I was skeptical of this movie at first ... singing pirates and ghost ships just isn't my thing. But, the star-studded cast consisting of Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush, Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley made the movie fun and humourous. Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl became a blockbuster hit when it was released in 2003 and I've seen it at least a dozen times with family and friends. To provide a quick synopsis, Johnny Depp is Captain Jack Sparrow, a playful if roguish pirate in search of the Black Pearl, a ghost ship stolen from him by his nemesis, Captain Barbossa (Rush). The crew of the Black Pearl is cursed – The special effects are fantastic and render the ghost ship and its skeleton crew truly believable. Johnny Depp steals the show with his comedic genius - It's hard to imagine that the director actually thought of replacing him because he wasn't sure Depp was taking the role in the right direction ... Depp's portrayal was inspired by Keith Richards, so you can imagine it was a bit off-kilter ... But that's what makes his character so much fun! About the DVD: It takes you behind-the-scenes, featuring an interactive bit on the history of pirates and includes a funny blopper reel. Enjoy the adventure!Read full review
You gotta love what Jonny Depp brings to a film. In this movie, his excentric role makes this movie lovable. Added to that, the movie itself has it all; treasure, love, sword fights, laughs, ghosts, imagination, and a plot never unlike others. It is sure to be a good movie for him and her and the kids. I recomend buying it, you will watch it more than once! May even make your top 10 favorites! I can't believe this movie didn't win more awards and the stupid and forgetable movie "Lost in Translation" did (/cry). PLEASE CLICK IF THIS REVIEW HELPED YOU OR NOT, THANKS!
Inspired by the theme park ride, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN the CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL is a Great Movie very fun to watch. Johnny Depp is super as Captain Jack Sparrow "an eccentric rogue". Depp gives one of the best acting performaces I've seen in along time. Pirates of the Caribbean is a wonderful throwback to old Hollywood offerings. Filled with rope-swinging , crusty villains,& great sword fights everything a great pirate movie needs. This movie has it all a great story, Top notch acting,and great special effects. A must for the family may be a little scary for small children, but mine loved it !! Buy it you'll want to watch it again and again. Enjoy !!
I love this movie. I think that the actors chosen did an amazing job in really embracing their characters; especially Johnny Depp who is always superb. The special effects are well done, but don't completely take over the movie where you get lost in it and can't pay attension to the acting. This movie makes you feel for the characters and to have sympathy for all of them including the "evil" pirates! This movie is a must see for nearly all ages!
If you haven't seen this movie yet, boy are you ever missing out! I absolutely loved this movie, I just had to add it to my DVD collection. The plot, characters, and special effects are all wonderfully done. Both Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom are at their best in this film. And they look dashing in their costumes, if I may say so :) This is a movie you can watch again and again. Go out and get yours today!
