Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl -07/09 - Page 4

Great movie! Implausible (but hey, it's about pirates! ), but a fun romp overall. Keira Knightley is gorgeous - the reason people think she looks older than 18 might be because she has a very chiselled face and a womanly body that's quite well developed.

Watching "Pirates" made me realize - once again - how damn *lucky* Hollywood is to have Johnny Depp. Not only is he gorgeous eye-candy but a dynamo of an actor as well. Captain Sparrow steals the show - I loved his character to bits - even the wierd mascara/eyeliner.

The music was great, too, would love to get the soundtrack.

Yeah, I hadn't thought about it at the time, but Keira does look like Brooke Shields also. I agree with the music; I'd love to get the soundtrack.

haven't seen this yet, but i am reallly anxious (not much theater time as of late)

I thought Keira Knightley looked like a way hotter Natalie Portman. I wonder if she has a Stalker Organization, er, I mean Fan Club.

Captain Jack was a hoot. Everybody thought he was such a bungler, but he was always thinking about how to take maximum advantage of every situation. What a brilliant character!

You are the one and only person I know that disliked this movie even in the slightest, just thought you should know. Different strokes for different folks, I suppose.

I like this movie so much I forced my boyfriend (who really thought this movie was for little kids) to go see it with me again. He loved it too.

Johnny Depp is genius in this movie. And Mr.Bloom/Ms. Knightly (depending on your sex) keeps the girls/guys happy

I've seen this movie 4 times already. I just love it.

I have to say that I think Orlando looks great with his natural hair color as well. Although, he's hot as Legalos too.

I've always liked Johnny Depp but I have to say that this is his best movie in quite awhile. (Just my opinion, of course) He was so hilarious.

On the opening night I took two of my sisters and two of my nephews to see the movie and my nephews (4 and 7) enjoyed the movie a lot and did not have nightmares. That's not to say other little kids wouldn't have nightmares. I did, of course, try to prepare them for it though.

Keira has been compared to Natalie Portman a lot lately mainly due to the fact that she played Natalie's double in one of the Star Wars movies. I've read that on the set, once the two were in identical costumes, even their families had a hard time telling them apart.

Oh, interesting. I was unaware of the double thing. It makes sense, though. I really think she bears a strong resemblance to Ms. Portman, only she's way hotter (as I previously mentioned

).

No doubt. That girl is SMOKING! I'd steal a ship and fight undead pirates for her, no doubt.

In case you didn't recognize her, Kiera played Juliette in the movie "Bend it like Beckham".... I have no doubt that she is going to be one of the "next big things" in hollywood... she's insanely beautiful, and obviously is pretty good at selecting movies (Bend it did very well)

Haven't seen "Bend It", but yeah, she's definately insanely beautiful.
