Review on PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN 4-On Stranger Tides

Last Saturday, i went to Gurney Plaza with lan to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 4-On stranger tides. Luckily i have bought the ticket thru e-payment and i didnt have to rush. There were so many people, lining up to buy the ticket(i was so glad i'd done that) So, all i had to do was,to take the tickets from the counter. The movie takes 2 hours and 20 minutes and overall, it is an entertaining movie. As u know, orlando bloom and keira knieghtly are no longer part of the cast, replaced by Penelope Cruz.

The character of Capt. Jack Sparrow plays by Johnny Depp(my favourite one) is really well developed to the max here. For me, Jack Sparrow is the attraction for me to watch this movie. I love Johnny Depp. He's so versatile...he's funny, serious, amusing, handsome and charming too. Well, in this movie there are many talking scenes-talking plus explaining, plus defending and fighting scenes too!Similarly, what Johnny Depp has been doing in all Pirates movies and what he did in this movie, no one else could have done it with such perfection. That's Johnny Depp(Jack Sparrow) for you.



We still have Capt. Barbossa, an old villain from the first three episodes. We also have Jack Sparrow's father-special appearance for few minutes, explaining on the fountain of youth and it's ritual to Jack. Average movie i think, enjoyable but i had expected more i think...Johnny Depp's talent, he is undeniably and incredibly talented actor. I just hope Johnny will take a serious role, bigger one that will test his own ability in his next project, maybe. Actually, both of them, Jack Sparrow and Barbossa(Geoffrey Rush) embark on a quest to find the elusive fountain of youth, only to discover that Blackbeard and his daughter(Penelope Cruz) are after it too. On Stranger Tides is not only better than the last two installments but nearly as good as the the original.

The storyline is lucid,plenty of jokes which made the first movie good,less use of nonsense CGI and absence of two characters actually gives a new lease of life particularly since Ian McShane (Blackbeard) is as expected just brilliant. Penelope Cruz (Angelica) appears to be hiding in long dresses to hide her obvious problem at that time. One more thing about this movie is, the mermaids are surprisingly beautiful but dangerous!! All in all, it is a popcorn movie and does a good job of what is expected!
