Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Here -- in a Jerry Bruckheimer-produced high-seas adventure that incorporates roaring cannons, oddball comedy, a love story and more than a touch of the supernatural -- Depp unleashes his theatrical bravado. He's hilarious.

rotten:
Buries its treasures -- mainly Johnny Depp in eye shadow and dreads as Captain Jack Sparrow -- in briny cliches.

Pirates reminds me of a vintage MGM musical, a movie that is more choreographed than directed, and one that serves up good clean fun of the PG-13 variety.

rotten:
At, say, 85 minutes, this would have been a jolly little swashbuckler, but at 143 it turns into an unholy trial.

An awkward pirate epic that's jampacked with energy, ambition and spectacular effects.
