It's my new favorite movie!

Rating: Null/10 (1 October 2003)

I've read the other comments of people who have seen this movie, and I agree with any superlatives given to the movie, the leading actors, the character actors, the effects, etc. This is one film I will want to see again and again. In fact, I have seen it four times thus far and I can't wait to see it again before it leaves the theaters. So much goes on, it is impossible to catch everything the first few times around.
One major contribution to the movie is the fantastic music throughout. Klaus Badelt, who wrote the music, caught the EXACT flavor of each scene with each of his pieces. Even without the benefit of seeing the movie, his music is the epitome of pirates.
While I am not a movie critic, I know what I like, and it's "Pirates." Johnny Depp, you are sexy and a master thespian; Orlando Bloom, you are on your way; Geoffrey Rush, be my pirate any time!
Ho, Ho, Ho, a Pirate's Life for Me!
