![Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl [2003]]()
Authors/Performers ------------------ Johnny Depp; Orlando Bloom;
Product Description ------------------- You won't need a bottle of rum to enjoy Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, even if you haven't experienced the Disneyland theme-park ride that inspired it. There's a galleon's worth of fun in watching Johnny Depp's androgynous performance as Captain Jack Sparrow, a roguish pirate who could pass for the illegitimate spawn of rockers Keith Richards and Chrissie Hynde. Depp gets all the good lines and steals the show, recruiting Orlando Bloom (a blacksmith and expert swordsman) and Keira Knightley (a lovely governor's daughter). They set out on an adventurous quest to recapture the notorious Black Pearl, a ghost ship commandeered by Jack's nemesis Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), a mutineer desperate to reverse the curse that left him and his (literally) skeleton crew in a state of eternal, undead damnation. Director Gore Verbinski (The Ring) repeats the redundant mayhem that marred his debut film Mouse Hunt, but with the writers of Shrek he's made Pirates of the Caribbean into a special-effects thrill-ride that plays like a Halloween party on the open seas. --Jeff Shannon

What did I just say?
This film will make you fall in love with pirating and adventure all over again. Take my word for it... just buy it, and stop reading the reviews!;
[Rating: 5 Stars]
This is such an enjoyable movie, it's a pity that the ones after it were so bad. However, I must say I did not watch this movie expecting to really enjoy it, but I was pleasantly surprised. This is a funny, and highly enjoyable movie, and I really enjoyed watching.
The plot:Elizabeth Swan met William Turner when she was a kid, and he was a dying pirate boy. He was wearing a black pearl, which she took off him. Years later, Elizabeth ( Keira Knightley ) is an adult. The black pearl that she took off Will Turner ( Orlando Bloom ) turns out to be more important than she could have expected, when she is abducted by a group of pirates, who want to get it back. Captain Jack Sparrow ( Johnny Depp ) eventually comes into the story when he is escaping from prison.
The great humour and good plot will make most people enjoy this movie, even people ( who like myself ) don't normally like movies with pirates, I highly recommend this movie, but I recommend you stop there because the ones after this are just awful, plotless, and a lot less funny attempts at getting the filming crew loads of money.;

I have to say, this is my most favourite film of all time! The acting is excellent, the CGI is fantastic, and, the storyline is just incredible!!!
This has to be the best film Gore Verbinski has directed in his whole career, as he used some imagination, and turned a simple idea of pirates kidnapping the govenors daughter, into the pirates being cursed as well!!
This film has everything you want in a action movie. It has fights, humour, and, main of all, Capt. Jack Sparrow. He's such a ledgend!!
Overall, this film is just brilliant, and, you MUST buy it today, otherwise you'll get a curse yourself, for not buying the best film ever made in motion picture history!!!;
