Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl is one of the best blockbusters ever

So, obviously there is a lot, A LOT of nostalgia in this, but I just love Pirates of the Caribbean The Curse of the Black Pearl so damn much.It has one of the best movie soundtracks ever (imo), even the piano tutorial medley sums up all leading leitmotifs perfectly ( https://youtu.be/YE9cxYd27Jw ), that is catchy and sometimes even clever, but always fitting.It has one of the most charismatic lead performances by Johnny Depp, it has great supporting actors like Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightley or Geoffrey Rush all portraying kinda unique characters.But I think the key element is, that it has a plausible story, that firstly doesn’t twist itself too much, but also doesn’t take it self too seriously. Yet everything makes sense in the films context, nearly all plot points make sense and there is some real mystery and tension in the end.All of that delivered with great visual effects, some really good choreographed action and lots of humor make for one of the most entertaining movies I have ever seen. It may not be a technical masterpiece and milestone achievement in movie history, but it is damn sure one of my favorites and a really great nostalgic movie.​What do you think about PoTC 1: The Curse of the Black Pearl via /r/movies https://ift.tt/2QzQJxt
