Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse Of The Black Pearl (DVD)

This is a great action-packed and entertaining film which doesn't take itself too seriously, and it's definitely my favourite film of recent years. Captain Jack Sparrow, having lost his ship, the Black Pearl, to his mutinous first mate, Barbossa, arrives in the town of Port Royal and inadvertently gets himself thrown in jail for piracy when he saves the Governor's daughter, Elizabeth Swann, from drowning. Whilst he's locked up the town is attacked by the Black Pearl and her crew, drawn there by the piece of Aztec gold that Elizabeth has in her possession. Barbossa's crew kidnap Elizabeth, prompting her childhood friend, Will Turner, to team up with Jack ...  Read the complete review

Being a fan of the pirates of the Caribbean this was a must see for me. Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) is chasing after Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) after he steals his ship, the Black Pearl, and later attacks the town of Port Royal, kidnapping the governor's beautiful daughter Elizabeth (Keira Knightley). In an attempt to rescue her and get back the Black Pearl, Elizabeth's childhood friend Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) joins forces with Jack. What Will doesn't know is that a cursed treasure has doomed Barbossa and his crew to live forever as the undead. In this film there is sword-clashing action, mystery, humour and some of the ...  Read the complete review

I enjoyed this film so much when it was first released int he cinema that I went to see it twice on consecutive days! This film has the perfect formula for summer blockbuster and something that can appeal to everyone - pirates, damsel in distrss, good action, swashbucklin' adventure, special effects, superb storyline and of course, Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp. The DVD is just as good (but on a smaller screen obviously!!!) and is packed with extras to make it even better. My favourite extra is the blooper reel which, unusually for a DVD extra, is actually surprisingly funny! Other extras include filming on set and the story behind the film creation. It also has, ...  Read the complete review

Pirates, romance, death, Good Lord! Could you find a better movie? i don't think so! i think that this movie is the greatest movie of all time, it is action-packed enough for guys, and full of enough romance for women. at first, i wasn't to keen on watching it, but when my father said it was something not to pass up, i watched it, and i was hooked! i love johnny depp, orlando bloom, and keira knightly in this epic tale, and i am glad that they have done two sequels. i haven't seen the third one, but i am guessing it will be as wonderful as Black Pearl and Dead Men's ...  Read the complete review

Well, after watching this film I couldn't wait to get to Disney Land Orlando to ride the infamous pirates of the caribbean ride. i found that this film was hilariously funny and it isn't until you watch it at least two more times that you notice more jokes and clever pieces of animation. At first i didn't think all th actors were going to blend together entirely well but could you have asked for a better team of actors. All in all, it must have been the best movie of that ...  Read the complete review
