After losing his beloved to a group of fierce pirates, Will the blacksmith teams up with a notorious pirate, Captain Jack Sparrow, for an attempt of rescuing her. Unknown facts will come to life and soon both will find out that there's more to each other than they would have imagined. It's an adventure full of action, suspense but also laughter, which introduces the now famous Jack Sparrow and his pirate deeds, especially regarding the young blacksmith. Their journey will prove to be full of unpredictable, for better or worse, but it will always be accompanied by tons of jokes, puns and funny moments.It features a couple of great and well described characters which do a really good job in maintaining a very enjoyable tale set at sea. Together with a good plot, they end up making a pretty impressive movie. Add into the equation a couple of great actors and some great special effects and you end up with this great achievement. What I enjoyed mostly about this film, besides its catchy atmosphere, is its comical side. It manages to be very good, in moments when you least expect it, without seeming to forced or desperate about it. It kept me interested till the end, especially due to its lack of predictability, thus it managed to be a very good movie. I have to note that I wasn't impressed by the plot. Although good, it wasn't something that will blow your mind or something. A little bit of polish could have made this one a true masterpiece.

The best Pirate action since.. well, ever! Full of awesome swashbuckling action and good humor. Fantastical elements and a great cast of characters, (most notably one of my all time favorites -Jack Sparrow) make it really appealing! The main theme is just perfect for a movie like this!

This movie was awesome. Just plain awesome. While the plot can be, and sometimes is, quite confusing, the effects were brilliant given it was 2003, with the 'Skeleton crew' scene being one of the best things I have ever seen in a movie. It also manages to perfectly balance itself between being humorous and action packed. Usually, movies tend to lean too far over to one side, but this one manages to be downright hilarious at times, such as when Elizabeth and Sparrow get drunk on an island and dance in circles around a fire singing 'a pirate's life for me' and also exciting and suspenseful, like during the sea battle.At times, it is also kind of scary, so well done for that. 'Skeleton crew' was a very scary scene, and so was 'underwater attack' in which Barbosa's skeleton warriors march along the bottom of the sea to get at the imperial ships.The musical scores are awesome, and really well done. In total, this is an amazing, very exciting and fun movie that's definitely worth watching.

Disney made a truly amazing story when they came out with the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie, I remember going to the theater and watching it for the first time with my parents and loving it. Now I am a true pirates fan and love the series. It was our first introduction to the famous pirate Captain Jack Sparrow and his behavior. It also introduced Will and Elizabeth the two iconic lovers in the series. The story is about a young man who falls in love with a young woman and their paths cross with swashbuckling pirates. The story was good about the cursed ship and it's crew and the cursed treasure. This beautiful story has brought on four other movies and has a great legacy. Nothing can beat the original Pirates of the Caribbean. I am watching all of them right up to the new fifth installment. The Pirates life for me.10/10 for Disney's first Pirates.
