Aside from being the best movie to come out this year, this iteration of the Pirates series is easily the best of them all. It answers and closes every storyline, and does so in an amazing fashion.

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, the comedy came more naturally than the second film, it pumped up the action, which is always necessary in a sequel, it pointed each of the characters in new directions, ostly because no one trusts anyone I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, the comedy came more naturally than the second film, it pumped up the action, which is always necessary in a sequel, it pointed each of the characters in new directions, ostly because no one trusts anyone anymore, and there actually plots twists with enough story background and kick backs to the precious movies to find something new atleast the first three times you see it, meaning rewatch value. 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.… Expand

As soon as I'd figured it out, it changed. The movie was an utter waste of time except for two things: 1) the scene where Jack is in some nether-world and the rocks turn into crabs who carry the ship to the water is like a scene from another, psychedelic film. I wanted to get stoned to watch that scene. It was totally out of place, and totally fun - the special effects were well used. 2) It's always amusing, as a gay man, to see that Disney's many gay writers are still having fun making penis jokes. Like at the end when Jack tells the girls "it really does look larger close up" and each girl saying how she "wanted to go for a ride" first....plus the bit with Jack having a small, flaccid telescope... again completely out of place but they are the only 2 things I found amusing!… Expand

That's the "strategy" employed by such suicidal sequels as Speed 2: Cruise Control (in which Keanu Reeves is nowhere to be found, Sandra Bullock's character devolves from lovably quirky to intensely irritating, and the villain was once again an employee who was genuinely cheated by his bosses, making both Speed movies perfect porno for Al Dunlap and Jack Welch). So why are Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End producer Jerry Bruckheimer, director Gore Verbinski and writers Terry Elliott and Ted Russio stealing from the Speed 2 playbook? Do they really believe in their collective heart of hearts that what the millions and millions of moviegoers who made POTC1 a surprise smash in 2003 and POTC2 last year's Number One box office hit really wanted was an even longer and more bloated pseudo-epic with more enervatingly Byzantine plotting, lots and LOTS more talk, far less action...and MUCH less Johnny Depp?!? (At one point in POTC3, one of Captain Jack Sparrow's foes asks if Sparrow actually plans his actions--or just makes them up as he goes along. Is the Bruckheimer crew making an arrogant in-joke about themselves?) I'm tired of hearing about how two of this year's best and most original films, David Fincher's Zodiac and Robert Rodriguez/ Quentin Tarantino's Grindhouse, would've been better (and made more money) if their makers had tamed their personal indulgences and trimmed their work a bit when it's bloody obvious that Bruckheimer, Verbinski and gang are 2007's true purveyors of arrogant egomania. How else would you explain their presumptiousness in not only NOT bringing Sparrow back for a full half-hour and then, when doing so, explaining his survival from the teeth and tentacles of POTC2's truly spectacular sea monster, the Kraken (who isn't even seen onscreen here) in a manner that's extremely sloppy and haphazaed by any standards but especially so in a beloved franchise that so many enthusiastic moviegoers have emotionally invested themselves in? Even allowing for the supernatural elements tossed into the mix, to buy into Sparrow's reunion with the rest of the principals, you have to disavow any common-sense knowledge of geography, zoology, weather or just plain elementary school logic. (I recently watched a silly Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan movie, Tarzan's Desert Mystery, in which the Lord of the Apes ftravels on horseback from a desert climate to a jungle one in about 30 seconds of real time. That 1943 "B" movie's stupidity is at least excused by the fact that it WAS a low-budget programmer. Over half a century and with innumerable times the money involved, there is simply no excuse for the Pirates people to harbor such cavalier disregard for its storytelling OR its audience.) For everything that POTC3 gets right--the production design is, once again, wonderfully detailed, eye-filling and even whimsical; the story arc concerning my favorite supporting character, the unexpectedly complex and conflicted Norrington (Jack Davenport) reaches a fitting if bittersweet end, and the monkey IS irresistable--it gets three times as much wrong, nothing so much as a pirates' council that grinds the movie midway into an even deader halt. (I've been at homeowners' association meetings that were far livelier and more rich in genuine entertainment value, even WITHOUT surprise guest appearances by legendary rock gods.) Not much less miscalculated are the moviemakers' gratuitous and unnecessary stabs, so to speak, at social commentary involving Guatanamo Bay and the USA Patriot Act, culminating in the (implied) hanging of a young boy that makes this movie truly inappropriate for children, even with its PG-13 rating. (It IS notable from a historical and cultural context that the British Navy is depicted in this aggressively mainstream movie with the same attitude with which the U.S. Cavalry was treated in such revisionist, Vietnam-era westerns as Soldier Blue and Little Big Man.) Even the wildly elaborate, storm-swept climactic sea battle doesn't have a patch on the funny, Indiana Jones-esque bits, such as the three man water-wheel swordfight and the shish-kabob drop, that punctuated the otherwise uneven POTC2. But hey, by the time we're edging toward Hour Three (which seems like Hour Five), at least the big finale is highly welcome (to say nothing of highly overdue)...especially when it caps off a movie that forces its audience to walk a seemingly neverending plank.… Expand

The Davy Jones character has two or three scenes that are very emotional (one in particular when he sheds a tear) and Geoffrey Rush is very good... HOWEVER, the lame and just terrible and tasteless humor transformed potentially outstanding characters into buffoons. I loved Rush playing Barbossa, he is just brilliant, but the "jokes" that he had to say completely killed the nature of his character. Same thing with Davy Jones, he should be scary and intimidating, I loved that character! And what with the pirate with the squeaky voice? Is one laugh worth sacrificing the image of all the pirates? Depp good, but totally eclipsed by Rush. Bloom goes practically unnoticed, Knightley fails awfully to deliver the emotion that her character needs (her most important speech to the pirates is immaterial, plain, fake and weak). And the mind twisting storyline gets you all confused, which has the effect of not letting you connect with any of the characters. Bottom line: lacks emotion, good acting wasted on lame and uncreative lines, lousy humor strips pirates of their inherent style turning them into clowns, un-engaging storyline.

Many people claim that the Calypso part wasn't necessary. This is utter nonsense. It was completely necessary to the plot. It explained how Davy Jones got to be the way he did. How isn't that relevant? Plus it was a great way to tie Tia Dalma into the plot here. I loved Sparrow&Barbossa's little ego trips, absolutely brilliant!

First off Knightley's character is so laughingly dumb that I was cringing whenever she spoke. They try to make her into this tough pirate all of a sudden out of no where. (she was much better as the damsel in distress). In the beginning when she walks into the room of Singapore pirates and opens her jacket to reveal about 8 guns (including one huge gun that could never be hidden like that) was so cliched and stupid. Then I was laughing from the stupidity when the annoying calypso woman turns into a huge giant, then into 1000 crabs, then does nothing but create a whirlpool. Then it ends with probably the corniest scene I have ever seen in a movie, where Knightley and Will get married while fighting off bad guys on a ship that's in a whirlpool and practically on its side. Even Johnny Depp's character wasn't as charming and cool as in the first two movies. This was a waste of time and one of the most laugh out loud stupid/corny movies I have ever seen. You should be ashamed of yourself if you are over 13 and gave this movie a 9-10… Expand

Bereft of any cinematic talent on (and off) the screen, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End is the first film of the year - sorry Spidey - to truly blow. Picking off where it last left, the main synthetic narrative follows off where the last film left off: now, our heroes are in Signapore visiting Captain Sao Feng (Chow-Yun Fat), the pirate captain in the city itself. The next thing you know, they're off to save Jack, who, previously on the awful Pirates II, gets himself locked up in Davy Jones's Locker. From there, the narrative goes kabut; at one point, you could even say there is no such plot, just people fighting and smiling at each other. Once it reaches earth again, we find ourselves at the Brethren Court, made up of the nine pirate lords, two of whom are Sparrow (Johnny Depp) and Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush). Not only is it imbecilic, it's racist: watch as all of the Asians are the first ones whom are dead, as well as the screaming Japanese pirate queen, and the stuffy French pirate fop; then they start fighting. But anyway, eventually, Elizabeth Swann, played by the ludicrous Keira Knightley, gets elected to be the captain. Against whom, you ask? It's Davy Jones's (Bil Nighy) men allied with the British. Then there is a huge fight scene; then another one; then another one; then it's over!… Expand

Enormous budget is spent on some of the most lavish and jawdropping special effects and art/set direction I have ever seen. It's very long and very plot heavy, even more so than the first two, but I was never bored. In fact, I was entertained for nearly three hours. Not bad! Kudos to the writers and director for having lofty ambitions and meeting a good many of them. While the extravagant razzle dazzle effects are nearly overwhelming, the convoluted plotting maintains a sense that there is a story underneath it all. Uh, but maybe it's only a sense and nothing more. Whatever the final verdict, I'd recommend it anyway!… Expand

I do not get this movie at all. The story does not actually appear to have a storyline, it's more a collection of random pirate related rubbish. I have no idea what was happening in the film, there was no explanation, just random scenes put together of boats going over the edge of the world, sea monsters, english people and a woman who at one point turns into a giant and then turns into a mass of crabs and then disappears. I have no idea what that was about. There were so many completely random, wacky moments. But it wasn't exciting wacky or funny wacky, it was just awful wacky. There were parts were the film tried to be funny, but it was just too stupid. The story didn't make one bit sense. The music was good in parts, but it would have been better if I had a clue as to what was happening or what the triumphant music was for or why the ship was made from living skeletons and why Jack Sparrow had mini Jack Sparrows on each of his shoulders talking to him. I really, really wanted to sleep in parts of this film. I was glad to get out and go to the toilet. There were some crazy almost exciting action scenes and fights, but the majority of the film involved characters talking and squabbling about completely random, nonsensical things. What the hell were the pieces of eight for? Even if I was told I'd get £5 free to go see it again, I would definitely say no. I couldn't bare it. I was dying to take out my phone and play Solitaire or something whilst watching.… Expand

You don't build any affection to any of the characters. Sure, the film has it's moments, but not nearly enough to make it worthwhile spending your cash on.

They're all connected in some way, but difficult to unravel and make any sense of the mess. The special effects in the final fight sequence are impressive, but this accounts for a very small portion of a very long running movie. P3 is, after all, a story to be enjoyed by both the young as well as the old - so a clearer storyline, more action, and definitely more wit and humor in the sauce would have made this dish much more palatable. I'd give it a 5 if it were shorter, but given it took up 168 minutes of my time, I'm taking it down a notch.… Expand

Unlike most of the world, I never really fell in love with these Pirates movies.

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

The worst error was the pacing - long unmoving conversations that failed to draw you into the story, followed by action sequences that built up too quickly to a fever pitch and stayed there forever, a steady stream of exaggerated feats and narrow escapes, one after the other, over and over and over - the result; a solid wall of audio and video noise that quickly became boring.… Expand

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.
