Ahrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....a fun flick, nothing great but a good time.

Rating: Null/10 (2 August 2003)

It's basically like the ride-engaging, fast, has Pirates, some funny moments, ummmmmm AVast! you gets what youse pays for. I did enjoy Depp but thought he was 'sounding like Ringo' instead of the Keith Richards(!) impression others have seen. Whatever-it worked. He's great.
Kneightly is a sweet slender surprise as the girl, Legolas there does a decent job but does have a block of wood edge to him that he might wanna work on. Of course you have Geoffrey Rush chewing the scenary as the Pirate Barbossa-he was about the best thing here along w/ Depp.

You don't get much into the characters or plotting, save for what's essential for the flick to work, you enjoy the swashbuckling and F/X, heck it's a good summer flick, a retro hit ala 'Mark of Zorro' and the like.
*** outta ****. Ahrrrrrrrrr.
