Don't tell me you liked Dustin Hoffman as Blackbeard better? Yeaach.

I thought Pirates of the Caribbean was entertaining from beginning to end. Yes, there was a lot of repetition with all the various sword fighting, but the visuals were outstanding including the sets, photography and special effects.

Johnny Depp gave another over the top of weird performance as Captain Sparrow. Just watching him in that role, including the make-up job he had, was worth the time and money spent.

You have to remember - it's a DISNEY MOVIE. Action packed with a syrupy sweet "happily ever after" ending. Once you go into it with those expectations, the movie is fun.
