Great film, shame about the sequels

Rating: 9/10 (12 March 2009)

This is a great film, full of action, romance and humour. I loved it and couldn't wait for the sequels ( I lived to wish I had missed them ) Johnny Depp creates one of movies great characters in jack Sparrow who really steals this film. All the supporting actors are good, even the smaller parts and the film seems much shorter than its 2 and a half hours. This film was so good that the awful, over special effected sequels have ruined what could have been a great series of films. The sequels should have concentrated more on Jack Sparrow and his humour instead of ridiculous and unbelievable characters that appeared in them. ( Davey Jones to name just one stupid invention )
