A Drunken Ride

“Just close your eyes and pretend it’s all a bad dream. That’s how I get by.” - Captain Jack Sparrow

If you’re looking for life advice, then Jack sparrow isn’t the one you should go to. Unless you’d like to end up having a drunk therapy session with him, which could end up helping or making your situation worse. The latter should be expected.

But when you are feeling down or bored, adventurous, comedic, combined with fantasy, are the best movie genres one could watch. That is why many people love The Lord of The Rings film series as well as Harry Potter. If you love The Lord of The Rings or Harry Potter, then you would definitely love Pirates of The Caribbean. I feel that these types of movies inspire you to be more adventurous. I’m sure when you were a child and watched Spongebob Squarepants or Avatar: The Last Airbender, you felt energetic after and copied their moves/ideas. This is why I feel that adventurous movies give you a rush to get up and get inspired. They make you want to live your life more spontaneously, and give you the feeling that you also can do whatever you want.

Adventurous movies that are also fanciful… make me interested in watching them. There’s always something that catches your attention and keeps you wanting more. In this case of Pirates of The Caribbean it’s, is he dead? How can he come back from this? The plot twists in this series are creative, you’d never think of them. If you did think of them, then maybe you should become a film producer/writer!

Captain Jack Sparrow (don't forget the Captain, he wouldn’t appreciate that!), is a pirate and is the main character in the Pirates of The Caribbean series. He is a free spirit, does what he wants, whenever he wants. He’s carefree, which is probably why he always seems to get himself in trouble and have many enemies.

I was always fond of his spontaneity. He always survived whatever dark pit he was thrown into. Although he was impulsive and cocky, he was a mastermind and a great liar, which came in handy at times. Sometimes you would think that he isn’t the brightest, but that's not true at all. He gets bursts of intelligence whenever he needs to, otherwise he’s saving his genius for later needed times. Trusts me, he needs those bursts of intelligence at those times.

“Not all treasure’s silver and gold, mate,” Captain Jack sparrow.

I also love that he was portrayed by the amazing and talented actor, Johnny Depp, who played the role exquisitely. No one could have embodied the essence of Jack Sparrow better than him. It would be great if a new movie was made about Jack’s childhood so we get an idea of how he turned out the way he is.

Even if you’re not a big fan of Johnny Depp, there is a great chance that you’ll love Jack thanks to his adventurous nature and tremendous luck. Also, Some of the other main characters are Orlando Bloom, who plays the role of a blacksmith. And Keira Knightley, who plays a governor’s daughter.

You will definitely have a blast watching this movie!
