Pirates of the Caribbean
(Reviewed July 24, 2003)
-
Lightweight but unexpectedly not-bad adventure movie, with Johnny Depp as an amusingly swishy pirate and Keira Knightley (the skinny blond knockout from "Bend It Like Beckham") as a comely
teenage damsel in distress. Unfortunately, at well over two hours in length, this movie is at least a half-hour too long; the padded-out last third seems as if it never will end. But what the hell, it's still far
better than the even-more-interminable but nowhere near as fun "Lara Croft."
