DVD Reviews of Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
DVD Review: The Best Blu Ray!
Summary: 5 Stars
Having grown up on the Goonies, of course this movie rocks. It is one of the best Blu Rays I've ever seen (picture quality), and has by far the coolest menu out. DVD Review: The beginning of an action-packed series
Summary: 5 Stars
There's a reason why the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films are so popular . . . the action and adventures are endless! It's not just the unforgettable cast (Depp and Rush definitely steal the show as Jack Sparrow and Captain Barbossa), it's also the kick@$$ action sequences. The many battles in the Caribbean get the good ol' adrenaline pumping when they occur on screen. The music makes it even better: although I'm not a big fan of Hanz Zimmer, he really does know how to make some suspenseful Hollywood music. Humor has a wide range here: it's a Disney film, so there's bound to be comedic sidekicks and silly slapstick. I don't really care much for Orlando Bloom and Kiera Knightley, but they do add some nice touches.
This isn't for those who are in search of political or social implications. This is a high-octane action-adventure film that I'm sure a majority of the inhabitants on this planet enjoy watching.
Grade: A
DVD Review: Great Movie... Fun To Watch
Summary: 4 Stars
Pirates, the often threatened, overwork, villians of the seas.
Would you belive that they finally made a good movie 'bout them. Not only that, but guess where it came from... Disney?!?!?
One of those movies you buy, and watch over, and over again.
Aimed toward the family, but Disney's most Action packed yet.
Fun to watch movie- makes you crave 2&3.
And you'll be trying to pun Jack Sparrow's signature swagger. All the acting was super-well-done.
Give it Four and a Half if I could.
DVD Review: The First and the Best
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm amazed that Hollywood finally made a decent pirate movie.
When I was a kid, SWASHBUCKLER (1976) was a major disaster. Robert Shaw, riding high after the biggest summer blockbuster ever, JAWS, starred in a pirate movie that killed any hope of this genre setting sea ever again. I can't remember when Roman Polanski directed PIRATES but it also sank into the abyss.
When I'd heard that a movie was coming out based on the Disney ride...I had doubts. But then Johnny Depp was starring, so I figured there would have to be something interesting to attract him.
It's a fun summer movie. The story is constructed like an amusement park ride, more for effect than any real thought. The special effects are top-notch and there's enough humor to keep things sailing along.
DVD Review: yowsa!
Summary: 5 Stars
what can i say? these movies are freakin' AWESOME! and the extras you get...are great! a must have for depp lovers!!!!
Description of Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
From producer Jerry Bruckheimer (PEARL HARBOR) comes PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: THE CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL, the thrilling high-seas adventure with a mysterious twist. The roguish yet charming Captain Jack Sparrow's (Academy Award(R) Nominee Johnny Depp) idyllic pirate life capsizes after his nemesis, the wily Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), steals his ship, the Black Pearl, and later attacks the town of Port Royal, kidnapping the governor's beautiful daughter Elizabeth (Keira Knightley). In a gallant attempt to rescue her and recapture 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. Rich in suspense-filled adventure, sword-clashing action, mystery, humor, unforgettable characters, and never-before-seen special effects, PIRATES is a must-have epic on the grandest scale ever.You won't need a bottle of rum to enjoy Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, especially if you've 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) on an adventurous quest to recapture the notorious Black Pearl, a ghost ship commandeered by Jack's nemesis Capt. 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 into a special-effects thrill-ride that plays like a Halloween party on the open seas. Aye, matey, we've come a long way since Jason and the Argonauts! --Jeff Shannon
