Pirates of the Caribbean: on stranger tides review
My Rating: 4/10
IMDb Rating: 6.7/10 Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 32% Metacritics Rating: 45/100 My Favorite Quotes: 1. "You know the feeling you get when you're standing in a high plsce, the sudden urge to jump, I don't have it". - Captain Jack Sparrow Is this even Pirates of the Caribbean? At first glance one might think this is Pirates of the Caribbean, but after a more careful analysis one will come to the realization that this is just a pirate movie with Captain Jack Sparrow. After completion of "At World End" there is no apparent reason as to why William and Elizabeth could not be in the next movie? So, we are left with Johnny Depp who is amazing as usual, we have the classic crew, but we are missing Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly. It became such a different movie without them. As much as I disliked their romance that was put into every movie, but Their acting was still absent where it was much needed. And this left Captain Barbosa to get much more screen time. Which was sometime good, but there was way more than necessary. The entire movie felt like one giant filler movie, much like Naruto and its countless number of unnecessary episodes that had nothing to do with the storyline. I will admit I liked the idea of finding the fountain of youth and also the amount of deceit and backstabbing that went on. It was also much to long. It still wasn't enough to make a good movie and it did not nearly compare with the first two movies or even the bad third one for that matter. I'm guessing this was just made to please the die hard fans and hold off their hunger until the 5th movie could be made. |
