Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007)

20181117:
I initially planned to watch this in the afternoon but I ended up watching it in the evening with my wife. It's the first time I've seen it.

First, the transition between the previous movie and this movie was blunt. In fact, it might be accurate to say there was no transition.

Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp)

This film was also notably weird at times without a clear sense of rhyme or reason.

And when the story didn't make sense, it was too convoluted.

Finally, the action was sometimes too ridiculously crazy to follow; I had a similar problem when watching Transformers. In contrast, I love watching the action in Jackie Chan movies because there's a lot going on, but I can still follow the action.

Overall, the movie has some amazing special effects, but the plot is weak. This is especially unfortunate because this movie provides closure to the second movie, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.

Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley)

Netflix determined the movie for me as a 98% match. I decided to give the movie neither a thumbs up nor a thumbs down.

Pintel (Lee Arenberg) and Ragetti (Mackenzie Crook)
