But he can't do it alone, so he enlists the help of swashbuckling ship captain Jack Sparrow. Together the two chase after The Black Pearl, but they soon discover that the captain and crew aren't your average pirates. Cursed to remain between the living and the dead, Barbossa and his men look like skeletons when basked in the moonlight. When it is revealed that the only thing that can break the curse is Elizabeth's blood, Jack and Will are faced with a race against time and a battle against the undead to save the Governor's daughter.
In this Bruckheimer-produced high-seas adventure that incorporates roaring cannons, oddball comedy, a love story and more than a touch of the supernatural has Johnny Depp unleashes his theatrical bravado. He's hilarious as he gives his loosest and looniest performance yet and it is spectacular.Entertaining, exciting, and engrossing with a genuine feel of adventure along with excellent performances, this is truly worth watching.
