Summary: Great Pirate Movie
Review: All I can say is WOW. I am an avid pirate movie fan, so I might be a bit biased. I will try to keep myself under control. First I have read quite a few reviews and if you are not into pirates, think that a movie can't be a good movie without blood, gore, or curse words, you will either be shocked by this movie or bored senseless.

The special effects were great. I didn't see any discrepancies of the special effects. As I said earlier there is not much gore, very little blood, and no curse words (YEAH!!!). The backgrounds were beautiful; they make me want to travel to the Caribbean.

As for the cast, Johnny Depp was amazing. He really made his character come to life in a very unique way. He stole all of the scenes he was in. Orlando Bloom did a great job as the conquering hero. All of his fans will be swooning in the aisles. Geoffrey Rush did a wonderful job as the villain. There were times that he made me just sit back amazed at his character. Keira Knightley was a good heroine. She was not too weak, she didn't simper too much, and she was smart and witty enough to make me feel like cheering a couple of times. The supporting cast is fun. There are a couple of pirates that definitely give some comic relief. Plus if you like monkeys there is a rather creepy monkey in this movie that will amuse.

Oh, btw, make sure when you watch it you take a look at the end of the credits. There is some film at the very end.
This is a great film for a hot summer day (or any day in my opinion) when you just want to enjoy a FUN movie. I will be buying this the second it comes out on dvd!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: really fun movie
Review: There aren't many films you can go watch with your teenagers [they sit separately, of course], and all of you LOVE it.

To be honest, the other reviewers have already said it all and I can only add this--in the last 18 years my husband and I have not been to a single film where he didn't fall asleep at some point--until this one! I can't really say what kept him awake, but he never dozed once.

What higher praise can there possibly be?

Summary: The best movie of the summer
Review: Pirates of the Carribean is a movie to see again and again. It's a sure hit for anyone. Capt. Jack Sparrow (Jhonny Depp) and his antics are halarious. Jack has to team up with the ( HOT ) Will Turner ( Orlando Bloom who shows his sexy tall dark and handsome features) in order to obtain The Black Pearl. While Will gose to save his crush Elizabeth Swan (Ms. Knightley)from pirates.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome
Review: I saw the movie first on Friday and left the theatre calling everyone I know with a huge crush on Jack Sparrow. I went home and downloaded wallpaper and the trailer. last night I took my 11 year old daughter to see it and she loved it, because she wasnt scared like she thought she would be. I am seeing it again tomorrow with my 16 year old son and my daughter. Johnny Depp is awesome as Jack Sparrow. My daughter did not believe it was the same guy from the astronaunts wife. The efforts, and the monkey were incredible. I will totally buy the DVD as soon as its available and I probably will see it a few more times on the big screen.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: YO-HO!
Review: This is a wonderful, exciting, funny and well-done movie. It has something for everyone. Depp is fabulous as Capt Jack Sparrow, Bloom is a great hero; Rush is perfectly evil. I loved it. My family loved it. Bring on the DVD! Well-done!

Summary: Swashbuckling good time!
Review: What fun and delight was the new movie "Pirates of the Carribean"! Many of the familiar scenes in the ride are played out in the movie which is so fun to see, and it gives the movie a real Disney 1950-1960's feel to it.
Johnny Depp looks like everything a suave, swashbuckling, dark, handsome pirate should be. How refreshing it is to see him use his rare comedic talent and he does it in a perfectly amusing way
Sword fights, double crossing, walking the plank and lots of cannons! Even the movie theatre was dank and moist much like the ride, and I wondered how they sell tickets on a hot sunny day.
Just like the ride, I loved the skeletons in the movie. I was so happy to see them come to life and live and fight in all my beloved scenes.
The only two draw backs; the movie was about 15 minutes too long, and there was no blue bayou lagoon.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pirates of the Caribbean: What a Movie!
Review: I have seen Pirates of the Caribbean twice now, and I will be seeing it again. I just can't get over what an awesome job Johnny Depp did in this movie. Just to see the wonderful facial expressions is worth the ticket price. No one else could have played Captain Jack Sparrow with as much heart or style. Without him, this movie probably wouldn't have been 1/2 as good.

Without a doubt, this is the best film I have seen in my life. It has everything without any dull or slow parts. For a 2 1/2 hour movie, it moved right along. I wouldn't have changed a thing. Hats off to Depp and Disney for this wonderfully exciting picture. I'll be seeing it again, and again, and again....

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best summer movie I've ever seen!
Review: I knew I had to see this movie as soon as I saw the previews. Johnny Depp is probably my favorite actor (he starred in one of my favorite movies, Sleepy Hollow)and Orlando Bloom is so sexy! Depp is absolutely histerical and fits his character Jack Sparrow wonderfully. I plan to go back to the theater and see it again! I absolutely fell in love with this movie! The ultimate summer adventure!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally a funny and exciting pirate movie!!!
Review: I have seen this movie twice and it is still great to watch the second time. This movie has become part of my all-time favorite movies next to Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves and The Mask of Zorro.

Pirates of the Caribbean has it all:
adventure: swordfighting, chase, thrills
comedy: Johnny Depp is the stand-out( plays a hilarious drunken pirate, Capt. Jack Sparrow)
suspense: zombies and skeltons attack
romance: Will Turner and Elizabeth Swan

All the elements of the movie work:
great script: Interesting story
great special effects: the quick transformation of skelton and human through the moonlight really wowed me!!
great acting: Johnny Depp and Geoffrey Rush play great pirates

I love these classic swordfighting movie and the Pirates of the Caribbean make an excellent addition to my collection. Don't miss this one, it is a SUMMER MOVIE WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderfully funny.
Review: Pirates is a great, fun movie primarily due to Johnny Depp's portrayal of Capt. Jack. He really steals the show. However, the other acting is also well done and the movie's plot makes more sense that you might expect.

The special effects are fantastic as are the sea battles & sword fights. It brings back fond memories of old swashbuckler movies while maintaining a modern twist (or 2, or 3).

If you like Depp you will love this movie. He's at his quirky best.
