Great action, great Depp, too long

Rating: Null/10 (4 September 2003)

This is really a well done movie with a great (yes, great)over the top performance by Johnny Depp. Unfortunately it's also a little too long. It seems like they were having so much fun they didn't want it to end. And, of course, once again the damsel is not in distress, but fights the ghostly pirates without fear - though Sigourney Weaver she's not. Highly recommended for light summer entertainment that may become one of Disney's top grossers of all time (it's already in the top 25 of all time box office movies).
