If you don't like pirates go for Depp.

Rating: 10/10 (9 July 2003)

Pirates of the Caribbean was a lot better than I expected it to be. I thought Orlando Bloom did a good job (not great but good) Geoffrey Rush was an excellent bad guy. The best part of this whole movie is Johnny Depp's performance. If you don't like pirates at least go see it for Depp. Everything from his entrance to his fight scenes are done with this certain pizzazz. You can't help but feel good and smile every time he is on the screen. He was perfect for this role and I couldn't see anyone else in it. I think this is the best movie of the summer but I do not recommend this for very small children (too much violence). All in all a great movie I give it an 9/10.
