My favorite film review site is back...with a vengeance =) I'm liking the new look a lot and find myself hooked by these incredibly well edited write-ups. Merryl, you should buy your "editor" dinner for the great job ;) As for the movie in question, POTC:AWE was more like POTC:POS. Maybe that's a little harsh but it really squandered any residual good will I had after the first movie and validated all the bile I had spewed on the second installment. Johnny Depp needs to move on to something else worthy of his talents and Orlando Bloom needs to take a long walk off a short plank (pirate jokes...heh...sorry). Oh happy day!!!

If you have a problem with me correcting commas over your shoulder, you should just come out and say it. :-P I have to agree with your review here–I was excited to see this movie but left disappointed. Even a rabid Johnny Depp fan like me couldn’t overlook the convoluted plot. Since you didn’t comment on the acting here, I’ll put in my two cents. Johnny Depp was amusing as usual, but unfortunately the gags were just more of the same from the first two films. As funny as Captain Jack Sparrow is, this seadog needs to learn a few more tricks. While I think Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly have improved slightly since the first film, they are still only levels above automotan status. And shame on the screenwriters for wasting Chow Yun-Fat’s valuable time. So why exactly is “editor” in quotation marks like that?
