Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End

[ChimpBoy]

I've just been & watched it with the gf, it's not as bad as most the reviews i'd read try to make it out, better than the 2nd, not as good as the 1st & yea a bit waffly at times in the middle.
 
Not every film you watch is gonna be an oscar winning masterpiece, its a few hours of entertainment, & thats about it.

I wouldn't ever bother to listen to a critics reviews where it concerns a movie like this, or Spiderman 3, or Transformers - where it concerns large sequels or blatant hollywood blockbusters your best bet is to listen to your mates or watch it yourself.  The amount of times I've read a review of POTC3 and the reviewer has said "it's confusing" just makes me weep - what on earth is there to get confused about with this?  It's not exactly Memento is it :g:

I agree entirely. You can never go wrong with a comedy monkey...

That is what the industry says as well...

ORLY? I didn't see the scene after the credits >_<.

 And Et said he enjoyed it after we watched it (Him, 1 other and myself).

 Personally I loved it, and Johnny Depp was brilliant. And it isn't that hard to figure out the plot >_<. First 2 posts where a bit harsh, tbh.

You twit (Even though it may have seemed that way) I didn't say I didn't enjoy it, just that it could have been a lot better, lots of films are like this.. But oh well.. ( is it okay if I refer to u as twit from now on? :S, I would very much enjoy it, hehehe. And only I (Me <<< can call him that? Please? yay....! I've gotta stop talking to myself...)

No, I didn't stay for the credits, and no-one else did either, although, listening to a film critic for half an hour an not getting deteard, I must get points for that! (Sounds a bit like deturded - has the same meaning as depoo. 0_o)

Amen, films don't have to be cerebral masterpieces. None of the Pirates films were thinky films. However the film makers seem to have worked along the lines of....

"We cannot loose with this. We're going to make a bajillion pounds no matter what we produce. So what's our incentive for writing a sharp clever script, adding some new interesting plot twists and  a smattering of well conceived original characters?"

"Err no idea but it sounds like hard work."

"You're right. Cinema audiences are basically mindless sheep who will chow down on any banal crap we feed them, so lets just do the shite version and take the rest of the week off?"

"Genius!"

Well i finaly managed to watch it (after marduk having bought the dvd ages ago), and it wasnt too bad, allthough i would have expected another ending. Entertaining, but nowhere near as good as the first one. I think they shoulda just made the first movie. :sideways:

But think of the profit they would have flushed away if they had not made film 2 and 3. The last film wasn't as bad as some people/critics said it was. It did suffer from the 'too many bad guys' problem that sank Spiderman 3 and messed up the Batman franchise completely. And Ikea Knightley's role was so obviously bigged up by her agent it was painful. The whole Pirate King screamed last minute re-write. And Keith Richards should not have been let anywhere near the set. That was complete self indulgence by the film makers. However the film was still a laugh and I enjoyed it's silliness, plus Depp had some killer lines.

Lord Cutler Beckett: You're mad.  
 Jack Sparrow: Thank goodness for that, 'cause if I wasn't this would probably never work.
