Pros: Visuals, visuals, visuals, appropriately questionable pirate morality
Cons: Sequelitis, plot convolution, the whole thing is getting tired
Summary: Ah, the summer blockbuster. Not usually big on brains, but almost always packed with action; these are the movies we munch popcorn with while we pretend that summer still means something now that we’re not kids anymore. Pure escapism. Tossing in a ... read more

Pros: The series still has some moments of interest
Cons: Unfortunately, the series takes a turn for the serious
Summary: The time has come for Jack Sparrow to be rescued from Davy Jones's Locker. Times have become hard for pirates and pirate sympathizers in Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World's End. Lord Beckett (Tom Hollander), the British naval commander who leads ... read more

Pros: better than the second film, with great battles
Cons: nearly three hours long, convoluted, numbed my butt and nearly dozed me off
Summary: I don't know why it has taken me so long to write this review, except that Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End is one of those big-budget blockbusters that simply never ends. Clocking in at nearly three hours, it is a long, long film, complete with ... read more

Pros: Action packed
Cons: Complex plot, too grim/dark for the family, leaves you hanging too much
Summary: Before taking my 11 year old son to this movie, I went with a friend first. I'm sure glad I did. This was the darkest of the three movies -- the movie actually begins with a young boy getting hung. While the whole Calypso plot was pretty ... read more

Pros: action, adventure, excitement.
Cons: it's over!
Summary: ?The Background? This is the highly anticipated third film in the Pirates of the Caribbean series which has caused a lot of excitement. After the release of the first movie 'The Curse of the Black Pearl' everyone thought it was a great film but ... read more

Pros: Action, same great actors, it ain't Shakespeare
Cons: It ain't Shakespeare
Summary: Yeah yeah, you can read the critics reviews savaging this movie. They snidely bemoan the lack of plot, the endless battle scenes, the swishing swagger of Johnny Depp. SO WHAT? Who needs a plot. The battle scenes are well staged. And Johnny Depp is... ... read more

Pros: All the actors, specially Orlando, Kiera & Johnny; script, music & visuals
Cons: This marks the end of the current lineup even if there is another later
Summary: Buckle on your rapiers and batten down the hatches for the wildest ride of the series. Of the three highly anticipated third sequel movies to be released in quick succession, this is the one that lives up to all the hype and delivers with flair. More ... read more

Pros: The ending
Cons: Everything
Summary: How do you ruin a perfectly good movie? Make it so unrealistic you throw the movie watcher out of the movie, that’s how. I felt thrown out of the movie after the first half hour of watching this stinky film. The plot was so far fetched, the acting ... read more

Pros: Lots of action, great costumes, sets and scenery
Cons: a bit too long, story line over the top
Summary: Everyone knew that a 3rd installment of "Pirates" was coming out. The first two sold well and the writers left the second movie open ended. I won tickets on the radio to see "At World's End," so I took my family to go see it at the local theater. I ... read more

Pros: acting, humor, cinematics, script, narration, plot
Cons: Nothing at all
Summary: Hmm! I wonder how the movie buffs beat me to it when I was dying to share my thoughts about this 3rd installment of "Pirates Of The Carribbean". I couldn't find the tab on Epinions. And then whoa-- what a rocker!!! 25 reviews. All the more reasons for me ... read more

Pros: Great special effects, fun family entertainment.
Cons: You might have to go more than once before the DVD comes out.
Summary: No matter what anyone says, if you enjoyed Pirates 1 and 2 you're probably going to enjoy this one too. It's quirky, and if the plot is a little hard to follow at times; who cares? The special effects are awesome and, for me, the time flew by. ... read more

Pros: Funny, Same cast we all know and love, Same pirate franchise we all love
Cons: Makes even less sense than the other two films, Slow, many loose ends
Summary: Despite the title, let me say, I enjoyed this movie. I would go see it again. But it has some major flaws. It is extremely hard to follow. My boyfriend got up to go to the restroom at one key part. He came back and I explained what he missed. And he ... read more

Pros: Fun, full of action and excitement.
Cons: Slow in many places, brushed over plots too quickly in others.
Summary: What can I say about Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End that hasn't already been said? My family and I went to see the latest installment in the Pirate's saga this evening and overall it was an enjoyable romp on the high seas. While I was never ... read more

Pros: Pirates and the supernatural!
Cons: Can drag in some scenes
Summary: The most important thing to know about the Pirates of the Caribbean movies before going to see one is they are not popcorn movies, at least not in the common sense of the word. They are great special effects festivals, thats for sure; but they also ... read more

Pros: Johnny Depp is hot..
Cons: Disjointed plot, hard to follow, no depth to characters, totally boring
Summary: It was a toss up between taking the kids to see Pirates of the Caribbean 3, At World’s End, and Shrek 3, and I am sad to say that the former won the toss. After sitting in the theatre for over 3 hours with very little to do but shift ... read more

Pros: funny, fun and full of adventure
Cons: Long, a lot of twist and turns
Summary: I promise I will not reveal anything about the end of the movie. That said, this is a great film, a little long but you really don't notice this. It has a wonderful cast of characters and a great sense of humor. You will laugh you will cry and you ... read more
