Pirates of the Caribbean Collection - 4-Disc Set ( Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl / Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest / Pirat [ Blu-Ray, Reg.A/B/C Import - Australia ]

Great Buy if you just want the movies!
This is a UK economy boxed set of 4 BD's with all four features, each in their own flimsy but nice enough BD case suitable for the shelf. The BDs play fine in US Blu-ray players, though they are bare-bones issues, just the features, with subtitles in 10 languages, but NO extras or even bookmark capability. If you don't mind having to re-start the disk and re-navigate to your chapter every time you take a break, it's a fine bargain. And Disney's extras are usually an embarrassing waste of time, anyway.

IGNORE THE BAD REVIEWS! They're for the multiformat not the bluray! Make sure you buy the right one though
Ignore the negative reviews, they're obviously for the the multiformat seen here: https://www.amazon.com/Pirates-Caribbean-Four-Movie-Collection-Blu-ray/dp/B0054K8JSG/ref=tmm_mfc_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= And misleads people I almost didn't buy this item because of these reviews. I got it today just the bluray not the multiformat seen here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0071JADFU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 And I couldn't be happier. It is a cheap way to get all the movies. It is all four movies with separate bluray cases for each and a box to hold them together in. I highly recommend this product if it's the Bluray (not multiformat). You really don't need the box because each movie is separate in it's own bluray case. My mom loves these movies. I'll be buying another one. Get the bluray not the multiformat, not only that but the Ultraviolet would probably be expired by now anyway. I think it's time Amazon lists things separately. Because the multiformat these negative review are for is not the same as the Bluray I highly recommend and got. It's like literally buying all 4 separate movies on bluray together each with their own bluray case. Plus, this is a lot cheaper then the multiformat this is a review for.

Bare bones
With the fifth Pirates movie coming out next week, I wanted to do a marathon of the first four in advance. This seemed like a good time to upgrade my DVDs to Blu-Rays, and this set seemed like the most bang for the buck. Arrived promptly and in good condition. You're getting all four movies each in its own plastic case, all tucked into a single sleeve. The movie transfers look and sound great. If you're after a ton of extra features, this most definitely is not the set for you. Aside from some bloopers, a commentary, and a few other bits and pieces (a couple of games, some short Lego movies) there's not a lot extra here...all of which is fine for the price. Picking up the fully loaded set cost twice as much, from what I could see. This set is an affordable way to pick up the first four movies, and little else besides, for $10.50 per movie. You most definitely get what you pay for, and I'm happy with this purchase.

Quite the Collection
This is honestly quite the collection, not only does it include all 4 of the (current) Pirates of the Caribbean movies, but also working iTunes Digital Copy codes for mobile device use.For the price of admission you are getting a set of decent Blu-ray transfers of the original Pirates films, admittedly the quality of the Blu-ray experience increases as you go up in movies while the quality of the movies themselves (acting/plot) fall but you can easily find a happy medium in the process.Now the presentation of the collection is where I was actually taken by surprise. This isn't one of those cheap 'lets make a box out of paper and make it look like something it isn't' Blu-ray collections that we've all see and probably own. The Chest of Davy Jones in which this collection is stored is a hard impact plastic box with a rather impressive level of detail, a respectable interior lining, and magnetic clasps to keep the entire closed when not in use.The disk's themselves come in an accordion file cardboard holder shaped like a piece of Aztec Gold (see the first Pirates movie.) which is respectably constructed, however, like many I don't feel that this design will provide ideal protection for the discs over the long haul as there is considerable movement inside the individual slots.Closing this out there is a rolled map circa Pirates 3 which is a small scale, non-moving, reproduction of that which you see in the film...this is actually just set inside the box with the disc holder and to me feels like the lowest quality part of the entire package. It truly feels like an afterthought added in for perceived value.To those who know this series, you are getting 1080p editions with an impressive audio uptick from the normal DVD previously released. All movies are respectably done and have deep and rich blacks by default and bright colors without that odd over saturation that many Blu-ray collections tend to have.To those who don't know the series, the movies themselves are worthy of watching. Though perhaps billed a little bit towards family and younger children at times, I personally feel there are many nuances of the movies that are obviously directed to adults and more mature humor. It is most certainly worthy of a purchase if you have kids or not. I can't say much more about them without having spoilers, which I won't do, but I doubt you will be disappointed at all in any but perhaps the 4th movie which does indeed feel like a last ditch effort by Disney to cash in one more time on the popularity for the series.

Very disappointed.
Put the disc in our dvd player and received an error stating "incorrect format". The discs are not formatted for the USA. Seller refused my request to return although there was NOT a warning regarding the format of the Dvd's listed when I purchased them for my daughter for Christmas. Very disappointed.

Good: The delivery was fast
Good: The delivery was fast. The package arrived safe.Not So Good: Product description mentions that the product languages are English & German. This was not clear.What was exactly meant: The product printing, and DVD covers are written in German; while you may change the dusplay language after opening the film.

I dont really know how to title this
To me Jonny Depp's character in the last film the famous caption jack felt a little dim witted and lacked the sort of charisma he had in the last films. It really did almost ruin the film for me to see him sort of not as him self but more bewildered and drunk then usual.

Watch out: I got a set for Australia!
It turns out that I'm getting a DVD set for Australia even if it is listed as unlimited on Amazon.com! Tried two DVD's inside. Both could play for a while, but my DVD player simply powered off after a few minutes. I confirmed that the failure was not due to my DVD player with another Disney movie, i.e. Frozen, which plays well.

Love these films
What's not to love? These films are great. The box sets is awesome and I recommend it to anyone that loves the films, and those that haven't watched them. £10 for 4 films is a great deal. The first one is the best in my opinion. But they get more action packed as they go on.

Love these films
Love these films. The comedy, drama, acting, plots are all really fun and professional. The CGI is next level in terms of what they achieved even in the first film. Sometimes they drag on a bit but the action never seems to lag or make you want the film to end. It's great that they can still make a somewhat engaging movie even after 4 films. Kids love it and I think most adults would find something they liked in each film.

Go for it! Great fun for the whole family.
We are watching these gradually as a family, with popcorn, etc. We couldn't have selected a better series for this kind of family bonding. Highly recommended! Not one of the movies so far (we're on number 3) has failed to entertain and delight!

Action, Adventure, Romance and Pirates.
The films so far. They are fantastic following the Pirates of the Caribbean.The Black Pearl makes several appearances during this group of films along with Jack Sparrow Captain.It has humour, great effects, amazing actors and during the first 3 you follow a group through life but then on the 4th you have a new adventure with quite a few new faces.

Great films, bad box set!
Great films (on stranger tides, less so) but a little disappointed with the box set itself, it looks very cheap and nasty as if someone had done the printing themselves with a home printer. I would advise buying the trilogy box set and on stranger tides separate (or give it a miss).
