![]() ![]() His role was bigger which allowed Geoffrey Rush to shine even more. I was also very pleased to see Geoffrey Rush back as Barbossa. You can't just ever grow tired of Jack Sparrow. He still plays the character as good and fresh as he did for the first time 4 years ago. Really one of the best characters in recent years, all thanks to Johnny Depp, who provide the movie with its biggest laughs and most hilarious absurd moments. But of course the movie still remains the Jack Sparrow-show. Marty, Tia Dalma and even Jack the monkey and Cotton's parrot. No matter how good CGI is these days, you still see that it's CGI. It seems like they tried to overdo things this time and I'm mainly talking about the end battle, when it comes down to its special effects, by putting in some complex shots. So are the special effects, although I feel that the second movie was still better on that. The action sequences are definitely well constructed and at times pure eye candy. In its action moments the movie gets definitely uplifted by its musical score. The movie is also big with its musical score by Hans Zimmer and he actually succeeded in composing a new great theme for the movie. There is just as much action as there is in the first two movies, only difference this time is that the movie is nearly 3 hours long and therefor the movie also has some more talking-sequences and slower moments in it. There is no lack of action as some people claim there is. Now the movie is not as good and entertaining as the first but maybe just slightly better than the second one, because of the large scale of this movie. ![]() It all is also the reason why the movie is now nearly 3 hours long. ![]() But like I said before, after a while you just stop caring about it and simply enjoy the movie for what it brings you. The many betrayals among characters and side-picking became really confusing after a while, till it reached a point when you just didn't knew who was fighting for what. It had all the potential and budget for that, now if they had only cut down about halve of the script.Most of the plot-lines seem redundant and are actually far from believable because they contradict from what happened in the first two movies. No doubt in my mind that this movie could had become the best one out of the series. And this movie regardless should really be able to take you away on a roller-coaster-ride of pure entertainment. There are more new characters and as far as the new many plot-lines are concerned.well let me just say that after a while I just gave up trying to understand the movie and just let the movie take me away with its visuals, humor and other entertaining elements. "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" goes on in the same trend as the previous movie. They already went wrong with this approach during the second movie "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest", when they put in more new characters and different hard to follow plot lines. In my opinion the first movie "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" is still the best because of the reason that it's simple, fun and choices to be purely entertaining. It's really too bad that this time they felt the need to make things even bigger, more complex and conclusive than the previous two movies. The characters are fun and great, always adventurous and spectacular to watch. The Pirates of the Caribbean-movie serials is probably one I'll never grow tired off. ![]()
