POTC Rocked!!!

Rating: 10/10 (14 July 2003)

This movie was so good that I still can't believe it. I loved every moment of the movie and never found it long or slow. This was undoubtedly my favorite movie of the year (Matrix Reloaded and Holes were my previous favorites - and no, I'm not under 30 LOL). Johnny Depp deserves an academy award for his brilliant performance IMO. It reminds me a bit of Lee Marvin's comedic character in Cat Ballou, which I believe he did win an academy award for. Not that the characters were that similar, but yet both roles provided the actor with the chance to really get into the role and create a totally unique character, and even though they were traditional "bad guy" roles (i.e. pirate, outlaw) they had heart and were funny and were indeed really the good guys. The FX are amazing, the story is amazing, the actors are amazing....what more can I say but check out this movie.
