Not All Treasure Is Silver & Gold

Rating: 10/10 (15 May 2015)

For all Johnny Depp lovers this film is undoubtedly for you. For all good movie lovers this film is for you too! Truly this film has something for everyone and is a classic. Keira Knightley plays the feisty & independent Elizabeth Swann, who should become a Disney Princess. Orlando Bloom serves as the teenage girl eye candy, but admittedly he is an OK character although Jack Sparrow (ahem, CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow) steals the show with his hilarious remarks. The film has a great cast and plenty of nods to the original ride from the Disney Parks. A favorite of mine is definitely Jack the Monkey, Barbossa's immortal pet monkey who was named 'Jack' to spite the human. Personally, my favorite scene is when Jack Sparrow gets marooned with Lizzie.

In total, this film does not disappoint and is a fabulous tribute to Walt's vision. The cast makes it shine, the sets make it glow, and the breathtaking ambiance of it all makes it ideal for any movie night.
