I WAS TOO FUCKING LONG!

Man... waaaaay drawn out, not a clear storyling, a lot of mumbling (to the point and so often that you end up not really caring what you missed anyway!). It was a huge disappointment. I'd wait for the video...

2 out of 5 stars. IMO... neutral

Oh, and for those who like to see everything the director wants you to see... stick around after the credits for one last scene.

I think that must be something with the theatres cause like I mentioned before, I saw it at the drive-in where I had no problem hearing any dialogue at the same time wasn't overwelmed with all the special sound effects.

This one's definitely a love it or hate it. I loved it. That said, it wasn't problem free.

-In the second movie it's mentioned that Sparrow and Beckett both left a mark on each other, and it's brought up again in this one. I realize that Beckett's mark could be, and probably is, psychological rather than physical, but we see the brand on Jack's arm, and never have any indication of what mark he left on Cutler Beckett.

-How did the Kraken die?

-Tia Dalma turning out to be the goddess Calypso was a cool idea, but extremely poorly done. She turns into a giant and stirs up the water a bit? That's it?


Things I did like:

-The bittersweet ending. I'm so glad it didn't have a Disney-fied sugary finish.

-Keef's cameo, especially the guitar playing and when Jack asks about his Mum. lol

-Barbossa and Sparrow behaving like an old married couple

-The wedding scene. I wish I could get married on a pirate ship in the middle of a battle

-Jack's hallucinations. "Nobody move! I've dropped me brain!"




As for those who say it's confusing: I'm sorry, but you can't be all that bright. Everything important is sorted out for you.

i felt it was implied that the british navy killed it. either that, or it died like all beached whales do.

but you knew she was Calypso, didn't you?

I thought it was very Disney--the final scene after the credits, I mean.

-Barbossa and Sparrow behaving like an old married couple

giggle true.

-The wedding scene. I wish I could get married on a pirate ship in the middle of a battle

hated that. cheezy.

-Jack's hallucinations. "Nobody move! I've dropped me brain!"

now that's some dirty bilgewater you're throwing at some of us. if you knew the films I was into, the ones I really love, you wouldn't say that. of course, not being able to hear the dialogue properly would have alot to do with that. no?

The first thing that Beckett did to show Davy Jones he had control by means of having his heart was to make Davy Jones kill the Kraken. That was actually in the movie. It's briefly mentioned in dialog then followed up by showing the Kraken washed ashore.
I'm firmly planted in denial

I saw the first one, and LOVED it,the kids and I still watch it, together on occassion. The second one, was ok at best...I bought the DVD have yet to see it more then twice. I took my girls to see the 3rd this saturday...I was disappointed sad I so wanted to love it! It was too hard to follow, hard to understand the characters, I swear I have no idea what that "calypso" ever said.
I did not care for the fact Jack Sparrow did not even appear for the first half hour!! THAT is why I was going, for all of the Jack Sparrow screen time.
I probably will end up buying the 3rd DVD just to complete my collection, but it is not worthy. sad

I saw it a few days ago....too much pirate on pirate action
if you ask me... lol They could easily have cut an hour out
of the film without losing any plot really...

I love Johnny and Orlando as well, but the humor just wasn't there
like the first movie....

And I didn't understand one think Calypso ever said... lol

Well I did... neutral


Okay, I'll admit... wink I did until she grew into that giant thingy then I couldn't understand one word, I just assume it was all somekind of goddess jibberish. confused Oh well, gotta wait for the DVD to get all the deleted scenes and stuff to fill in that blank.

Atleast they saved on make-up for the guy, he did not need anything special to give him the old weathered pirate look.
