Movie Review

Ok, Crystal and myself sat through Pirates -- At Worlds End yesterday. So here is my really quick review. Now you have to understand that I didn't see the first movie until it came out on DVD and only after someone gave it to me as a gift. And I guess I should admit that the first time I watched the movie I fell asleep. And it took me months to finally finish the movie.

But before you stop reading this and disregard my opinion...I did see the second movie in the theatre and stayed awake the entire time! (Although the second movie was a bit confusing.)

So I convinced Crystal to head out to the movies with me to watch the exciting conclusion to the trilogy. And I have to say she wasn't too excited about seeing the movie.

So here we go, my thoughts on the movie.

After watching the second movie and thinking that things couldn't get any more confusing I realized how wrong I really was. The third movie takes the story to an entirely different level. We've got multiple Capt. Jack's eating peanuts, a giant sea-lady that turns into a bunch of crabs and a huge sword battle on the top of a ship's sail.

Ok, so enough of the story. Let's talk about the rest of the movie. I have to say that it was a bit too long for me. I think that's been a problem with other movies this summer as well. But on the plus side I really liked all of the special effects. Industrial Lights and Magic did a really good job with them.

I really liked the fact that this was the final movie in the trilogy only to see the movie and realize that there will probably be a 4th, 5th and 6th one.

So overall I thought the movie was enjoyable but in reality it could have waited until DVD.

And make sure you stay through the credits!
