Great Fun to Watch!

Rating: 10/10 (11 August 2003)

A surprisingly good summer blockbuster, in my view. Quick-moving, witty, funny, and exciting. Depp's characterization of Captain Jack Sparrow steals the show. I've never been a great Depp fan, but he's marvelous in this movie. Orlando Bloom is very good, too, and so is Geoffrey Rush as the villain. An energetic musical score adds to the zest. Watch it twice!!
