The Indiana of the Sea

Rating: 10/10 (11 July 2003)

This movie is the epitomy of fun. Smart dialogue, excellent fight scenes and blow-you-mind-animation that is on the same scale, if I dare say, as Gollum in the Lord of the Rings : The Two Towers.
Johnny Depp, as has been said again and again, praise he is worthy of, steals every scene. His presence, even when he is not the center of attention, is so captivating. "You forgot one very important thing, mate. I'm Captain Jack Sparrow!"
Orlando Bloom played an excellent handsome love interest. Sometimes, I felt a little tired with his continued forcefulness, but he was very much the slightly naive but determined side kick.
Keira Knightley! A beautiful girl that I hope will have a long career. She acts with grace and conviction.
Geoffrey Rush was such a fascinating presence, playing Captain Barbossa with finesse. His on-screen presence was nearly as enjoyable as Captain Jack.
I recommend this to anyone looking to laugh until their sides hurt and leave feeling boyantly revived. Though, it may be a little strong for the younger ones. 10+
