Pirates shouldn't have been a trilogy.

Rating: 5/10 (6 August 2006)

you know, I'm not going to lie I was expecting a lot from this film. Johnny Depp is one of my all time favorite actors, and I think he's infinitely talented, but not even he could fully salvage this blockbuster. The first and second films seemed disconnected almost entirely which was probably my biggest qualm with this movie. The character's motives at times also seem rather confused, in particular in respect to Johnny Depp and Keira Knightley parts (and their relationship... and his sexuality...). The effects as expected were amazing to say the least however; a semi redeeming element of the film, however the feeling that this movie was a complete sellout just cant seem to leave me alone. Honestly perhaps this trilogy was better left as a single film.
