.....Is always more enjoyable than watching movies about pirates. I don't know why this is. There has only been one good "pirate movie" ever and that was "Treasure Island" with Wallace Beery & Jackie Cooper.All other pirate movies thoughout the years stink. Even Spielbergs HOOK.
Remember Roman Polanskis "Pirates"?I had high hopes for POTC, with J.Depp. Was terribly disappointed. Falls right into the "bin" with all the other badly-made-pirate-films.
