[If this isn't the right section, feel free to move it.]



I just want opinions from people who've seen it.
I think it was horrible. especially comparing it to the previous two.

PotC - The first movie was amazing, it goes through the story giving every detail and has an actual plot and everything. It explains how Elizabeth met Will when they were young and gives you an idea of his past, it shows how close they've become and their secret love for oneanother or whatever. When they team up with Jack to adventure out dealing with those Aztek Gold coins or whatever, it was always entertaining.

PotC2: Dead Man's Chest - It wasn't as great as the first one but still amazing. It shows Elizabeth and Will about to get married and their arrest from helping Jack in the previous movie. There is alot of adventure with Jack tricking will onto the Flying Dutchman and all this stuff happening to save will and Jack, Will is reunited with his father and makes a promise that is nearly impossible, you meet that creepy lady who gave Jack a jar of dirt, and along with the compas from the first movie (which they never explained in movie 1) but once again, always entertaining.

PotC3: At World's End -The movie starts clueless, you cant tell at all what's happening like a whole hidden section happened in the mean time they arn't telling us about. It takes them about 10 minutes of the movie to get to Davey Jones' Locker and the rest of the movie is getting back and fighting etc. When you first see Jack, there are like 300 of him (the movie did not explain this) he licks a rock at some point and throws it, the rocks cracks open and is a crab. Millions of crabs carry the black pearl to the water where he re-unites with all these people. Parts of the movie were funny, but they were VERY dull.
it isn't a movie I reccomend seeing, yet I'll still buy it when it's released on Dvd.

Personally I loved it. Has alot more mythology to it than the other two and bits of it seem quite clever. you talk about the crab scene as though it was the whole movie. the movie tied up alot of loose ends and i think James Norrington's death and Beckitt's death are both very well done. The special effects through out the movie are amazing. I just urge people to remember it is a childrens film so dont be so harsh on it.

I also wasn't paying attention half the movie.


but it still wasn't as good as the other two.

The multiple Jacks was a hallucination. The worst thing that Captain Jack Sparrow could bring upon himself is having to deal with so many of himselves (I really don't know how that can be an actual word.) Also not being able to be on the sea (no wind) and no where to go (not being on sea, haha.) And no rum, obviously...

I like Rum...

I think it could have tied up more (like an actual conclusion to the attraction between Sparrow and Elizabeth Swann.) The marriage proposal was really kind of... corny for some reason...

I enjoyed it for the most part, as a mindless action, "child's" movie (sorry but that leg kissing scene and everything implied from that was SO not part of a child's movie :lol: and hopefully every child's movie will live up to this new standard of content!)

Blame the writers! I think the quality of Sparrow stayed the same thanks to Johnny Depp. But his lines didn't seem as improvised as the first one since the writers started writing Sparrow with Johnny Depp in mind whereas in the first one they probably were thinking of this buff guy. I mean, in the first movie people were thinking that Depp was ruining the movie as they filmed it then the turnout seemed enormous for Depp's version of Sparrow. I don't see how the writer's could not not write the other two movies with Depp in mind after that... I know I would probably, but still try to refrain. You have to write the character as the character not with the actor in mind, you know?
