Pirates of the Caribbean: A Brain's dead end

Knightly was a pretty little thing. Nice pair of legs I must say. Bloom was alright. He didn't Legolas this one though.

Glaringly pathetic was that something kept happening in the story and everyone seemed to be very riled up about it, although I never really could come to grasps to what was happening. And then when all seemed confusing, YET another new 'secret story BLAH' is unveiled.

"Oh! My! I really wanted to know about HIS/HER love/weapon/secret! Wow, that really builds the story and greatly impacts the course of the story!"

Battered by an insanely large number of nouns, I was forced to indulge in the comedy of the situation even though, I'm sure, the writers didn't intend it there. 3 hours of meaningless loaf. Blah.

In the end however, Sparrow comes to the rescue with his usual antics. All the time, one would sit hopefully waiting for the bitch to cover up her legs and let the slides move on the scenes with Jacky. Nothing else was really worth the torture. Not even the action.
5/10

Its a not-so-bad movie. Not a good movie. They're 'riding' the wave of potc1/2. Even I enjoyed the movie...I just felt it didn't deserve so much attention as the previous two. So I gave a 5. U still can watch the movie as I said.

@sha
O.O seriously. :p
