funny how mark kermode disses directors..until they make a really god film: gore verbinski made Rango, Chris Columbus wrote the script for Gremlins, Guy Richie made Sherlock Holmes...so the only director hopelessly lost as far as artistry is concerned seems to be michael bay. i don't think the Pirates' films are as bad as some people say but kermode is right: they're stupid funfare and nothing beyond that but if you're bored one afternoon i don't think there's anything wrong with watching POTC.

I actually did like POTC. Not as much as everyone else did, didn't think it was worth all of the hype, but I found it a fun if overlong diversion and I thought that Depp's and Rush's performances were amusing, and that they did what most actors in Bruckheimer do and rose above the material. It was fun.
Once. One time, it was mildly amusing and innocuous. Let's all now enjoy it an move on with our lives. Unfortunately, by hyping it as a new classic and sequeling it to death, I got sick of it.

The Marlon Brando comparison is perfect; I never thought of it that way before.
