All in all a welcome return to the franchise but can they do it again?


Well 'L' I bet they can and will. That's been the problem for me. They're too much the same.

I just wish they'd actually explore the Caribbean a little more too. I mean that is the title. The Caribbean is beautiful and they really haven't explored the islands or the islanders. There's so much history there to tap into, but they seem to constantly ignore this.

Yeah the double-crosses can be a bit much but I kind of didn't mind it for the most part and I was expecting it because it was in the other movies. I can see why some folks don't like it.

I have to agree that they should explore the Caribbean more and use it's history. They are obviously going to stick with the supernatural so why not take a real historical event or situation and add a supernatural twist to it. Personally I've always liked that scenario when it's done well enough and they have the right set up in Pirates. Much like they took the idea of Davy Jones Locker and put their own spin on the story.

I must not have been in the right frame of mind or something when I saw this movie, because I didn't enjoy it at all, and all I hear is people saying how great it was.



"Haha, mine is an evil laugh."
