'Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End' - Film review
4 out of 10
Much like the previous film in the series, this film is far too long and self-indulgent. It has too many characters (more even than last time) and is over 150 minutes. It's a one note film, with no variation in pacing, so it quickly becomes boring despite all the action.
The visual design and special effects are stunning but they can't hide the fact that the film itself is completely worthless. What can almost hide that is Hans Zimmer's quite excellent score but you might as well just listen to that on CD - it would take less time than watching this.
If you liked the previous one then you'll like this because it's even more of the same. For me, it was the film equivalent of Mozart's music - there's so much of it you forget the parts that are clever and it never seems to know when to end.
