Excellent film for the family (over 8 yrs old)

Rating: 8/10 (19 July 2003)

Disney got one right finally. A great pirate film with interesting characters all around that seem to have real depth. Plot twist, good action and interesting characters. We need more pirate films for sure. A must see on the big screen. The effects of the cursed pirates was very well done - kudos to the CGI folks. The mix of a small bit of scary (enough for the adults and good for the older children) and sufficient humor to go with the beautiful scenery and smashing action made for a superb viewing experience.
