Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003) Review


Hello guys and welcome back to Movie Reviews! So, there is a new "Pirates...." movie coming out this week and I've decided to re-watch the previous 4 installments, beginning, of course, with the first one. Being based on a Disney theme park ride, this movie feels exactly like a theme park ride. It feels exhausting throughout but, at the end, you will feel like you had a very good time. Getting past the feeling of exhaust, you can enjoy this movie for what it is: a thrilling, swashbuckling and funny adventure time. Johnny Depp has some fun time playing this character, the witty, charming Captain Jack Sparrow and, mainly, creating it from his own imagination, making it his own. All of the performances were good, Geoffrey Rush is excellent in the role of Barbossa and, also, Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley make for a lovely romantic duo but the stand out is definitely Johnny Depp. The CGI is good, a bit dated. The set pieces are great and the whole feeling that you are watching an awesome adventure/action movie is present throughout the whole thing. The story is far more complex that I imagined and it makes sense. The main negative of the movie is that it's way to long. It's based on a park ride, make it under two hours. It will still be good but, if you can overlook that, you can be pleased and satisfied with this movie. 8.2/10

OK guys, that is my review for today. Tomorrow I'm taking the "Dead Man's Chest" for a spin. Until then, take care and keep on reviewing!
