Typical Bruckheimer Fare

Rating: 6/10 (4 December 2003)

As the subject states, this movie is typical Bruckheimer fare. Interesting special effects, minimal story, and too damn long. Thankfully strong performances by Depp and Rush pull the project through. Despite the gushing claims of teenage girls, the supporting performances by Bloom and Knightley are utterly dismissible. I'm sure they sold tickets though. All said, it wasn't a bad flick.
