Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007)

Saw this lovely film opening night while wearing my Pirates of the Caribbean shirt, Thursday May 24, 2007. For reasons which I will delve into, I suppose I'd have to say I did not like it as much as the first two. But it's still a must-see for any Pirates fan!

Spoiler Alert

There seemed to be too much going on for one film, for example, the Calypso and Davy Jones story, which I feel wasn't adequately addressed and wasn't that necessary. There was a LOT of loyalty-switching, for reasons which were at times a bit unclear. Davy Jones' Locker was unexplained in the film. Jack Sparrow's first appearance in the film was not in the usual way... And it was a bit disappointing to not see the other major pirates in any of the fighting scenes after the meeting of the pirates. And of course, the ending was not a complete, final ending. But this could be due to reasons of there perhaps being a 4th Pirates of the Caribbean film! So I sincerely hope there is a 4th, or else I am not satisfied with the ending! The film was humorous, as expected. But I feel Jack Sparrow's character was a bit diluted in this film. But I still love him!

Putting aside the above issues, it was still fun to watch and I still highly recommend it for all Pirates fan! :) I'd give it a 4 out of 5 stars.

The first Pirates of the Caribbean was great in every way, the best part of the other two was the special effects... the question now is, if they come out with a fourth, will it maintain the quality of the first?
