Yeah I saw it yesterday, it was shit. I even had low expectations and it still didn't meet them. That's when you know a movie is crappy. lol

i haven't seen any of those movies. i think pirates are drab. they're dirty and there are never any robots around. kind of like hippies, only more violent.

Well, I found it a tad confusing. Initially I thought it was just me, but then I asked my friends and they agreed. Lots of things weren't explained properly, for example I didn't understand who the hell was double-crossing who. Ultimately, I don't particularly care that things weren't explained fully, because even if they had of been I still wouldn't of given a shit lol
I found myself becoming distracted very easily, which is a pretty clear indicator that a movie is bad.

The humour was forced.
The action was boring - nothing new, seen it all before in the second one.
And I just didn't care. I was like... would someone die already...jeez! lol

Oh well!

I'm sure avid Pirates fans will love it.
Blind Love..!

Peace and Love

I've seen mixed reviews on this one. One reviewer will give it 1 1/2 out of 4, and the next one will give it 4 out of 5. confuse

I've heard from 2 people that it's ok, but the first one is definitely the best. And one of the people who said that is an AVID Johnny Depp fan and adores the "Pirates" movies. Although I did hear it does tie quite a bit of the storylines together. I'll still have to see it and of course add it to my dvd collection. Have to have the entire set. I hear the visuals are pretty amazing.

Johnny is a great actor and I love most of his work, but these Pirate movies suck. I could barely get through the first one and I never did see the second, so I highly doubt I will bother with the third. Enough is enough.

I really liked the first one, the 2nd I saw on the plane to Minneapolis and I fell asleep while watching it, I thought it sucked.....I guess I will see this one on the plane as well and I probably won't like it....

I think all the characters surrounding the main ones make it worth seeing the flick Captain Barbosa/o is one for the ages...don't forget there's a monkey...the two knuckleheads ...and lastly the inspiration for Sparrow








KEITH RICHARDS


whom i understand kept the custom guitar he used in the movie

You're right, the 5 seconds that Keith was in was very exciting. Barbosa was a tad boring, actually come to think of it he was probably under used and that's why he seemed useless.

Essentially, the monkey stole the show. I love monkeys!

Keith Richards was hilarious - BEST part of the movie... we laughed out loud when he came on and none of the kids (and there were a LOT at my showing) had any idea who he was - lol

The monkey was great. To be honest, I had a difficult time understanding what half the characters even said... shrug ... maybe it was margarita dinner I'd had before lol

Not very good. I liked the first half, though. It was too long and confusing. Hard to make out the dialogue. Not enough Jack Sparrow. But the monkey was great--though monkeys always are, aren't they?

I enjoyed the movie.

The first movie did the best job of twisting the story lines and coming out great in the end.

The third movie didn't twist the story lines...it frappe'ed them. They came together overall at the end, but the good in the characters didn't shine through like it did in the first movie.

Now I feel sad when I hear this song. The movie hooked me, IMO an ideal fantasy movie. I guess it helps going to a drive-in where you have control over the volume, I think it would have been very distracting from the overall storyline if we'd of been boombarded (or rather assaulted) with extremely loud special effects.
