An Entertaining Movie

Rating: 7/10 (12 October 2004)

If you want to see a entertaining, light, shallow movie, you've come to the right place. Pirates of the Caribbean's blend of comedy and action works wonderfully creating a truly fun movie to pass the time. The cast, for the most part, is great, especially Johnny Depp, who turns a interesting character into wonderful, show stealing one. This contrasts with Orlando Bloom, whos character is already boring compared to jack sparrow without Blooms acting adding to it. Yes this movie is one of the most entertaining movies i've ever seen, but it is little more. While Depp's character is memorable, i can hardly remember the details of the plot any more and the movie has little artistic value. If you want to see johnny Depp, I can suggest What's Eating Gilbert Grape, Edward Scissorhands, or Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas as some alternatives, but if you're just in the mood for a movie that lets you sit back and relax, look no further than Pirates of the Caribbean.
