A well suited ending for a movie about pirates
A Disney live-action movie that I actually wanted to see; it's been a while since that last happened. Replace Lindsay Lohan or Anne Hathaway with Keira Knightley in a feature film and voilĂ , mega blockbuster.Johnny Depp's reprise as Jack Sparrow (Captain Jack Sparrow that is) as well as Keira Knightley's performance -she can just stand there for all I care- keep the movie fun; Depp does a good job again playing the most difficult character in the movie. Hey, nobody claimed it to have the depth of classical theatre. It is nevertheless very entertaining.
It's already generally known that this movie ends with a cliff-hanger, so I can't complain too much about the ending. Let's see: $7 movie ticket, ~$25 DVD, another ~$7 for the third movie, and saying nothing of the $258 million grossed so far... I think the pirates here have their homeport not in the Caribbean but rather in Burbank.
