Although this is the first one, even though it was filmed in 2003, more than ten years have passed since, but from my slightly critical eyes, this film is not out of date. At least I enjoy the plot and acting skills of this film. , Special effects. Speaking of this, it is indeed a little worrying. China's commercial blockbusters are still almost rhythmic~
First of all, the story of this movie is really wonderful. It is compact and has no sense of procrastination. The plot is tactfully ups and downs, and it always catches the audience's attention. For example, at the beginning of the film, it did not explain Jack’s background and why he suddenly appeared in a port in the Caribbean. Instead, through the development of the plot, a series of stories that happened to Jack were constantly displayed in the dialogue; a chance encounter in the forge. In Will, Jack should have guessed something through the swordsmanship and Will’s appearance. Just a sentence "You made these swords?" can make most of the audience realize, but there is no special purpose in the film. There is no sense of procrastination. Especially when the beautiful heroine Elizabeth is taken away by a group of evil-looking pirates, I believe the audience must crane their necks to know what will happen next. Because a beautiful flower-like beauty falls into the hands of a group of bad people, it is a normal person who will speculate the outcome of the beautiful woman with the worst malice. But it is strange that neither the ugly crew nor the evil Captain Barbosa seem to have the kind of lust that a bad person should have for beautiful women, which naturally leads to the biggest clue of the film-curse! Of course, I won’t go into details about the subsequent plots of the ups and downs. Whether it’s Jack and Will’s taking the Royal Navy’s ships into and out of the Isle of Death, or against the immortal Captain Basab, Jack also Secretly stealing a coin to make yourself immortal, not only makes the audience marvel at the case, it is really hearty!
In terms of acting skills, I have to mention the soul character of the film-Jack's actor Johnny Depp. His exaggerated and unpretentious body language, humorous but not vulgar tone, wit and brave but unfortunately. Experience, a little selfish villain mentality, but did not lose the image of the bottom line of life, etc., which made Captain Jack a three-pointer. Pirates are supposed to be bad guys, but if they are performed too badly, they must be inconsistent with the main theme of the society, but if they are performed too justice, they lose their charm. Therefore, the righteous and evil should be presented to the audience. The most suitable image. How to create the role of Captain Jack, who is both righteous and evil? Obviously Depp has his own understanding and carried it through in this film with extreme risk. That's why we saw such a vivid and lovely image of a pirate captain. As the biggest boss of the film, Captain Bashabo and his crew, from another perspective, these roles have also been portrayed extremely successfully. One by one, there was a strong contrast and contrast when the beautiful and flowery female protagonists came into their hands, which fully revealed the evil and pain in their hearts.
There is also a very big point in this film, that is, the special effects. Even if I am a Virgo, it is difficult to pick out what's wrong. In particular, Captain Bashabo and his crew were cursed and turned into skulls under the moonlight. As a layman, it is difficult to say whether this is the most difficult part of the film, but as an audience, I find it very enjoyable to watch, and it has no sense of acting. I like the way the crew are in and out from the place under the moonlight when they are fighting, switching back and forth between the human body and the skull mode, haha~
Finally, I still have to mention something interesting about the film, but there are still some implications. In the film, the word pirate oath appears more frequently, but ironically, this oath has always been proposed by a weaker party, but it has never been really viewed, or it has been slyly circumvented. Either it is in the interests of the other party to be obeyed pretentiously. There are also two lines buried in the film about freedom. One is that Captain Jack wants to retake his ghost ship, and works tirelessly for it, because he feels that he is truly free only on the ghost ship; Another is the freedom that Bashabo and his crew pursue. They are very evil, full of greed and stupid, and they are very miserable. Although they have immortality, possess the most powerful ghost ship and countless treasures of gold and silver, they have lost the most to the world because of the curse. Intuitively, this is the great punishment and pain, so everything they do is to lift the curse and retrieve the freedom of the soul. There was a scene that impressed me very deeply. When Captain Basab was down, an apple fell from his arms, which actually revealed his inner pain and desire for freedom intuitively.
