adventure? excitement? this movie delivers

Rating: 10/10 (10 July 2003)

the Pirates of the Caribbean is probably one of the few films that sets out to show you a good time and holds nothing back in the delivery. The idea of this movie may have been taken from an attraction at a theme park but that is where line ends. This movie is amazing. The action is spectacular and not overly graphic so everyone can enjoy this movie. The special effects were incredible. Not the best around but very convincing. During the final fight between Johnny Depp and Geoffery Rush the effects are flawless. But the thing that i enjoyed so much was the humor. the fact that this movie was not meant to be taken seriously was very appealing. The two british guards adding the color comedy during the entire movie as well as the two bumbling pirates. The characters were another huge asset to this movie and Johnny Depp's portrayal of Captain Jack Sparrow is probably the best i have seen him in lately. Geoffery Rush is equally good as the cursed pirate Captain Barbossa and Orlando Bloom is quite good as Will. All in all this movie should be seen by anyone wanting to have a good time watching a movie. I guarantee that you will walk out with a smile on your face.
