Best movie of the summer in a shocker

Rating: 10/10 (14 July 2003)

I actually wasn't too high on Pirates Of The Caribbean because so many blockbusters were coming out this year. Well, The Hulk and The Matrix: Reloaded were both disapointing. Finding Nemo, an animated adventure, was the best film of the summer going into this past weekend. I even saw The League Of Extrordinay Gentlemen before I saw Pirates. What a mistake that was. I have not had that much fun watching a movie since Austin Powers 2. The movie was funny and exciting, with great special effects and even a love story. It could actually be a date movie. Johnny Depp is awesome as Jack Sparro (I mean, Captain Jack Sparro). But he doesn't steal the entire show because Geoffrey Rush, Orlando Bloom and Kierra Knightly were all very good. Even side characters such as the two bumbling red coats and the two bumbling pirates added lots of humor. I can't wait to see this movie again, in which a disapointing summer season, this movie is #1.
