have to give Pirates a full five stars. While there are a couple of inconsistencies or things not explained (how did Gibbs become a pirate when he was serving on a British ship 7 years earlier?), the movie quickly makes you forget that so you can enjoy the ride. Most movies made from Disney attractions look very bland and boring, but this one raises the bar high for upcoming pictures. And you know there will be some. In the meantime, enjoy this one. Forget the Disney roots and revel in what is probably the funnest movie of the summer(...)

Summary: Wonderful
Review: I saw this movie only last friday, but it has been on my mind ever since. I love going to the cinema, but it had been a long time since I saw a movie that put such a spell on me. And ofcource johnny Depp was great, but I absolutely adored Orlando Bloom. He was so gorgeous beyond words. Some might say the movie is a bit long (143 minutes), but I could take another 143 minutes of Orlando Bloom any time.
I laughed out loud at least 10 times, it's so funny. Please go see it. You won't be disappointed

Summary: Review for the swashbuckler fans
Review: Finally a pirate movie that succeeded at box-office standards (it's been a while with flops like "Cutthroat Island"). POTC has gained a lot of success with the help of a star-influenced cast (Johnny Depp) and the current popularity of (unfortunately amongst teenage girls - he truly is talented with a sword and a good actor and I'd hate to see him become a fad of the minute) newcomer Orlando Bloom. I must say I am proud of Disney for focusing more on a plot rather than obsessing over a series of pointless CGI input as is the trend with most movies today. For anyone interested in swords and swashbuckling, I have to say I am pleasantly surprised by the accuracy seeing that it is a Disney movie. Famed Hollywood swordmaster, Bob Anderson contributed to this movie and in the tradition of many UK actors (I assume it's in their blood) Bloom portrays the quintessential swashbuckler (swaggering with the swarthy dashing look and build of a romantic swordsman). Most of the swords used were rapiers I believe much to my delight since i haven't seen very many in movies lately. The show stealer of course is Johnny Depp with an admitted Keith Richards impersonation who also surprisingly holds well with a sword. Swashbuckling fans will enjoy their duel and the loads of many more sword-fighting in the movie with a well-to-do plot! Also, POTC did a bit of history (there is a scene from Tortuga, famed Pirate headquarters). I'd recommend it for any swashbuckling fan.

Summary: Pirates of the Caribbean-Curse of the black pearl
Review: The Pirates of the Caribbean movie is really good. It isn't so much of a horror movie as it is a romance, comedy, and action film. It is a great movie for the whole family.The lines in it are really good filled with thoughtful humor, but the movie doesn't require too much thinking. Throughout the movie are scenes incorporated from the ride and make it fun to just try to find them. There aren't any vulgur parts that ruin the movie and no parts where children would be forced to leave the room. It leaves you feeling good for hours. If you watch it make sure that you stay until the very end (after the credits) as there is another clip that sets the movie up for a sequel. More importantly, just enjoy it. There aren't any parts in it that will alienate you.
