Description:
Just when the Black Pearl had sailed proudly towards the sunset — the tide, it seems, has turned. Legend now tells of a lost disc. A buried treasure brimming with bonus material that has never seen the light of day. Untold stories, macabre mysteries. But this booty is not without peril — for there is another curse ready to befall those who would plunder these riches. A heinous hex we’ve chosen to ignore so you can enjoy this rare bounty.

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

Rating:  - Disney DVD's and Blu Rays SUCK!!!
They suck because you have to sit through endless movie previews and you can't skip them. And you have to do this EVERY TIME YOU WATCH IT!!! This is intolerable!!! DISNEY SUCKS!!
Rating: - Not bad if you don't mind having your remote control disabled for 20 minutes!
I bought this disc (Blu-Ray) because of all the positive reviews I've read about both the movie, and the Blu-Ray rendering.
All that is true - great movie, awesome visuals, fantastic sound. But I give it a ONE STAR rating for the following reason:
YOU HAVE TO SIT THROUGH 13 MINUTES OF NON-BYPASSABLE MOVIE PREVIEWS EVERY TIME YOU LOAD THE DISC OR PRESS "STOP" ON YOUR REMOTE CONTROL.
Folks, this is ridiculous. Do you like seeing a circle with a bar when you try ... Read More
Rating:  - Great Product!!!!
Pirates of the Caribbean-The Curse of the Black Pearl is a wonderful and entertaining action/comedy movie. Between Captain Jack Sparrow's sotto voce comments and the crew's groveling, I found the movie to be very humerous. It was also sprinkled with action scenes that kept my attention.
Rating: - Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A Pirates Life for Me
I watched this movie at the theater. I was entertained. I bought the Blu-ray disc (BD) and watched it at home several months later, and realized that there was a lot going on in this movie. Very entertaining, Johnny Depp, is such a nut! If you cannot stand quirky done well, this is not for you. If you still retain the ability to let your mind go and smile while doing so, this movie is the vehicle.
Rating: - Pirated of the Carribean - Black Pearl
Amazing picture quality!! Worth the extra expense to purchase this title on blu ray.
