Somebody's taken my ship.... again
24 May 2007
I loved the first Pirates movie and the second one was a surprisingly good sequel. Expectations for the third were astronomical to say the least.

All the gang is back this time, loose ends are tied up only to be loosened again at the end. The movie takes on a grander scale and its all about the big things, but the creators have continually put in the humorous dialogue, and lots of Jack Sparrow to lighten the mood.

I've read many reviews from critics saying the movie was extremely confusing. I'm not a blatant fanboy - I went to this movie with a relaxed demeanour and I was able to understand everything. I mean, a lot of things happen but in no way are you scratching your head going "I don't get it." The movie is filled with twists and plot turns, secret plans, treachery, heroism and most of all, good ole Pirates. This one is unmissable, you will end up in the theatre or renting on DVD and loving every moment of it. The crowd cheered in the beginning (as they had in Spiderman-3) but the difference was, when the credits appeared, they gave the movie a standing ovation. All I remember at Spiderman-3 was a mob of people, rushing to get back to their cars and forget what a waste of $350 million that film was.

And to cap it all off, Jack is back where he started, a familiar setting and perhaps a premise for a fourth film. Bravo Pirates, you've continued your brand of great action, humour that's going to keep audiences coming back for more.
