very disappointing

Rating: 3/10 (26 June 2007)

**SPOILERS** I couldn't wait to see the (hopefully) last installment of the "Pirates" series. "Curse of the Black Pearl" is probably one of my all-time favorite movies. I finally got a chance to see "At World's End" and I left bewildered and disappointed. I liked the first one because the CGI's were well-placed, very convincing and didn't flood the movie. This time my head hurt from all the CGI's. The fighting scene near the end where they're intertwined in the swirling vortex dragged on, was one big special effect and didn't really make the movie any better. Here are a few other random questions about the movie:
-Was it really necessary to kill Will and make him the captain of the Dutchman? I hated that! (remember, I'm the hopeless romantic) -What was the point of releasing Calypso? -3 hours long??? man, they could have easily shaved off 1/2 hour off the movie -How many times did Jones need to ask "Do you fear death?" -The scene where we see Jack in the "afterlife" dragged on...and on and on. Hallucinate, Lick the rock, throw the rock, pull the boat, hallucinate some more....enough already!!!!
Anyways, I have to say I was very disappointed with "At World's End". I did stick around to see the 30 second "extra clip" at the end of the credits. Yes, it was sweet, but it didn't make up for much. I really hope they don't make a 4th one.
