Trailer missed humor

Rating: 8/10 (10 July 2003)

Based on the trailer, I was not looking forward to this movie other than as a chance to oogle at Depp & Bloom. It certainly was nice to find out that the best scenes were NOT given away in the trailer! Depp does a marvellous job at keeping the film on an even keel and a physically funny performance. Bloom had the easy job of being the handsome hero and he did it admirably. How lucky is Knightley to have worked (and still in 2004's King Arthur) with so many young talented gorgeous actors!
