Enjoyable Summer Flick

Rating: 7/10 (19 July 2003)

I took my 14 year old son and his friend to see this movie. It was an enjoyable, but predictable flim. The story was fairly interesting but tended to drag in places. I felt it would have been better if about 20 minutes had been deleted.
Johnny Depp was very engaging as Capt. Jack Sparrow and Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly were appealing in their roles as Will Turner and Elizabeth Swan. Geoffrey Rush gave a very solid performance. Good flim to see with your younger teen family members.
