Come in an hour late, then you'll like it.

Rating: 3/10 (27 May 2007)

OK the original is an amazing classic but then they start going downhill, the recent edition is even more disappointing than expected. The opening is very disorienting and makes you question where the hell the movie is going, probably why I sat through the 3hrs of it.
The first hour or hour and a half drags on and not much happens, a few fight scenes which were frankly awful in comparison with ones from the original. Jack Sparrow's character is no longer funny and merely gets irritating. There are many jokes which no-one in the cinema laughed at, and the writers completely failed at replicating the humor previously seen in the trilogy.
The plot has gone to ridiculous and pathetic fantasy whereas the previous movies had a halfway decent basis in normality it now becomes a boring fairytale.
In the last hour things liven up a bit and there is some good action, suspense, tension and drama. Then you sit through ten minutes of credits to see the most pointless 10yrs later you have ever seen.
If you don't see this movie your not missing much but if you must see it i recommend getting someone to fill you in and coming in halfway through. My honest opinion is that its not worth seeing and a deserving addition to the pile of terrible movies i've seen in recent months.
Thanx for letting me express my opinion, Sterg.
