Best film of the summer

Rating: 10/10 (9 August 2003)

Pirates of the Caribbean puts just about every other film released this summer to shame. The cast is superb, particularly Johnny Depp who's eccentric Jack Sparrow steals every scene. The film looks beautiful in every department. The script (from the writers of Shrek) is smart, funny and true to the genre. This kinda film is just whats needed amongst the slew of the superhero films and sequels, good old fashioned family entertainment with out a single frame of bullet-time in sight. A must.
