Pirates, ye be warned.

Rating: 4/10 (26 May 2007)

*MASSIVE PLOT SPOILERS BELOW!* After squealing in anticipation at seeing this movie for almost an entire year, I found this movie was a massive disappointment. Now, I can agree that it DOES have its merits, like when Norrington (*sniffles*) set free Elizabeth and the crew from the Dutchman's prison, however overall too many things happened that made this movie completely...awful.
Let us examine this claim for a moment. While the first two movies were a huge success, this one isn't doing so well. Why? Too many overused, overacted, unimportant plot lines.
The scene at World's End with Jack and...himself was bizarre. As was the thing with the crab/rock thing. And the scene in the prison when imaginary Jack talks to himself. I found the scene with Norrington and Elizabeth heart-wrenching, as well as the scene that followed- *sobs*- his character in this movie was definitely stronger, and many of us wish he was around more.
Chow Yun-Fat's character does basically nothing, as does Governor Swann, Mr. Mercer and many others.
The ending (after the credits roll) was disappointing. Why, I found myself asking furiously, doesn't Elizabeth stay with Will? WHY? It's ridiculous. They spent the entire trilogy attempting to be together, only to live separate lives in the end.
So, all in all, PLEASE do not go see this movie. Or if you do, be warned.
