What A Ride!

Rating: 8/10 (2 July 2011)

I'm terribly late to the "Pirates" franchise but I'm glad I finally came around. Action/fantasy was never really my thing but boy am I glad my nephew forced me watch it now.
This movie, (the series actually) is a fantastic escape from reality. Action, adventure and of course, pirates! From beginning to end, the script kept me engaged, the effects wowed me and the score knocked me off my feet and this was one of those rare movies where I was literally on the edge of my seat, cheering at some bits, covering my eyes in horror at others and I think even a scream or two escaped from my lips.
Not much else needs to be said but I felt it couldn't hurt to add my two cents. This is one of those movies that a lot of people stay away from because it doesn't seem like their "thing" but I can assure you that as someone who enjoys indies, dramas and foreign films, I actually had a really great time watching this.
