Really good conclusion to the trilogy. The actors and everyone behind the scenes did a really good job.

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

Jared, yes we were watching the same movie. Perhaps you are a very forgiving person or checked your brains in at the door. Pirates was a fantastic idea when it started and captivated all of us. However, the second movie was not really good Jared, yes we were watching the same movie. Perhaps you are a very forgiving person or checked your brains in at the door. Pirates was a fantastic idea when it started and captivated all of us. However, the second movie was not really good and this third sequel, well, the less said the better. Yes, they spent a fortune on special effects but without a storyline to go with them after awhile the audience realizes that the flick has become ridiculous without any feeling as no matter what no one dies or for that matter does any of the proceedings make any sense. That said, if you think this was a perfect movie deserving of a perfect score, then my score has to be a big fat goosegg to warn the unsuspecting public of how truly awful this movie really is.

-The movie was entertaining, but like its predecessor, it wasn't very focused. I thought Black Pearl was a good movie for pure entertainment value: funny, clever, some nice action sequences and cinematography, with an actual plot-line. -The movie was entertaining, but like its predecessor, it wasn't very focused. I thought Black Pearl was a good movie for pure entertainment value: funny, clever, some nice action sequences and cinematography, with an actual plot-line. Dead Man's Chest was absolutely pointless: there were about three things that happened: Will meets Dad, audience meets Davie Jones and Calypso, and Jack dies. That's all that really happened in the movie. It also lacked focus and there was no framework holding everything together giving the reader a sense of purpose the movie was heading towards. -At World's End is far better than the second, but still a mediocre movie. The jokes were pretty immature, but it was funny at times. There's some awesome cinematography (like Jack in Davie Jone's locker) as well as the ending fight between Jack and Davie Jones on the ship, and some parts were quite clever. It started off so promising with the whole pirate's song (but then this is COMPLETELY forgotten about later) but then followed the path of Dead Man's Chest. The music, however, was great as always. -There was so much potential in this movie: at first I thought it would be about pirates being hunted down and having to form one last alliance to stand up against the British Armada (like the trailers promised). The whole concept of the pirate kings was very intriguing and clever. But all this potential was wasted since the movie wasn't about the pirates banding together, but focused on the love story between Calypso and Davie Jones, and Will and Elizabeth. Does anyone remember any other pirate ships fighting at the end besides the Black Pearl? Nope: they didn't show any of the other pirates lords against the British Armada during the final fight, which would have just been stunning and what I was most looking forward to from the trailers. -Ah well, wasted potential. Decent movie; SO MUCH BETTER than the second, but no where as good as the first. Just to reiterate: the second one sucked! Expand

Well, Johnny depp continues to make a great work, alongside Geoffrey Rush witch actually provides itself the best thing in the whole movie. But Keira and Bloom ruined everything, they both gave razzie-worth performances, it's just embarrasing to watch. Also, the comedy that worked in the first two is quite missing here, and when it appears it's unecessary. The ending was quite nice, cliché but cool. If the rest of the movie had helped... Expand

Jedi, Godfather 3, Spiderman 3, Matrix Revolutions, X3, and the list goes on. I don't care if Return of the King was the one that won the Oscar - obviously a collective achievement. 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

Only one character was all evil and the others actually had range. With 9 pirates, Davy Jones, Tia Dalma, Admiral Beckett, Wil Turner, and Elizabeth Swan all working for themselves, it is both unwise and unnecessary to attempt to keep track of who is friends/enemies/allies of who or what their plans are. Those who try are missing the whole point. It 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

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.

All complaints I've read are completely unfounded; this movie has finally proved that it can be 100% action-packed and STILL be amazing. Unlike Spiderman3 -which was good but a bit of a mess-PotC3 successfully packed the movie full of subplots. There was not ONE part that needed to be omitted. 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! Another place I see a lot of criticism about the plot was that the marriage scene. 'Ohhh it was SOO cheesy...etc' This is simply not the case. It was the most romantic/adorable/sweet part in a movie that I have EVER SEEN. Honestly. I DARE you to find another trilogy out there that has had each movie be just as good as the other. These movies are absolutely epic, and will become classics. The accuracy of the 1st movie with the ride is great, it even inspired Disney to return the favor by adding Sparrow and Barbossa into the ride. Oh and the soundtrack is simply gorgeous. Brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to At Wits End, I See Dead People In Boats, and One Day. Ive heard the game is fantastic as well, although I have yet to play it. I just cannot say it enough: There will NEVER be another series of movies that is so incredible in EVERY SINGLE ASPECT. Expand

I do not have the qualifications necessary to constructively critique film art. The incredible number of 'man hours' required by cast and crew, often in very soggy conditions should be commended. A movie they should be proud of and one I will go see a few more times in the theater. Every ticket I buy is a "Yes" vote and that is a responsibility I do take seriously. So, YES to numbers 1,2 and 3 and I would most certainly welcome #4 if it came to be. Expand

Three hour movie, too long and complicated for children to digest, thus polarizing the reviewer scores into binary values of 0,1, and 10. Worst of the Pirate movies? MAYBE. But all the feeble-minded children giving this 2 or less have forced people who actually WATCHED the first two movies to make our final stand. They're PIRATES. They are out for Number 1 and no one else. Unifying the 9 biggest of them all under one banner takes balls the size of coconuts unless you're a woman. DMC touched on this, AWE drives it home. Critics purportedly loved the surrealist desert while bashing on wooden acting jobs, Will being the main accuse. Will cannot be another sweet Jack Sparrow- he's the honest hero in a den of thieves and beggars who, by the end of DMC was burned one time too many. A few things keep this finale out of classic territory. Keith Richards as Jack's father is a wasted opportunity for some Jack backstory, at a rare time where Jack can hallucinate just about anything the directors wanted him to. Why is Jack the way he is? What's their relationship? Same goes for poor Sao Feng, reduced to third-tier villain status, 'yellow-peril'ishly groping his 'Calypso' before his ignominious demise. All the old faces from the first movie retain interest, with an ending that puts all but a few lingering threads to rest. If you came in looking for The Godfather on the high seas, look again. Watch them in order or you'll make a pig's breakfast of the whole thing. Expand

What is wrong with all you people who think these movies are so great? Seriously, comparing them to the Lord of the Rings trilogy? There is no comparison whatsoever. The LOTR movies are beautifully directed works of art -- the Pirate movies (especially the last two) are completely overburdened wastes of time. Ten minutes into it and I was already regretting getting trapped into seeing another one of these incredible wastes of time. So there. Expand

At World's End makes this even more difficult by adding in a few extra story lines for good measure. The result is a jumbled film that tackles far too much, even with a particularly long running time. Because of the focus on tying up the loose ends of the story, not nearly enough time is dedicated to characters and important events. The main quest (to rescue Jack) is done and dusted in less than an hour and undermines the impact of the cliffhanger ending of DMC. Norrington, Chow Yun-Fat's Sao Feng and even the Kraken are all pushed to the side and play minor roles. This is disappointing as Norrington and the Kraken were of much greater importance to proceedings in DMC and Sao Feng was an interesting new edition. More troubling is the chance in the character of Will Turner who begins the movie as a sneering, almost villainous character but n the end returns to his usual self. This strange shift is clearly done for the benefit of the story but prompts the audience to dislike Will, a usually likable and morally upright character. The action scenes, though entertaining, drag on and quickly outstay their welcome. Though it wasn't terrible, I enjoyed the previous two films more; the first for its originality and the second for its dense but clear story. Both seem to be lacking in this movie. Expand

The first one is great, definitely a better movie, but I find this one to be more entertaining as a whole. I love the pirate mythology, of course it doesn't make sense, it's not meant to. With zany adventures like this it's a lot more fun to ignore the plotholes and enjoy the spectacle of ships battling in the middle of giant whirlpool and of course Johnny Depp being weird. I feel like this movie got Captain Jack the best, rather than just relying of the jokes, they let his natural acting talent and odd behavior do all the comedy for him. The scene with him in Davy Jones Locker is possibly the best scene with Jack yet, just because we get an interesting insight into his personal hell. All in all it's a stonking great action romp with epic pirate action this movie is more than adequate and it makes for a fantastic ending to the original trilogy of films. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I liked the second movie pretty much but this one was not as good as first 2 movies. Surely it was pretty much fun and excitement during the whole movie, watching all that iconized characters brawl in an epic fight. But there is absolutely no meaning in some parts of the story. You will never guess what will happen if character x do one thing in a scene. Only the thing which the scripter wanted to happen happens, it doesn't have to make sense nor be logically accurate. Of course i never asked this movie to %100 realistic but sometimes even movie itself breaks its own rules. For example check some of main characters: Jack Sparrow, Will Turner and Captain Barbossa. All of these three have died at some point in these movies but actually always find a way to revive one dead guy. My advice is, if you want to bring all those dead people back to life, please don't do it three times. Even though i should say i enjoyed this one and whoever is to say he didn't is probably lying. So i give an 8 for this one. Expand

There is a lot going on in the third instalment of this hugely successful franchise, and the final one of the continuing story from the the second entry. While still not capturing or even replicating the original, but it is mountains betterThere is a lot going on in the third instalment of this hugely successful franchise, and the final one of the continuing story from the the second entry. While still not capturing or even replicating the original, but it is mountains better than the Dead Man's Chest, and while you can't really miss a single minute for fear completely losing your place in this often puzzling and densely populated film, it is still very long, much longer than it should have been.
There is a lot to keep up with but after the climax of the original film, a crew sets out to rescue Jack from Davy Jones Locker, a place of nothing, to be punished, as expanded cast member Tia Dalma (Naomi Harris) outlines. But also afoot is the attempt to call the Brethren court, a pirate organisation made of all pirate lords to bring about the end of the East India Trading Company's rain of terror across the seas, led by their new pet Davy Jones (Bill Nighy), whose heart is owned by said company, hence his actions.
Captain Jack, meanwhile, mentally rots away as he wonders exactly where he is and if the things going on around him are truly real, his comical and whimsical attitude is again excellently performed through Johnny Depp, his character has indeed stood the test of the three films, and he is the most enjoyable thing to look forward to in this.
With that thought, there is again a lot of pointless and time-consuming elements of the film that contribute little to the cause, and with the continuing mutiny and rebellious nature of both Elizabeth Swan and Will Turner make it difficult give any sort of sympathy towards them. Their heightening love story within the film is distracting and too much emphasis is placed upon it, deterring from the more enjoyable aspects.
It is Jack and the returning Geoffrey Rush as Captain Barbosa that truly maintain the flashes of greatness from the original, Jack and his long conversations with himself, or Barbosa and his typical pirate nature, mix that in with a plot that although complex, does give the incentive to watch over again.
As visuals go, this is a true spectacle in front of you, beautiful, marvellous and a delight to the eyes, the final battle in particular is breathtaking, ships, pirates and storms galore. Effects an marvels don't get much bigger than this, combined with an impressive score.
Not as captivating as the original, quite lengthy with many unnecessary moments and the same goes for characters, but certainly better than the second with an impressive finale, epic set pieces characters staying true to their roots and continuing powerful performances from Depp, Rush and Nighy, oh and a cameo from a particular Rolling Stone, make this quite a worthwhile and explosive third showing.

It suffers from all the problems of the first and second, and then some. Much of the appeal of the first two are gone, and what remains is a confusing, boring, and unfunny second sequel. Problems abound from everywhere, so I'll be working hard to narrow it down. For one, Johnny Depp's role as Jack Sparrow is once again shrunken into a smaller part. Also there is absolutely no action that is even vaguely interesting (after the first half hour). In fact, the last hour is at least 45 minutes action, and it's surprisingly dull. In fact, it's tedious. It's just people killing each other, and nothing interesting about it. There's no variety, no interesting atmosphere. Just swords clashing. There is a plot, which is more than what can be said for the second, but it's so confusing, with so many characters and sub plots and deceptions and people changing sides, that it's almost completely incomprehensible. Most of the characters are obnoxious, and though that was apparent in the first two, it is even more so now. There are too many flat gags, too many boring scenes, and too many characters for the film to flow well. There were times when I wondered what the purpose was for really anything going on during the movie. There are some good things though. The first half hour is strong, just like the first two flicks, but after that, the movie is drop dead boring. The score is another winner from composer Hanz Zimmer, albeit a tad familiar. The acting is dependable, and even admist a thousand bad jokes, there's at least a few laughs (or chuckles really). There is one bizzare scene where godess of the sea, Calypso is turned back into her original form. This scene is so weird, stupid, and nonsensical, it's hard not to burst out laughing (I most certainly did). Let's just say that she grows about 1,000 feet high, talks like she has really bad congestion, looks like she's constipated, and eventually explodes into a million crabs. It's even more ridiculous on screen. When the film closes, you will either be waiiting in great anticipation for the fourth (if you enjoyed it), or you'll be fast asleep or about ready to be (if you're me). Expand

It can make for aWith a near 3 hour runtime, At World's End often feels more of a chore to finish than anything else due to poor editing, inconsistent pacing and a muddled main plot that tries to wrap up the half dozen side plots going on. It can make for a rough watch at times because the moments where the film is actually good is too few and in-between.

It takes a little over 40 minutes to be introduced to Jack again and Davy Jones is painfully absent in the first 2/3 of the film. Considering Depp is the star and Jones is the built-up main villain, maybe introduced them both earlier? You can do that by editing down that overly long introduction for starters. You could also edit down parts with Sao Feng and his crew considering they have pretty much no relevance to the film past the halfway mark. I think trimming the run time at least 25-30 minutes, which is incredibly manageable, would have fixed most of the pacing issues and make it so it doesn't seem like we go a bulk of the runtime without seeing the stars of the film.

All in all, At World's End isn't bad but it is disappointing. There was simply too much going on and it felt like there was no time to really let things settle before we immediately go to the next thing.

The huge final battle is excellent, and the film's final third in general is its strongest, but it fails to live up to the first film, even if it beats out the second. Expand

Bigger better than the second one. Favorite scene of the film was the opening when pirates are being hanged including a young boy who's gonna to hanged and then started to sing the song and then rest of the pirates started sing, very emotional.

Elizabeth gaining influence was too lucky for me to be plausible. Beckett, however, hits the mark again. I expected more of Norrington after watching him develop in the course of the previous film. The movie failed to pit the pirates against the navy after introducing us to the Brethren Court, which was disappointing. It was rarely fun and melodramatic. The ending was botched. I wouldn't mind an anticlimactic ending if it is done well. The movie as a whole was a lost opportunity in my view. They could have gone out in style. Expand

An improvement on the second movie, but still not as good as the first one.

Knightly has perhaps the most interesting character as she really has changed allot since the first movie. I really did like seeing that development. Bloom is boring and very hard to sympathize with, aside from the end where he does grow a little. Depp is just doing yet another fantastic Jack Sparrow.

Overall: At World's End was good. It had allot of flaws but most were forgivable. An Epic finish to this chapter of the PotC franchise.
