This movie is AWEFUL. If it hadn't been for Mr Depp lighting up the screen, I'd have walked out. The plot was absurd and the acting dismal. The dull as ditch water fighting scene at the end was far to long, and entirely predictable. Orlando Bloom is a drip and I can't understand why anyone finds him attractive. Kira Knightly, normally a pleasure to watch, was wooden and made me cringe. Johnny Depp, however, was sensational. Never have I seen a film that is so so so incredibly bad but which has one character which is so sensational. This film is boring, badly acted, badly written and entirely unbelievable, however, I think I am in a minority, everyone else I know loved it.
