 Best film this year

I got this film and three others to watch, this one beng for my daughter, and so far I have watched this one three times and thought the others were below average!
Not only did the film have me laughing, but it was fun to put the voices to the characters. Not that Martin Freeman was hard as his animation looked just like him!
Everytime I have watched it I have noticed something new and funny or a little piece of scenery that I didn't notice before. The film is excellent and just as good for adults as it is for children.
The storyline is simple but the twists in the plot made it even more enjoyable and the casting was inspired.
With a bit of luck there'll be a pirates 2 out next year.

 a great film fo kids and adults alike
