Tonight I went to see the last movie - Pirates of the Caribbean “At World’s End” - in the trilogy and I must say that together, they make a really really good trilogy. I put it up there above The Matrix and other movies with sequels that I’ve seen.
Sure, it has lots of fantastical moments and CGI, but that’s where movies are headed and if you want to stick to plain un-enhanced movies, well go back to before Star Wars cos it had effects too. (That takes you to early 70’s I reckon!).
The story was very good. I particularly liked the weird stuff happening to Captain Jack Sparrow throughout. Very surreal and I loved it 
I’d suggest renting (BUYING) the second one and watching it again in case you forgot some integral parts of the movie. I did and had to pick it up again as this one played along. I do think I would have got even more out of it if I hadn’t been scratching my head to remember certain references to the previous ones.
This is probably the first movie (including sequels) I will give 5 stars. On their own, they would not have made it, but with this one to tie it all up, I believe they’ve done a great job. Well done!
PS: I just read that there’s something after the credits. Won’t say what, but for the first time I didn’t stay on until after them.
