Just like the theme park ride that inspired it, this movie's greatest strengths are its atmosphere and art direction. There are advantages, though, in being a pirate who can't be killed. By restoring the gold to its chest - with the right person's blood - the curse will be removed. It turns out that the medallion is the last of the cursed pieces of gold that turned Barbossa and his crew into the walking dead, always hungry and thirsty but unable to eat or drink. Turner pursues in hopes of rescuing her, aided by the notorious Captain Jack Sparrow ( Johnny Depp), with Norrington and his men right behind them. When the dreaded pirates of the Black Pearl, led by Captain Barbossa ( Geoffrey Rush), sack the town, Elizabeth offers them the medallion if they'll leave. Now grown up, Elizabeth is still wearing the token and is loved both by Commodore Norrington ( Jack Davenport) and Will ( Orlando Bloom). While he was unconscious, she took his gold medallion. On their voyage to Port Royal, Jamaica, from England, Elizabeth helped rescue a boy named Will Turner. In PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: THE CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL, Elizabeth Swann ( Keira Knightley), daughter of a governor ( Jonathan Pryce), is fascinated by pirates. But if they ask about it, you'll have to answer somehow.Īfter reviewing this movie over the weekend, I'll be letting my 8-year-old watch, but not my 6-year-old. An onlooker says "I didn't know you could do that", and Sparrow replies "you've clearly never been to Singapore." A 7-year-old would have no idea what that means. For example, Jack Sparrow tears off Elizabeth Swan's corset to allow her to breath and save her life. There are also several scenes that are sexually suggestive. It is not the sort of thing that I suspect would whittle away at one's value of human life, unlike the other movies in the series which cross that line big time. It is mostly A-Team style explosions that send people flying, but there are some scenes where people are killed in cold blood. There are battle scenes where people die. There are scenes of ghouls and skeletons taking over ships and terrorizing people. It will probably be too spooky for an early elementary school child.
