So maybe it is those low expectations that made this movie seem surprisingly enjoyable. This one's origins as a Disney theme park ride didn't seem too promising. This is one about the curse of the pirate movie, which has been known to turn fine actors into eye-rolling, scenery-chomping over-actors and empty the bank accounts of movie studios faster than real-life pirates pillaged their victims. No, not the one about the curse on pieces of gold that turn anyone into the walking undead, revealed as skeletons when touched by moonlight. Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl also escapes the terrible pirate curse. Johnny Depp falls prey to the pirate curse, speaking as though he is recovering from dental surgery and at times seeming to be acting in his own movie completely separate from everyone else. The script has some nicely creepy twists and some nicely saucy lines. Then come the action sequences, both energetic and entertaining. The production design has that splendidly imaginative synthesis of classic book illustrations and some innate collective unconsciousness that gets the essence of every detail right, from the curve of the sail to a pirate's pet monkey. Just like the theme park ride that inspired it, the movie's greatest strengths are its atmosphere and art direction. There are advantages, though, in being a pirate who cannot be killed. By restoring the gold to its chest - with the right person's blood - the curse will be removed. It turns out that the medallion is the last of the cursed pieces of gold that turned Barbossa and his crew into the walking dead, always hungry and thirsty, but unable to eat or drink. Turner takes off in pursuit with the notorious Captain Jack Sparrow ( Johnny Depp), with Norrington and his men right behind them. When the dreaded pirates of the Black Pearl, led by Captain Barbossa ( Geoffrey Rush) sack the town, Elizabeth offers them the medallion if they will leave. Now grown up, Elizabeth ( Bend It Like Beckham's Keira Knightley) is still wearing the medallion and is loved both by Commodore Norrington (Jack Davenport) and by Will ( Orlando Bloom).
While he was unconscious, she took his gold medallion with a skull and crossbones. On their voyage from England, Elizabeth helped rescue a boy named Will Turner. Which Side of History?
