Pirates of the Caribbian 4: The strangest low tide

13Jun11

Pirates of the Caribbean 4: Stranger tide is the dimmest among all the sequels. You have list of things in this movie such as 3D, whole lotta of Depp, flashy sets and top notch choreography, all but a decent sript.

Capt. Jack Sparrow, after frolicking about in some clamorous escape sequences in London, is forced to work on a ship commanded by the dreaded pirate Blackbeard (Ian McShane).Angelica (Penelope Cruz), apparently the daughter of Blackbeard, a voodoo practicing woman is back in Sparrow’s life to reignite a long left history.
They set sail to find the fountain of youth before the Spanish do. Also the fountain is hunted by Sparrow’s old fiend Barbossa funded by the Majesty of England. The film really gets overboard with the introduction of a mermaid whose tears are essential for extended life.

Talk about over exploitation and here you got it. Pirates of the Caribbean 4 is one sequel where every thing is out of proportion. The sets were pompous and Depp was mature along with his fellow actors. But his ubiquitous presence in every scene made it one dimensional and placid. The movie could have been iteresting if director had got his script a little more than superficial. Mr. Marshall stick to musicals, please.
