I don't understand how anyone could dislike that movie
It's like anything else: YMMV. Johnny Depp isn't everyone's Dream Hunk (though you couldn't tell by the fan fiction), and neither is Orlando Bloom. There's also a number of issues with authenticity and anachronistic attitudes which might jolt some people out of their suspension of disbelief.
It's not a bad movie, but it's not my thing. Possibly because my concept of "fun summer flick" is way more serious than the rest of the world's, or because I'm not familiar with the disney ride.
