Pirates of The Caribbean: Curse of The Black Pearl

Wow. This movie surprised me. I haven't liked anything Jerry Bruckheimer produced for a while now, and I wasn't a major fan of The Ring, Gore Verbinkski's movie before this, but this turned out to be a very fun, very light-hearted flick. Also a bit bloody for a movie that is based off a Disney attraction. But I encourage it, just for Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow. He just loves this role, and indulges in it like a fat man with... uh... fattening foods. Orlando Bloom has a lot to learn, but he proved that he HAS learned something from his time on the Lord of The Rings sets (hell, if you're working with Ian McKellen, Christopher Lee and Viggo Mortensen, you better learn something). Geoffery Rush does play a kick-ass bad pirate.

And, oh yeah, Keira Knightley reaffirms her "sexiest tomboy beanpole on the planet" status. She's an ass-kicker in this film.

This film isn't to save the world or anything... it's just a fun romp. I'd suggest seeing it. You'll laugh your ass off, and that's half the point. The other half is great sword battles and an excellent sea-battle between The Black Pearl and the head of the British Fleet.

im turning into my friend lauren and her "hey jen..." questions such as: "hey jen, how do animals have sex?" or "hey jen, why does gasoline smell so good?" or her latest "hey jen, if a woman shaves her face, can she grow a beard?"

You should drink the gasoline. It tastes good too.

whoa there. no women cannot grow hair because they will always have the same number of hair follicles on their face. unless it already exists.

i think she was going off the theory that if you shave your legs once, the hair grows back thicker :freak:

i'm sorry, you must be blind then.

areusad831 · Post by **areusad831** » 7/9/2003, 9:47 pm

or hate pirate movies and most movies made in the past 2 years.

Yeah, usually guys should get over the whole pirate thing when they turn 10. Beyond that, this is a movie made about a fucking Disney ride. And we all know that anything associated with Disney is like dealing with the devil.

Anyways, the only people that seem to be really excited about this movie are women. Hmmm, I wonder why? I mean, it can't be because of "good looking" men in make-up, could it? Nah, I must be wrong. You want to see it for character development or to see the exciting action this movie has, right?

admitting that we all are seeing it for johnny depp and orlando bloom was SO 5 minutes ago, Alan.

Well ya know, I think it sounded good even before I knew who was in it. The first time I saw the trailor I thought that both Johnny and Orlando didn't look like themselves and really had no idea who it was. It's the whole fantasy idea that I kinda like. Hmm..I love Hook. And it's sure as hell not cause I think Robin Williams is hot! Harry Potter...Lord of the Rings...etc.
