Johnny Firmly Puts his Flag in Mickey Mouses Ear

Rating: Null/10 (23 September 2003)

Pirates like Johnny are a new breed. They can singlehandedly bring a long movie to life and instill it with the fun and wit of the original screenplay. My complements to the writers'(Ted Elliott, Terry Rossio, Stuart Beattie and Jay Wolpert) of this fabulously fun, if not a tad long when Johnny's larger then life character (Jack Sparrow) is off the screen, movie. My expectations of PotC:TCotBP were high and low at the same time... the movie had some good actors, but was based on a funpark ride... I found that plotwise it worked just like the funpark ride itself (probably - haven't experienced it my self). Waiting for the next bit did occur quite a few times, but when the next bit came it was very fun. The screenplay and Johnny's delivery of it make this movie really worth watching - enjoy!
