A reluctant Hit- Starring Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, Kiera Knightly, Geoffrey Rush, Bill Nighy

From IMDB.Com ***Captain Barbossa, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann must sail off the edge of the map, navigate treachery and betrayal, and make their final alliances for one last decisive battle.***

I had to use the plot summary from IMDB.com because I had absolutely no idea what this movie was about. The pirate movies have gotten more complicated as the movies progress. The first one was rather simple and fun. The second movie got a little more complicated but I was still able to follow the plot line. This movie was increasingly more confusing and I found myself trying to forget what the plot was and just enjoy the scenery and action of the film.

That being said, I can say that the art direction of this film is simply fabulous. It is beautiful from start to finish. The writing of this film needed more fine tuning. Keep it simple, stupid! This audience is children and adult heavy so we need to keep things simple for everyone.

Bottom Line: Not as interesting as the first two but still enjoyable to watch.

Action

Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of action/adventure violence and some frightening images.

Running Time: 2 hours 48 minutes (not including previews)
