Details: Product Description From producer Jerry Bruckheimer (PEARL HARBOR) comes PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: THE CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL, the thrilling high-seas adventure with a mysterious twist. The roguish yet charming Captain Jack Sparrow's (Academy Award(R) Nominee Johnny Depp) idyllic pirate life capsizes after his nemesis, the wily Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), steals his ship, the Black Pearl, and later attacks the town of Port Royal, kidnapping the governor's beautiful daughter Elizabeth (Keira Knightley). In a gallant attempt to rescue her and recapture the Black Pearl, Elizabeth's childhood friend Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) joins forces with Jack. What Will doesn't know is that a cursed treasure has doomed Barbossa and his crew to live forever as the undead. Rich in suspense-filled adventure, sword-clashing action, mystery, humor, unforgettable characters, and never-before-seen special effects, PIRATES is a must-have epic on the grandest scale ever. Amazon.ca Miles away from his previous directorial effort, the stressful The Ring, Gore Verbinski sets sail for the adventure film genre with Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, showcasing a new facet of Johnny Depp's flawless talent. In the 17th century, in the middle of the Caribbean Sea, the Black Pearl, the ship of the buccaneer Jack Sparrow, is stolen by the infamous Captain Barbossa. The latter, hungry for mischief, attacks the town of Port Royal and abducts the governor's daughter, Elizabeth Swann. Will Turner, a childhood friend of the latter, joins forces with Sparrow for the battle during which they will discover the strange curse that strikes Barbossa and his crew. Inspired by a theme park attraction at Disney, Pirates of the Caribbean brings together most of the ingredients for a successful summer movie: panache, heroism, humor, and zing. Unfortunately, they are all gathered in the character of Jack Sparrow, whose performance by Johnny Depp is savory, all dreadlocks, smoky eyes, and mischievous riddles, and who, moreover, seems to be having a blast bringing these epic adventures to life. At his side, Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley pale in comparison. Geoffrey Rush, however, is up to the task as a diabolical villain. Presented as a double DVD, with numerous documentaries, a making-of, and 19 deleted scenes, Pirates of the Caribbean still has the merit of bringing a often neglected genre back to life: the pirate film. – Helen Faradji.
