Movie Reviews of Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
Movie Review: The best Blu Ray transfer I've seen!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is such a fantastic movie!! The plot is really neat. It seems that some pirates stole Cortez's gold, but there's a curse. For the pirates to break the curse, they have to get all of the gold back and offer up blood with it. I know that's a fast review, but that's the core of the movie.
The characters are fantastic!! I love Jack Sparrow! When I think of the word "pirate" he comes to mind. Depp portrayed Sparrow in a fantastic way! He brought so much life, wit, humor, charm and personality to Sparrow. Sparrow adds to much to the movie. All of the characters play off Sparrow so well it gives the movie depth. The other characters, Will, Elisabeth, the commander, Barbasossa and the pirates are fantastic!
This movie has so many plot twists that will keep the viewer glued to the very end, and wanting more. I know I did.
The transfer to blu ray is the best transfer I've ever seen! I was honestly blow away. The sound is fantastic! You really hear the explosions and the waves at the ships sail through the water. The sound is amazing! I just couldn't believe what I was hearing. It honestly was that good! The image transfer was outstanding! The images were so crisp, clear and sharp it adds a wonderful aspect to the movie. As I said, this was the BEST movie transfer to Blu Ray that I've ever seen. You can set the movie so it will little facts will pop up and tell you pirate facts that deal with the movie. This adds a great feature to a FANTASTIC movie!! Kuddo's!
I loved the main menu page to the movie! It's the best I've ever seen, and it's interactive! I've seen some really poor main movie menus, but this isn't one of them. It's outstanding! I loved it!
This is such a great swashbuckleing movie. It has it all, humor, great images, great sound, pirates, treasures, plot twists, spooky images and curses. How can you not love this movie. It has to be in my top two favorite moves! If you have a blu ray player, then this is a "must get" movie.

Summary of Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
From producer Jerry Bruckheimer (PEARL HARBOR) comes PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: THE CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL, the thrilling high-seas adventure with a mysterious twist. The roguish yet charming Captain Jack Sparrow's (Academy Award(R) Nominee Johnny Depp) idyllic pirate life capsizes after his nemesis, the wily Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), steals his ship, the Black Pearl, and later attacks the town of Port Royal, kidnapping the governor's beautiful daughter Elizabeth (Keira Knightley). In a gallant attempt to rescue her and recapture the Black Pearl, Elizabeth's childhood friend Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) joins forces with Jack. What Will doesn't know is that a cursed treasure has doomed Barbossa and his crew to live forever as the undead. Rich in suspense-filled adventure, sword-clashing action, mystery, humor, unforgettable characters, and never-before-seen special effects, PIRATES is a must-have epic on the grandest scale ever.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
