Captain Jack Sparrow is back!!!

And instead of rum, he is after the waters from the Fountain of Youth in this newest addition to the Pirates of the Carribean series! I'm not going to give too much away, but basically it starts off in London, England where a court case is taking place for the infamous Captain Jack Sparrow. From there, it's just old fashioned Pirates of the Carribean fun! Jack gets captured, Jack escapes, Jack winds up fighting someone... isn't that how it always works?

As most of you have probably seen from the trailers, Barbossa is now captain of a ship in the King's military. My opinion, the look is not Barbossa at all! He still has his scraggly beard and face as well as his bad teeth and untrimmed nails! However, he is not missing his leg. Thankfully, he is still a pirate at heart! One of the funniest parts in the movie was when Barbossa poured himself some rum in a tea cup as opposed to actual tea! Proof that Barbossa was simply using the King's Military as a means to a greater end... and that end is attaining another Pirate ship!

As most of you know if you've seen the 3rd film, Barbossa was left to be Captain of The Black Pearl. Long story short, Blackbeard, who appears in this movie, took The Black Pearl from Barbossa and attempted to kill him by stringing him up by his legs, hence the missing leg that Barbossa personally lopped off!

Horrible look, isn't it? Thank goodness he didn't wear the hair throughout the entire movie!

I'm sure a lot of people loved this movie! I mean, who doesn't like pirates and Johnny Depp? Two of my favorite things! Regardless of the high anticipation, I found that this movie was lacking. That is to say, it was not what I expected... but then sequels often aren't as good as the original. If i had to choose an order of my favorite movies in the series, they would be 1, 3, 2, 4. Again, not to say that this movie was bad... it just wasn't as good as the others. There wasn't much character development, which was ok for Jack and Barbossa since we already know who they are... however, there wasn't much backstory with Blackbeard and his daughter, Angelina.



I think what was good about the second and third movies is that they really took the time to develop the villain, Davy Jones. Not to mention he was really cool looking!


Davy Jones

I'll be honest, I missed Will Turner and Elizabeth Swan. They could have at least had a small role! Freaking Hollywood... changing movies around and such... Also, comparing Penelope' Cruz and Keira Knightly... I would say Keira Knightly is more attractive but Penelope' Cruz is spicier! I'm just going to throw this out here and probably get attacked for it; I think Keira Knightly is a better actress than Penelope' Cruz!


lol, halo... did you guys hear? They're making a 4th one... i'll blog about that later.

They are both great actresses, don't get me wrong. I like the ladies! I'm just giving my honest opinion. Orlando Bloom got to play, like, the best roll ever in the LoTr trilogy when he got to play Legolas! I would have loved to be an archer... not only did he have a bow, but he had swords! Who wouldn't want to play that part? And then he get's the part of being a swordsman in Pirates of the Carribean AND he gets the girl AND he becomes to the new captain of the Flying Dutchman! He has it good...

Speaking of hotness in this movie, did you know they had mermaids??? NAKED MERMAIDS! Who, for some reason, don't have nipples... That turns me off to Ariel for some reason... lol.



However... watch out... BECAUSE THESE MERMAIDS WILL RIP YOUR FACE OFF!!!


SURPRISE COCKFAG!!! lol.

Of course the mermaids don't have nipples... it's disney... *sigh*

I suppose i'd give this movie a 8 out of 10 stars. I liked it, but it wasn't totally "WOW!" like the first movie was when it came out. Not to mention that they set the bar pretty high with those first pirates of the carribean movies! They left it open for another sequel, for sure (we all know it's coming), but I would have liked if they kept Blackbeard alive and capitalized on him more throughout the next film, similarly to Davy Jones.

So what did you, my loyal readers, think of the movie? Was it daring enough for you? Exciting? Did you love it, hate it, could live without it? Leave your comments! Savy?

(I love speaking pirate!)
