believe it or not, some things make it worth seeing

Rating: 7/10 (11 December 2007)

OK, so "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" goes a little overboard in being a spectacle. But you still gotta love Johnny Depp's character. And yes, Keith Richards appears as Jack Sparrow's father (a Rolling Stone in a Disney movie...whodathunkit?!). Still, I prefer that the series ends here. They've really gone as far as they can with this one, as the mixture of everything seriously exceeds any pretense of reality (and they have to rely on one-liners). So, this is a worthy end to the series; at least I hope that it's the end. Also starring Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightley, Geoffrey Rush, Chow Yun-Fat, Stellan Skarsgard and Tom Hollander.
As for the whole part at the beginning about "If you help a pirate, then you're as guilty as the pirate", and the suspension of habeas corpus and legal counsel, where have we heard that?
