Alright, i've been waiting for good ol' Hollywood to actually stop writing the same BORING scripts and do a movie that's actually worth seeing this summer...or really, this year. I went to a sneak peek of POTC July 8th and i was astounded by every part of it. It had everything together, great costumes, sets, action sequences, not to mention the mind blowing special effects...and of course the most talented cast that i've seen in a long time. From the opening shot of the movie you're instanlty entranced by it, hooking you for the next 2 hours. The movie's theme of being a pirate was never over done and wasn't at all corny.. "No "Args!", thank you very much. Johnny Depp gave one of his best performances to date as a charming,sneeky, yet odd pirate. His co-star Orlando Bloom was the one that you couldn't tear your eyes off of, not just because he's devastingly beautiful, but he delivered a great performance, which by the way, is obvious that he's on a rocket heading UP! The damsel in distress in the movie Keira Knightly was to say the least, a kick-butt girl that took control and made the character her own. Overall, the ENTIRE cast along with Producer, Jerry Bruckhiemer and Director, Gore Verbinski did a magnificent job in which, this seventeen year old will be seeing it another 10 times. |
