Pretty so-so.

Rating: 7/10 (21 March 2004)

I love pirates but I thought this was a pretty disappointing movie. Sure, Depp was great--he usually is. His lines were some of the best in the film. I did enjoy the boats and sets a lot. However, I did not like Orlando Bloom and found him dull and irritating. Keira Knightley was clearly just chosen as a pretty face, since she wasn't too exciting, either. It's a shame to see someone as talented as Depp paired up with two such inadequate actors. The film itself was long and without real substance. I did enjoy the "cameos" from specific parts of the WDW ride, though.
Oh well. I'd watch it again, but probably with the sound off.
