Could have been Great but this is a Average movie.

Rating: 5/10 (4 August 2007)

A TON OF SPOILERS 1. Plot / Script ...Convoluted is the best word to describe it. The movie should have been cut to a 2 hour length. Jack's "Hell" sequence was lame,boring and could have been more interesting. The Pirate Lords characters should have been more "fleshed out". The Epic ship battle scene that was a man of war getting broadsided by 2 pirate ships and the "Captain" not doing anything about it ?? And the rest of the fleet turning tail and running, No Way, the pirates were outclassed and out gunned. And the best one was BROKE Pirate Lords ...what the ?? That would really command loyalty if you were a Pirate Captain let alone a Lord.
2. Acting ... Johnny Depp.. is a very talented actor , but too much Jack Sparrow is a bad thing.
Orlando Bloom .. did a OK job with the script that was written for him,I think he was a lot better in the 1st Pirates tho.
Keira Knightley ...Again she did OK with the lines/script that she had except for the speech that was lousy.
Geoffrey Rush and his monkey ..Probably could have carried the movie by himself, A Pirates Pirate. I would like to see him in a Pirate movie LEAD role. Hint Hint Disney ! There was Good,Bad and Indifferent performances by the supporting characters as well.
3. Special Effects/Cinematography/etc. There was some very good camera/computer work. Well timed and done humor injected in the movie.
This movie could have been a Lot better with a tighter script and character development. It was not a bad movie.lets hope that if there is a number 4 that is does not follow the downward trend that 1st three have done. 1 Very Good 2 Good 3 OK .
BTW: If you do check my vote history I do vote my favorites high.
