"Pirates Of The Caribbean Reviewed - Ok it's a bit late lol:S"

I know it's a bit late but I wrote one for Ciao and thought I'd also post it on here as a GAD attempt only to find they don't sell that particular DVD. Hmph. Ack well I still thought I'd post it here for you guys to view. Enjoy:

Pirates Of The Carribean
------------------------

Don't you just love it when you're walking through you're local HMV and find a gem of a DVD in their half price sale? You know what I mean, a film like Gattaca or Top Gun. Well Pirates Of The Caribbean may not be as innovative as Gattaca or emotional as Top Gun but this is definitely a modern day masterpiece that you definitely wont regret paying full price for.

By the director of the popular horror film, The Ring, Gore Verbinski has delivered a spectacular film with a cast that some directors can only dream of. The up and coming A-List elf Orlando Bloom delivers a surprisingly good performance as the dashing young Will Turner, the dazzling Keira Knightley who plays the perfect love interest and Cap'n Jack Sparrow himself, Johnny Depp.

Mr. Depp delivers a stunning performance after a fair few years out off the movie making game in his come back film, and what a come back it is. His fabulously camp performance as the comical yet skilled pirate of the seven seas is one that simply does not disappoint. His cheeky little comments provide well-needed light relief in this otherwise generic pirate movie.

"Welcome to the Caribbean love!" Says the apathetic scally wag in an attempt to get Keira to loosen up and drink some Rum. Just like a real pirate. It's grade A material I'll tell you that.

Now, I'm not saying it wouldn't be a good film without him only that without Cap'n Jack this film would have far too much doom and gloom for your average viewer, which, in itself can be comical.

The plot itself is a solid one typical of the genre and as you would have guessed from the 12 certificate it's a bit darker than usual for a Disney film. The CG for example allows us to see the skeleton remains of a crew of the damned. Probably not a good idea to play the lenient parent with this one and show it to your kids. I'm 16 and still jumped out of my seat the first time I saw one of them!

However this is not about me looking like a jumping fool in the cinema. This is a list of my opinions; you may not like them; you may not agree with them but don't argue! "Do you think it wise to cross blades with a pirate” I don’t! So go and buy a copy from the shops or plunder your mates house and take his for a stunning adventure on the high seas.

I hereby end this silly argument.

Here is me ending it...


Here.

That's still moronic stubborn-ness. It's on a par with "lalala can't hear you" with fingers in your ears.

No, you haven't. I'm pretty sure.

And fine - you don't want my advice, don't take it. Take the advice of everyone else in this thread. Oh, wait, they're *all* exceptions, aren't they?

"Some of the greatest men and women in history wish death upon their enemies."

Never hate your enemies Cubist, it affects your judgement.

You see, if you'd have seen The Godfather trilogy, you'd have known that.

Fine I will not reply to any of your posts again.

It's asking for someone to give me advice but I have stated that you are the exception.

I’d have to agree that Cubist certainly is one of the greatest women in history.

Well if you regard him as a great man then yes. I was more thinking along the lines of famous military leaders such as Joan Of Arc.

AHAHAHA! Can't you even see it for youself? "NO, I WILL NOT STOP BEING STUBBORN, YOU STOP BEING STUBBORN INSTEAD!"


And here's the matter of you asking for advice, another contradiction...

And what you said earlier:

"Finally I except that there must be some truth in it but no one has told me what idiotic things I say or do. How can I be expected to progress if I can not see the flaw?"

And that *isn't* asking for someone to tell you what to change?

"I hope you get cancer"
"I hate him to an extreme level"
"despise to my very core"


And although it's slightly unrelated, it's still a great example of your ridiculous sense of proportion:

"Some of the greatest men and women in history wish death upon their enemies."

Like who? Hitler?
