PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD’S END
2007, Gore Verbinski, United States
1st Viewing, Theater

Bloated mess very much in the vein of the second film, which lost the fun and magic of the charming original. Johnny Depp is a great actor and his performance in the original was the heart of the film. However as this franchise develops further with the latest two sequels, Depp is being overused with a character that has now become dull. Even so Depp remains the most likable aspect of the film (alongside some impressive special effects and set designs) as the rest of the cast is completely uninteresting and each character has there own motive that subplots begin to overwhelm any drama or charm or action that takes place. Even for brainless Hollywood blockbusters, the latest Pirates film stands as an uninspiring film.
