Great film!

Rating: 9/10 (22 July 2003)

This movie begins with very clever and subtle humor that continues through the whole movie. The visuals of this film were spectacular! Excellent special effects and excellent scenes produced just the right atmosphere for every scene. Johnny Depp was brilliant as usual, though I failed to understand what he was saying at times (along with some of the other characters). No, it wasn't the smarmy sea slang, it was just bad sound (or mumbling). The movie definitely dragged on towards the end, not ending several times when it could have. But even though it was late, I found myself hoping that it wouldn't end! It was just that kind of a show.

My only complaint: I went at 11 pm, on a Sunday night, and I was SURROUNDED by noisy children and infants! Is there nothing sacred anymore????
