Good film but overrated, enjoyable & fun but not a classic

Rating: 5/10 (24 December 2007)

I have just finished watching this film. I must say it was better than I had expected from the trailers. However this is not a classic film.
This is an enjoyable action adventure with some comedy thrown in (and some skeletons too). I must say just because a film is mildly enjoyable does not mean it is worth in excess of 6/10.
I did not find this film to be anywhere near as good as "The Mask of Zorro" and Johnny Depps Captain Jack Sparrow was a bit over the top & eccentric(which was obviously the intention). I found this film to be of a similar level if a little better than "A Knights Tale".
It seemed to me though that having been made by Disney it was aimed at 10-16 year old viewers and although entertaining did not appeal to me as a film I would watch many times over.
