Watch Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides For Free

The Age of Commercialism

Brilliant and touching

It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

This is one of those movies I knew going in that I would have a hard time with. I was told many things about this movie that were only criticism and hate. While I try to form my own opinion on every movie I see and begin by ignoring anything I've heard, This movie fell terribly short of any review I had heard or the past trilogy of POTC.Missing two of the greatest assets of the franchise hurt this movie some, but the main reason this movie suffered was because of the supporting roles not stepping up to the plate. Sparrow and Barbosa did well in keeping the adventure interesting, but the other roles fell short. In my opinion, this insert was flawed in a major way and damaged the franchise. While the plot was okay, it didn't come together and the new characters hurt this movie in comparison to the first trilogy.

The fourth episode of the saga "Pirates of the Caribbean" is disappointing. There is a less impressive Jack Sparrow (I said Jack Sparrow not Johnny Deep), a film with a scenario too simple that doesn't put anything and nobody in value, or even Black Beard that arrives like a hair on the soup, we had never heard of it, and there is also emblematic characters missing, like Will and Elizabeth but also the two pirates of the Black Pearl who were recurrent since the first opus. Finally, the biggest flaw, in my opinion, of this film is that in the title "Pirates of the Caribbean" there is the word "Pirate", so it should happen at sea but however, 70 percent of the film happens on the ground and without the Black Pearl. All this makes this movie an average movie not worth more than 5/10. Définitly the movie too.

I enjoyed the first two movies. They were great fun. I thought At World's End was middle of the road. But this film, I'm sorry if you liked it, I really hated it. I didn't think it would be THAT boring. I mean Good lord! If there's one thing a movie with a charismatic protagonist, swashbuckling pirates, epic sword fights, fun plundering scenes, and ghoulish villains should not be, it's boring.The mermaids were completely unnecessary, the tone was disjointed, the pacing was bad, the characters were all over the place. This movie is a rough one to sit through for me.

I don't understand why so many people hate this movie because in my opinion it's very good. It's well made, well preformed (especially Jack Sparrow if you compare his performance in his latest movie) and it has an interesting story and just because there aren't so many connections with the previous movies it doesn't mean it has to suck. It's one of the best in the franchise and i absolutely love it and am glad they made this movie. I suggest this movie to everybody and don't listen to the haters just make your own opinion about it.
