What a great film

Rating: Null/10 (20 April 2006)

I'm 36 years old - pirates aren't my cup of tea, really (to put it mildly!). I first saw this film as my young son wanted me to watch it with him. I was bored at the time so I agreed.
And how great it was! Within 15 mins of the film ending I was watching it again.
Depp is simply awesome. I know we hear of actors performing well every now and then, but Depp pulls off this role so utterly convincingly. Of the countless thousands of films I've seen, this is one of the best performances and I will certainly remember it for a long time.
Depp's accent is awesome (very much like Michael Cane, I thought) but there are so many levels to the character that its completely captivating.
In closing, everyone should watch this film.
Thank you.
