Enjoyable, fun, but I miss Gore

Rating: 9/10 (20 May 2011)

Johnny Depp, as always, delivers a great performance as our beloved Captain Jack Sparrow. The rest of the cast was also great. Beautiful scenery, interesting plot, and plenty of humor, as we have all come to expect. The music, needless to say, was of superb quality, as always with Hans Zimmer. However, I could not help but notice that the direction was a little less sharp that with the previous three films. For part five, and I truly hope there IS a part five, can we bring back Gore Verbinski? With the previous three, there was a magic formula, and he was a part of that. There were scenes that, while good, could have been even better. All in all, recommended for all POTC fans.
