Pirates of Caribbean - On Stranger Tides

Movie Name: Pirates of Caribbean - On Stranger Tides
Genre: Action, Comedy, Drama, Romance
Language: English

I watched on the opening weekend itself. I was overwhelmed by the crowd which was there for the movie. Everyone was excited to watch the new pirate movie. I also went with high expectations.

The story was about the search for fountain of youth. There were many a troupes looking for the same. English troupe with Captain Barbosa, Black Beard pirate ship with Captain Black Beard and Jack Sparrow and daughter of Black Beard and Scottish troupe were the search parties. Jack was in the center of attention as he was the only one who knew the exact location of the fountain. There were twists, turns, dangers, mermaids and what not in the magnificent journey. It was a journey which displayed many a shades in Jack’s character. There was love interest for Jack in the movie as Angelica, daughter of Black Beard played by Penelope Cruz.

The direction was great so as the graphics used in the movie. The 3D effect was not prominent part of the movie. The background music was also compatible with the story. But despite all this, the movie solely belonged to Jack played by Depp. Depp was successful to display the coolness of Jack with slight eeriness once again. Depp handled the pressure of repetition well and made the movie one of the favorites among movie buffs. Other actor/ actresses had done well but there was not much to do for them. Penelope has done justification with the lead female role. The movie was a treat with funny dialogues, great graphics and Depp :) It is a must watch for all movie goers. Ending has indicated for a possible movie in the series.

My ratings are 4.0/5.0
