Yep: PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN (6/10)- Depps performance is fun in an over the top, unfocused kind of way but is not in the same league as his best works (DEAD MAN, ED WOOD, EDWARD SCISSOR HANDS etc).
As a huge pirate film fan (Captain Blood, Princess Bride, Treasure Island etc) the story, script and everything else are just plain silly (Not in a good Roman Polanski's PIRATES kinda way) with big gaping holes and zero entertainment value for me. The humour is obvious with no resonating wit or charm and I felt like Id seen teh whole thing done better many times before. Bottom line i evn like CUTTHROAT ISLAND more than this one.
I enjoyed NICK OF TIME (7/10), again it had holes but so much flair that I could forgive it.
SECRET WINDOW(6.5/10) is predictable and by the numbers but works as in a midday movie kinda way.
ASTRONAUTS WIFE (6/10) is definetly a contender, but PIRATES is such wasted potential it just annoys the **** out ofme.
