Movie synopsis
After the action of PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MAN'S CHEST, anti-hero Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) is trapped in the netherworld of Davy Jones's locker. Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) has returned from the dead to aid Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) in their quest to rescue the beloved captain. They journey to Singapore to ask for help from notorious pirate Sao Feng (Chow Yun-Fat), and with this new alliance, they travel to the edge of the earth to find Jack. Then they will join forces with the world's most powerful pirates to unite against Lord Brackett (Tom Hollander) and the East India Company.AT WORLD'S END is an exercise in excess, boasting a running time of nearly three hours and a labyrinthine map of double- and triple-crosses. Characters return from the dead and change allegiances with ease, thanks to the magic of Tia Dalma (Naomie Harris) and the pirate code of ethics--or lack thereof. Though the third film in the series is filled with action and special effects befitting any blockbuster, it's the performances that make the movie memorable. Depp has earned an Oscar nod for his role as Jack, but he's not the only one who shines. With Jack locked away, the film sits on the strong shoulders of Rush, as well as Stellan Skarsgard as Bootstrap Bill and the brilliant British actor Bill Nighy as Davy Jones. Despite having to act behind a mess of CGI tentacles, Nighy nearly steals the show, as in the previous films UNDERWORLD and LOVE ACTUALLY. This is literally and figuratively the darkest entry in director Gore Verbinski's trilogy, as the film trades the sunny skies of the Caribbean for the world's most treacherous seas. There's plenty of rum-soaked humor, but it's balanced by betrayal and sacrifice.

Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World's End(2007)
Created: 16/12/07
) This is the third and possibly the final installment for the Pirates Of The Caribbean series. Having been filmed back to back with the previous film, Dead Man's Chest, we pick up where we left off with the gang. Jack Sparrow has just been swallowed alive by the Kraken and the East India Trading Company has control over Davy Jones and his devices of torture. Tom Hollander reprises his roll as the menacing Lord Beckett who is attempting to wipe out any and all pirates, (film opens w a line up to the gallows). This time there's not as much explaining to do to follow along with. The final showdown may seem a little querky to the audience being that it's only between three ships out of several hundred, however the visual effects are dazzling and graphic. In this film, Bill Kighy, (Davy) and Naomie Harris, (Tia Lama) have a chance to really appeal to the audience with their relationship as well as having Bill switching back and forth from half human/half squid to an actual human in the effects department. The film also introduces an old pirate brethren hymn called, Hoist The Colours.

This is a rollicking movie, with a phenomenal soundtrack, often breathtaking cinematography, an action-laden script, and a delightfully tongue-firmly-in-cheek performance by Johnny Depp as Capt. Jack Sparrow. It is a bit longer than I expected, but that's not bad for an enjoyable viewing experience. The two-disk set limited edition has some wonderful bonus features, too--though one, "Bloopers of the Caribbean," seems to be missing. I couldn't find it anywhere on the DVD set I bought, at least.
Also be warned: if your DVD player is more than 5 years old, the feature film disk may not play properly on your DVD player. It may not play at all. According to the customer service folk at DisneyDVD.com/support, some of the code on the film's disk is too new for older DVD players to read. But the additional features disk plays just fine.
Normally, the 3rd film of a trilogy won't necessarily make sense without one's first having seen the other two, but this film does stand on its own. Still, seeing Pirates I and Pirates II will enhance one's appreciation of what otherwise would be incomprehensible inside jokes in Pirates III.

Pirates-At World's End
Created: 17/03/08
) I really enjoyed this movie, the action, the scenery/special effects, the plot, all of it. This is the follow up to the second Pirates film-Dead Man's Chest, and it picks right up where #2 left off. You sometimes need to pay attention closely as the plot becomes tangled with various charactors double-crossing one another, but after all, they ARE pirates. Nobody is as good a pirate as Johnny Depp is as Captain Jack Sparrow. An excellent finish(?) to the series, and a darn good movie for everyone to see.
Brand new, still had plastic on it!!

) I love the Pirates movies, so since I own the first two, I decided to buy the third one before I had seen it. I mean, you can't have the first two and not have the last one! However, I was a little disappointed about the storyline of this last one-- Kinda hard to follow, too much going on, there were so many new characters and themes. It just wasn't as exciting/entertaining/funny as the first two were. Maybe if I watch it another time I would understand it more.. But apparently I'm not the only one who had a hard time following the plot of the movie: the booklet inside the DVD actually had a Question/Answer section because the movie was so confusing!! Oh well. I guess they got caught up on the special effects (which were pretty cool) and forgot about developing a story. It was an ok movie, but I personally don't think it measured up to the first two at all. I was pretty disappointed. It coulda been so good!! :(
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007, DVD)
Created: 23/01/08
This is a must see on DVD! At the movies I did not get "all" of the nuiances that this spectacular movie has to offer. Meaning, it's a movie that asks to be watched for the second time. Though quirky, the many Jacks is a great testament to Johnny Depps acting capability. I enjoyed the special effects, the many battle scenes, either the ships or hand-to-hand combat. Not to give it away, but the conclusion of several characters was surprising, sad and grateful. Bill Nighy was fantastic to watch. He had more extensive scenes and his character development of "Jugs" is awesome. Surprising switchover of loyalies and a great surprise from Tia Dalma. I had heard it was "disjointed" in plot, but, what I noticed was the opposite. This movie joined each character, main and supporting, with the development of their respective life and plot from COTBP, DMC and AWE. The series could close here, but the last teaser after the credits gives hope for more to come. I have viewed this once in the theaters and once on DVD with plans to view it again for pieces I missed. Exceptional movie.
