Editorial Review: Product Description: Pirates of The Caribbean UMD Movie From Buena Vista MODEL- 29473 VENDOR- UMD MOVIES FEATURES- "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse Of the Black Pearl" PSP UMD Watch movies on your PSP handheld with DVD picture quality in widescreen. This full length movie fits on a single UMD disc. Following his surprise-hit American remake of The Ring in 2002, director Gore Verbinski took on Pirates of the Carribean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, the second of recent films to be based upon Disney theme-park rides (the first being The Country Bears). When Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley), the daughter of Governor Swann (Jonathan Pryce) is kidnapped by a group of pirates led by Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) and taken aboard their ship, The Black Pearl, Will Turner (Orlando Bloom), the young man who loves Elizabeth despite the fact that she is promised to another, sets out to rescue her. But he cant do it alone, so he enlists the help of swashbuckling ship captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp). Together the two chase after The Black Pearl, but they soon discover that the captain and crew arent your average pirates. Cursed to remain between the living and the dead, Barbossa and his men look like skeletons when basked in the moonlight. When it is revealed that the only thing that can break the curse is Elizabeths blood, Jack and Will are faced with a race against time and a battle against the undead to save the Governors daughter. * Starring: Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush, Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightley, Jack Davenport. -- SPECIFICATIONs -------------------------------- Amazon.com: You won't need a bottle of rum to enjoy Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, especially if you've experienced the Disneyland theme-park ride that inspired it. There's a galleon's worth of fun in watching Johnny Depp's androgynous performance as Captain Jack Sparrow, a roguish pirate who could pass for the illegitimate spawn of rockers Keith Richards and Chrissie Hynde. Depp gets all the good lines and steals the show, recruiting Orlando Bloom (a blacksmith and expert swordsman) and Keira Knightley (a lovely governor's daughter) on an adventurous quest to recapture the notorious Black Pearl, a ghost ship commandeered by Jack's nemesis Capt. Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), a mutineer desperate to reverse the curse that left him and his (literally) skeleton crew in a state of eternal, undead damnation. Director Gore Verbinski (The Ring) repeats the redundant mayhem that marred his debut film Mouse Hunt, but with the writers of Shrek he's made Pirates into a special-effects thrill-ride that plays like a Halloween party on the open seas. Aye, matey, we've come a long way since Jason and the Argonauts! --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - The Swash Never BucklesThis film as a stand alone is fine, but one needs to see (and own) the trilogy to really 'get it'. The pirates trilogy is wonderful fun. Part cliffhanger serial, part pastiche, it works on every level. To not see it complete is sad, to not own all three is a tradgedy. Great work by everyone from cast to techs to director. See it, get it, enjoy it, now... Rating: - Not The BestAll of these Pirates of the Caribean movies are gross. The first film shows not only pirates but ugly rotton skeletal figures representing pirates. The captain of one ship drinks some rum and the liquid just drips through his skeleton. All of the films are too long also. The second film shows Captain Jack Sparrow holding a thumping human heart. The first one and all of them have some language in them. The violence isn't graphic but it has a little humor in it. There's some humor in the films ...

Tell that to Disney because their ride "Pirates of the Caribbean" has spawned one of the best film franchises ever and it all started here. "The Curse of the Black Pearl" was a hit in 2003 and to this day, I watch it all the time. It's fun, funny, action packed, and enthralling and never leaves you bored. It's an instant classic. Pros: *Outstanding performances from Depp, Rush, Knightley, ... Read More Rating: - Great ProductAmazing price for blu-ray. Fast delivery! Great movie, and on blu-ray is awesome! Rating: - Why is the rum gone!?I love this movie, I saw it for the first time shortly before the sequel, and man do I regret not seeing it in theaters! See it, and the sequels!
