Depp's Captain Jack is back

Rating: 9/10 (6 July 2006)

A miserable winter's day in Melbourne Australia has just received the "rays" required to warm the cockles of this city's heart! Johnny Depp has arrived to deliver another dose of pure entertainment in the role of Captain Jack Sparrow. The story is strong, the visuals are great, the rest of the cast is as strong as in the original ... but above all else, there's one major reason for this film and its predecessor's success ... JOHNNY DEPP. If Depp is not thoroughly enjoying every single moment of playing this character, then he is the greatest actor of all-time. His antics, from the swishing of his pirate hips, to the mischievous glint in his eye, all make the film a joy to behold. For those in need of a really good laugh, and a voyage full of fantasy and fun, then set sail now for a ride on the Black Pearl - you will not regret it.
