Weakest of the three

Rating: 5/10 (5 June 2007)

The script was soooooo weak I couldn't believe it. I mean..not even the screenwriter of this mess could make out any sense of this movie. The effort to just put ALL the people and references into this flikc was so obvious and forced, that it was more like a joke.
Johny Depp and Geoffrey Rush were the only things that kept the boat from sinking....on the other side we have this atrocious "romantic couple" of Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley --- this is the most ridiculous casting decision for a LONG time...I mean..who could take both polished puppets seriously as a pair of tough pirates ?!?!?!?..Chow Yun Fat ...Im so sad for him to be put in such a mindless character...this guy has a real talent, why waste it so shamefully ????....last but not least..the "comical characters" (the two goofy pirates and the monkey) we SOOOO overused and over the top that they were really tedious halfway through the movie already Anyway the chemistry between captains Sparrow and Barbossa was really good...no wonder since they were like the only good actors in the movie (save for miscasted Fat and Stellan Skarsgard as the Coral-Guy father of the main character).
Oh yeah, I forgot.... 1) The bad guy is cool...ruthless.. I liked that character 2) I was looking forward to seeing the Kraken once again..and WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT ! 3) The "Land of the Dead + Sparrows Hallucinatory Sequence(s)" was the only part of the movie I really enjoyed
