(*) Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl **
USA: Gore Verbinski, 2003 Pirates of the Caribbean basically has one good thing going for it: Johnny Depp. Had the movie been an hour shorter and focused more on him, it would probably have been pretty good. As it is, though, it's an overly-long, badly-written piece of flim-flam with a terrible score, ropey special effects and Orlando "Can't Act" Bloom. It tries too hard to be camp in a wink-wink sort of way, and overall there just doesn't seem to be any heart and soul in the project - pretty much the usual Jerry Bruckheimer fare, then. Barring a handful of cheap laughs, there really is little to recommend here. IMDB reference

Movies
Welcome to the movie checklist!
This section is an archive listing every movie I've seen from January 1 2005 onwards. Films I have already seen are included and will be marked with a (*), but probably won't be reviewed except under special circumstances. I will be including a rating for each film (in stars, out of 5), and hope to be able to include a brief 1-2 paragraph review of each film, although due to time constraints that won't always be possible.
