Expensive Roller-coaster

Rating: 8/10 (25 May 2007)

This movie is definitely worth to watch. If you like a roller-coaster of fantastic action scenes, here and there some humor, and if you do not mind some unrealistic situations, its even a must to see.
Big, bigger, biggest, thats how I feel the last movie in the Pirates of the Caribean trilogy can be best described. But biggest doesn't mean best. The main feeling that stays with me is a simple economic principle. The more money you spend, the more you should expect. Being one of the most expensive movies ever, it is also normal that all scenes are so special, and no effort was saved to use animations.
The makers have tried to combine a lot of plot lines, but this does not really add value. The plot itself is traditional, and the acting itself is average. But at the end, would you expect something else? 168 minutes is this roller-coaster long. It could have done with 120. But imagine yourself going to a fun-park, you see this big big roller-coaster, of which you precise know what to expect (you have done so many before), would you still go on it? Off course! And thats what this movie is about. A big, expensive roller-coaster, which is difficult to resist.
Because of the simple plot, definitely no 10/10, but because of the huge fun sitting on this roller-coaster, I give it an 8/10
