I didn't like the movie at all and got bored very easily. You can tell Mr. Depp is tired of his role and hates having to dress up in that costume... usands of times. I miss Will Turner and his girl and wish the series ended At Worlds End. Full Review

My family and I enjoyed this movie, though we didn't see it in theatres because the 3rd Pirates was so ridiculous, absurd and offensive in its... g of Western civilization, (represented by the British Navy and the East India Company). But this movies shunned political correctness to return to the escapist fun of "The Curse of the Black Pearl," the best of the series. It had two very enjoyable surprise twists near the end that we didn't see coming! Of course, the music is unbeatable, and really helps deliver audience satisfaction. That said, here are the negatives: the character with the deep, authentic relationship to God gave that up for a relationship with a half-woman-half-fish, a decision with which the geniuses @ Disney obviously thought the audience would sympathize! At other times, the movie seems to self-parody, when the characters are looking for something, e.g., ships on the horizon, they turn around, and the ships are right off the port bow! This happened with at least 3 "searches," with the searched-for item- (once, the item was a mountainside)- being upon them immediately after they are unable to see it. But the movie moves so fast, these goofy transitions are laughable, but not annoying. King George is played by the standard Peter Ustinov wannabe, but the portrayal is passable-- though the actual King George would have had quite an accent, since his English was marginal. He spoke French as a child, then German. Probably only historians and homeschoolers would notice this. Another negative: the unnecessary and voyeuristic pubescent-male-type focus on women's mammary glands so common in modern movies. Overall, this movie is a tremendous improvement over the 2nd and 3rd Pirates, and is more in keeping with the actual character of the historical characters that are portrayed (such as, the Spanish aristocracy.) Folks on Blockbuster.com are saying "I liked it, but make no more of this series." I don't agree with that. If more Pirates movies are made of this calibre, or better, I would enjoy seeing them.
