Kinda strange, really long and complex, but if you're one of those guys who love non-stop, completely intense, in-your-face action; then this is your movie.

Movie was a little bit long. If you can understand what is happening with jack and the others then it's a very good movie. Plenty of room though to make it very hard to follow. Good effects and a little more violent than most disney movies.

As the pirateThis third installment continues the last adventure of Elizabeth Swann and Will Turner as they, along with the resurrected Barbossa, try to find Jack Sparrow, who got killed in the last movie and is now in the land of the dead. As the pirate ships plan to release the goddess Calypso, Davy Jones's lover, the crew seek the help of Sao Feng and all of the pirate lords and must fight for their final stand against Beckett, Jones, Norrington, the Flying Dutchman and East India Trading Company while also finding Will Turner's father as well.

(sigh) What?! I only missed two of the sequels to a great movie? UGH! Oh, well. Now to get to my opinion. Like the previous movie, it's not as good as the first.

The dialogue was bad (again), The storytelling was rushed (again), and the storyline was very tiresome. That's it for the bad.

The good things are: The actors did very well at their performances, The CGI was even more cooler, The action was way more better, and the cinematography was a lot of fun.

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End may not be one of the best movies of 2007, but like the second installment, it is also a worthy follow up to a great movie with strong performances and fond farewells to Orlando Bloom and Kiera Knightley.

7/10

The plot is ridiculously confusing and Keira Knightely has to do the same thing about four times. It's a shame because she's really hot. Good movie but definitely not as good as the first two. Expand

A funny and good film. Daring for a Disney film, as it starts with a hanging scene and has a totally-white Captain Jack Sparrow scene -- not often seen in a mainstream Hollywood production.

I am not confused about the plot, but I am befuddled by all the negative reviews. I will say this: do yourself a favor and watch the last 15 minutes of Pirates I and all of Pirates II before you see this one. You will find that the plot is I am not confused about the plot, but I am befuddled by all the negative reviews. I will say this: do yourself a favor and watch the last 15 minutes of Pirates I and all of Pirates II before you see this one. You will find that the plot is actually not that confusing, it's just that most of us have a hard time remembering what happened the last time around if it's been almost a year. If you can follow the plot, just hang on and enjoy the ride. This movie is a return to true-swashbuckling form with everything one would want in a Pirates' movie. The last one got a little too dark for my taste. This is a *MILD SPOILER* but you should know that they unceremoniously dump the Kraken. You should know that going in, so you won't be too disappointed when it happens... er, more like doesn't happen. There is great atmosphere, some jaw-dropping scenes, spectacular battles, and quite a few funny moments, but again.... Review the movies before you watch!!! If you are scratching your head over the plot, you will miss out on the ride! (I think this is why people have had such negative reactions... they can't follow the movie, therefore they can't fully commit to the ride that Pirates takes you on. If you can't commit to a logical story, it's so much harder to suspend your disbelief, then the acting seems off and the action scenes seem pointless) This movie, indeed the whole series, is about enjoying a ride, much like at a theme park. This is a much more satisfying, enjoyable, and well-crafted third chapter to a series than say Spider-Man 3. Expand

The entire cast gets a big gold star from me, as well as a hefty libation of rum. The mythological elements, storyline, action, and effects were outstanding. I love the great imagination and soulfulness at the heart in these films, especially AWE. The major theme of the Pirates trilogy, to me, is about choices and their costs, how those choices effect everyone and their relationships, and in the chaos that ensues, leads the various characters to great accomplishments, crushing failures, and unexpected ends. This movie is also about redemption and the power of love. Nearly every major character got the chance to redeem themselves for their past shenanigans in some way by the end of the film. I found that pretty uplifting, and I left the theatre with a smile on my face. I found myself greatly entertained and the screen time didn't feel like 168 minutes. Maybe I am not as jaded and ADD afflicted as the critics who seem to be trashing this movie. Oh, well. To each their own. Cheers! Expand

I'm content This was a spectacular finish to a beloved franchise. Many critics have complained about the length, storyline, and well other things, but the only thing I found mildly annoying was sometimes you couldn't hear them. I'm content about the length, I wanted a good long movie and that's what I got, you got an indulging storyline that you could chew over later and best of all. . . More Cap'n Jack Sparrow, what more could you want I ask. Critics are expecting this and that and then when they don't get exactly what they wanted they pull out a totally negative feedback to one of the best movies of the year, other examples to that claim would be Spider-Man 3, Shrek 3. Both are great movies and some critics just constantly need something to bash. So go enjoy more Pirates. Expand

I can't speak for all, but to me, this movie was the very definition of why I love Summer films. It was so captivating and interesting that I didn't even noticed where the two hours and forty sevn minutes went.....just a brilliant action flick. But again, be warned: if you ever got irritated at a David Lynch film, or you think Dungeons & Dragons is for weirdo nerds, then you are probably not going to get this movie and might want to just go catch the latest Adam Sandler crud instead.

Unlike most of the world, I never really fell in love with these Pirates movies. They are each really fun and excellent-looking movies with great acting, but beyond that, I never really understood why this has become one of the biggest franchises of all time. That said, though, I had fun watching At World's End, just like I had fun watching the last 2 Pirates movies. At World's End is almost impossible to follow, it's extremely long, it lacks a strong, memorable new villain (they're just going after the humans? Boring...) and much of the action is saved until the end. But still...I had fun. Johnny Depp is better than ever as Captain Jack Sparrow, Geoffrey Rush is awesome as Barbarosa, and Kiera Knightly kicks ass in this installment, too. This is easily the best-looking movie I've ever seen, with some amazing cinematography and some great directing. Gore Verbinski knows how to make a movie epic. The music is also the best in the series as well. If you liked the past 2 Pirates movies, (more specifically, if you liked the 2nd one) you should enjoy this. Just make sure you watch the 2nd movie before seeing this one, as this movie makes no effort whatsoever to catch you up. Expand

Is that too much to ask of these reviewers? God forbid a movie should have a plot that requires more than four sentences to sum up. Other than that, the final battle delivers the greatest thrills. The special effects are still awesome, and the characters are still the same characters we got to know from the last movie.

I think the big problem is that most of the people who come to see this movie only want flashy special effects and humor (well... they got their dose of it for the last part of the movie, minus the humor). No one really cares about the Pirates's intriguing and original story line. Overall, for the first 2 hrs and 15 mins, this movie was just as good as the original Pirates movie. All the cleverness, character plots, and humor were all done to perfection with no trace of cheesiness anywhere! I was pleasantly surprised to see that Jack Sparrow was just as funny in this film as the first, because in the second he failed to make me laugh once. I'm sad to hear that people complain about movies being three hours long, and when they can't follow a plot, they say it's too confusing or nothing is going on, but then when the action kicks in, everything turns around and all is right in the world. Once Callipso comes towards the end, you'll probably find me hanging my head in disgust for the remainder of the movie. At this moment, everything you find bad about the second installment reappears its ugly head and everything turns stupid. I'm extremely happy though, because the first 80% of this movie was a 10 for me... but then it turned into a 0... *works the calculator* Overall that's an 8. Expand

This movie was amazing! It is a great finish to the pirates trilogy. It was hilarious and action packed. Johnny Depp did an incredible job as Captain Jack Sparrow. At World's End is definitely a must-see.

Contrary to popular opinion here, the movie does have a plot, however, the plot is a supporting character to what has becom the "chronicles of Jack, Will, Elizabeth and Hector." As for the twists, anyone with about an ounce of intelligence that can hold their attention for more than a few seconds can easily follow them, and the they keep the movie unpredictable and entertaining. Unlike the second movie, this one has great humor again. Also, I found that the 168 minute run time ran by very fast. Extremely so the first time I saw it, with friends on Thursday, and still fast the second time I saw it, on Sunday with my Wife. For wht it's worth, I think its a great movie! Sit back, relax, don't take it too seriously and make your own decision... Expand

I was dissapointed with the third film and how depressing it was for the characters, but "At World's End" brought the idea back that no matter how hard it was getting for the characters they were still able to make light of the situation. Nothing can beat the first film, because of the enjoyable shock first received from meeting such memorable characters. So if you can handle a little thinking while taking in breath taking graphics and hysterical encounters, and enjoyed the first film then you'll have a ball. If you didn't like the first film, or barely enjoyed the second, of course you won't enjoy the third, but come prepared to be entertained and still think, or you'll get side swiped with information.

The sporadic storytelling will leave you befuddled and has no logical beginning or end and many end up being random tangents that could possibly bring ADD upon its entire audience. But the symbolism, cinematography, special effects, and hallmark character traits make it quite a copasetic conclusion to an enjoyable franchise, even though the ending does end up Disneyfied. It's a lovely little mess of a movie. Be warned though: Sparrow's closing line was much better in the context of the first film. Hell, even out of context it was better. Enjoy! Expand

The lone exception might be Revenge of the Sith, but only because Clones was two-and-a-half of some of the most embarrassing hours in cinematic history. However, Pirates 3 gives you exactly what you need. The action and effects are spectacular and the story is methodic and ends right where it should. Sure, it all might be confusing for the "weak-minded" children whose parents will ignore the PG-13 rating, but the story does make sense. And yes, it's long and there are moments where they try too hard for laughs. And yes, Jack takes a back seat (USA Today, who gives no concrete evidence for the verbose, negative remarks). And no, it will not be a surprise hit. Why not? Come on, it's the third time around. But I liked it. Expand
