Pirates of the Curry Bean: At World's End (hopefully?)

To be honest, I didn't really enjoy Pirates of the Caribbean 3. There's the prerequisite intricate set design and elaborate fight scenes involving archaic weapons. But you see, it feels like it's missing something.

I gotta admit, I watched the first movie The Curse of the Black Pearl but not the second, Dead Man's Chest. But when you compare the first and third movie, there's really not much of a comparison. I couldn't even dig the plot. It was lots of politicking which no one really understands and does nothing to the film but to hold the pacing of the movie hostage. (ARRGH MY BLADDER IS FULL WHEN IS THIS INANE VERBAL PILLOWFIGHT EVER GONNA END?)

After an epic 2h 48min movie, the most you'll remember are the cheeky antics of Jack Sparrow, the cruelty of Davy Jones, the occasional joke and the well-designed set which is supposed to be Singapore in the times of maritime anarchy.

I walked into the film expecting a good movie (gee, how bad can a sequel to an excellent film possibly get) and came out a tad disappointed and VERY confused. Turns out, I'm not the only one.

And possibly the worst thing about the movie is: it hints to YET another sequel. Bleagh. Save your money.
