An Enjoyable Ride

Rating: 7/10 (28 January 2005)

This is the kind of movie that most people will either Like or Love, There is little here to Hate, it is a good fantasy Movie.
I also noticed that Women tend to rate this movie higher than Men (that wouldn't be because of Mr Depp or Mr Bloom would it ladies?)
In Short this film is Well cast and directed, it has great visual effects and is good entertainment, the problem is this, the film simply doesn't have enough story or character development to attain its quest for epic status or justify its length. Strange as it may seem, this is not a heavy criticism, because the film still carry's enough action, humour and charm to be an enjoyable one.
Most people will love it, but i just like it.
7/10 for the film 10/10 for Johnny Depp's performance (it is masterful)
