Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: You won't need a bottle of rum to enjoy Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, even if you haven't experienced the Disneyland theme-park ride that inspired it. There's a galleon's worth of fun in watching Johnny Depp's androgynous performance as Captain Jack Sparrow, a roguish pirate who could pass for the illegitimate spawn of rockers Keith Richards and Chrissie Hynde. Depp gets all the good lines and steals the show, recruiting Orlando Bloom (a blacksmith and expert swordsman) and Keira Knightley (a lovely governor's daughter). They set out on an adventurous quest to recapture the notorious Black Pearl, a ghost ship commandeered by Jack's nemesis Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), a mutineer desperate to reverse the curse that left him and his (literally) skeleton crew in a state of eternal, undead damnation. Director Gore Verbinski (The Ring) repeats the redundant mayhem that marred his debut film Mouse Hunt, but with the writers of Shrek he's made Pirates of the Caribbean into a special-effects thrill-ride that plays like a Halloween party on the open seas. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating:  - easily digestable summer fluffentertaining and likeable summer blockbuster thats great fun for all the family.it is a tad overlong but that is only real gripe Rating:  - 2 hours of fun, action and special effects as good as they can getI liked this film mainly because of the action sequences and the special effects and photography.The story isn't particularly interesting but it never becomes boring.Disney have made films with better stories than this but neither they or anyone else has surpassed the special effects you'll see here.The bonus features are as good as the main feature and apart from interviews with cast and production staff you get to see things such as the journey of the ship "Lady Washington" ( a real old ship that was used in the film )on its way from california through the panama canal to the caribbean island of St Vincent where filming took place.This ship got caught in a real life storm and badly damaged on its way to the film set. There are lots of extra features on the disc that you can look at on a computer too. Rating:  - Don't read... buy, watch, enjoy!What did I just say? This film will make you fall in love with pirating and adventure all over again. Take my word for it... just buy it, and stop reading the reviews! Rating: - The best film in the world!!!I have to say, this is my most favourite film of all time! The acting is excellent, the CGI is fantastic, and, the storyline is just incredible!!! This has to be the best film Gore Verbinski has directed in his whole career, as he used some imagination, and turned a simple idea of pirates kidnapping the govenors daughter, into the pirates being cursed as well!! This film has everything you want in a action movie. It has fights, humour, and, main of all, Capt. Jack Sparrow. He's such a ledgend!! Overall, this film is just brilliant, and, you MUST buy it today, otherwise you'll get a curse yourself, for not buying the best film ever made in motion picture history!!! Rating: - Yo Ho Ho A Pirates Life For Me"Pirates of the Carribean" is very simply, one of the finest action films to reach the cinema this decade. Gore Verbinski (Director of the film) leads a great pack of actors which includes the underrated Johnny Depp playing the infamous pirate Jack Sparrow, Orlando Bloom as Will Turner the young Craftsman turned hero, the blosseming Keira Knightley as the governor's daughter & a very good performance by Geoffrey Rush as Capitan Barbosa doesnt hurt the cast much either... This film is not stop fun, the action is very apperent throughout and the same can be said about the comedy. I was 100% involved for the entire 143 minutes that it was playing. Johnny Depp's performance is astounding and should have been more seriously considered for the best actor award at the Oscars ... but I really dont think that it is Jack's Charactor is not the only thing that made the film so good. The collection of all of the witty comedy, non-stop suspense & action as well as some stunning special effects is what made the film so great. The film had great direction, a clever script and about as good of a cast as it could have hoped for ... Gore Verbinski is one director that I think deserves a little bit more credit. He made a very funny film in "Mouse Hunt", a very creepy movie in "The Ring" and an all around good job in the film at hand ... "Pirates of the Carribean" will go down in history as being one of the great summer hits, the same can be said about Johnny Depp's wonderful performance playing Jack Sparrow.. The second film is good but not as good as this one, though it is still very much entertaning ... the next few should be a blast, I cant wait!
