Best. Film .ever

Rating: 10/10 (31 December 2007)

Lets tackle what makes this film great.
Number one, its story line is fantastic!!!! It closes quite a few questions but still manages to leave some open, which gives a possible opening for a 4th movie. While some people find the story hard to follow, I felt that it was easy enough to follow and a very good way to portray it too. The many plots made it more interesting and were entwined perfectly, it could have ended up like Love Actually, which is a great film but its multiple stories are more separate.
Number two. The acting is fantastic, and I mean that of ALL the actors. I have to say that Keira Knightly was one of the best, her reactions during the more emotional scenes were amazing and really made you feel her pain. Johnny Depp was hilarious as ever n his Jack Sparrow garb, using his ability for visual humour as well as verbal humour too, he is a genius. And Orlando Bloom, I heartily disagree with people who say he's a bad actor. He has an amazing ability to act with his eyes. He portrayed hurt and anger and a whole range of emotions with just his his eyes. All the actors were remarkable. His acting ability is very high too, he is just unfortunate enough in this film to act beside Johnny Depp, whose perfectly OTT (in a good way, Johnny Depp made Jack Sparrow the icon he is) means his ability is over looked
Number 3 the characters are strong. Jack Sparrow, his yearning for immortality suits his character image as the slightly mad but funny pirate Will Turner. Conflict. Between his true love and his father. Elizabeth Swann, New responsibilities and also the fact that her heart belongs with Will what ever happens Throughout the film it is clear that Will and Elizabeth constantly think about each other (and their chemistry is amazing) and would do anything to save each other. This films settles the Willabeth/Sparrabeth debate with the incredible beautiful climax and battles makes you wish that your life was like theirs
It is also an incredible funny film, it successfully entwines this with the absolutely amazing fight scenes, most of the stunts were done by the actors themselves which shows how high their ability is, and the tear jerking emotional scenes. This film contains the best sword fighting scenes ever and really took the word "swashbuckling" to a whole new level
