Worthy ending!

Rating: Null/10 (26 May 2007)

Pirates of the Caribbean, At World's End is a great ending for a great series. The beginning in Singapore is not only good action but great comedy, and Jack Sparrow's hallucinations in Davy Jones's locker are nothing short of genius. As wonderful a character as he is, Jack was starting to get a bit stale after two movies of being just the same, which is why his character development was welcomed.
The only criticism I have has to do with the nothing-happening moments that were quite frequent especially in the middle; the story wasn't going on, and the characters merely talked and joked around. However, with such awesome characters and setting, any minute of Pirates is better than a minute without Pirates.
Of the actors especially Orlando Bloom deserves a special mention; he brought his character forward in huge leaps, and his emotions were true and convincing; Will is a real hero with a heart (no pun intended), and the audience feels it.
Keira Knightley gave her best performance as well, and her character was given welcome development; instead of being kick-ass all the time, she had to suffer and mature.
The end battle was absolutely breathtaking and alone worth seeing this movie. The ending was very surprising, something I hadn't quite been able to guess in a Disney movie. It was bittersweet and touching, but we got a ray of hope with the scene after the credits.
This movie was a worthy ending to one of the best movie series ever, even with a slightly complex plot that required a sharp eye and good knowledge of the previous movies.
