Product Description:
Johnny Depp, Keira Knightly, Orlando Bloom, Geoffrey Rush
Amazon.co.uk Review:
The movie that helped breathe new life into the summer blockbuster, the success of Pirates Of The Caribbean: Curse Of The Black Pearl is remarkable for several reasons. Firstly, there's the unlikely source material. There's no previous history of theme park rides inspiring major hit movies, yet that's just what's happened here. Secondly, there's the patchy performance of pirate-related movies over the years (does anyone remember seeing Cutthroat Island in a cinema?). And then there's that performance from Johnny Depp, the one that had Disney executives in a flap prior to the release of the movie. His Captain Jack Sparrow is a fantastic, unlikely creation, proving to be both unpredictable yet utterly compelling. Such is his impact on the film that it's hardly surprising Depp snared an Oscar nomination for the role.
Yet Depp's performance shouldn't blind anyone to the film's many other qualities. The supporting cast, particularly the likes of Geoffrey Rush, Jack Davenport and Jonathan Pryce are all clearly having a whale of a time, while Gore Verbinski's pacey yet controlled direction rarely lets the momentum slow. And with all their work grounded by a quality script and worthwhile story, the end result is a film that clicks in many, many different ways.
Of course, it's now proved the inspiration for a pair of sequels, yet no matter how they turn out, Pirates Of The Caribbean: Curse Of The Black Pearl will always stand as a quite brilliant example of what happens on those rare occasions when Hollywood blockbusters get it absolutely right. And it's a treat that can easily be enjoyed time after time. --Simon Brew

- Captain Pugwash eat yer heart out.
I recently purchased an LCD TV and in order to take advantage of its HD capability I splashed out on a Blue-ray player as well as a Sound bar. While I accepted that I would be getting a superior picture I wasnt exactly blown away by the BR disks I bought .
That is until yesterday.
Having ordered this disk over the weekend, I loaded it into the tray and pressed play.
Talk about revelation. The clarity of the picture is out of this world. Add the sound quality. (Note to self, must ... Read More

- Entertaining film - but where is the audio commentary?
Enough has been said about the film itself - it's big, it's funny and it's silly. And there might be a slightly mad and charming performance from a certain mr. Depp in there... So far, so very good. (If you happen to like that kind of thing - and I do.) But - here's the rub: A sticker on all three films proudly states that the Blu-rays contain "all the bonus features of the standard DVD version". The highlight of those features, in my opinion, was the audio commentaries, especially the funny one by ... Read More
Rating: - Accomplished, Disney pirate movie combined with a high quality blu-ray finish
Pirates of the Caribbean is a fine, swashbuckling non-stop action movie. The 3 principal protagonists Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley all put in commanding performances to compliment the well written script. There are plenty of twists to the tale that are unexpected and Jack Sparrow seems to change sides almost at a whim. This feature not only combines action with fantasy but enriches the tale with humour and a romance between Wil and Elizabeth aswell.

Rating: - Ultimate Home Version
In my opinion POTC COTBP is easily the best in the series.
This bluray verion is awesome. Picture quality is amazing and incredibly atmospheric - the film draws me in more than ever on this format.
I imagine most people are aware of the plot but essentially it revolves around the more-than-slightly-potty "Captain" Jack Sparrow trying to regain his control over the Black Pearl by manipulating pretty much anyone he can to help him achieve his end! Johnny Depp is great in this film, ... Read More
Rating: - Only film I can watch over and over
Fantastic film and the only one I can watch again and again. The story is great, the film is thoroughly entertaining and the quality on Blue-Ray is excellent. Buy it. You will not be disappointed.
