slumberWhat I loved about the Pirates sequel was how they weren't afraid to change the characters a little, give them a bit more mess to work out. At World's End is messy, plot-wise, and that's totally fine for me. It's better than how single-mindedly emo Peter Parker is, or how single-mindedly afraid of a little propriety Shrek is. Sequels should move past the first movie's issues, and I hated, for instance, how Shrek insisted on staying in his swamp no matter what, but whatever. :|
So yes, props to them for that. And the effects. The effects were rather fantastic, although it amuses me how I wrinkled my nose and thought to myself, "Self, they're stretching it now. I wish they'd stuck to the semi-believable."
Only I remembered that the second movie had tentacled sea creatures who could not die, and the first had a cursed crew, and apparently I found those semi-believable. :|
Anyway. For those who have yet to see Pirates, though?
STAY AFTER THE CREDITS.
Just so you don't miss the epilogue. :|
