Rating: 1.5/5
Circumnavigation of an entirely different world, from one exotic place to another, along its shores, in the center of vast oceans, deep into the waters, over the mountain peaks & in the stunning dark caves. Sounds breathtaking? No, it’s not. We are not exploring an official website of “Incredible India”, we are talking about movie and so, it’s not breathtaking. A movie also needs many other elements apart from cinematography. I (without even a slightest doubt in my brain) would say Rob Marshalls’s “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger tides” is the worst film of the series which insults previous movies because they dexterously explored the horizons of adventure & fun with imaginative action sequences while this latest film just shamelessly explores the horizons of dumbness.
The race is very much like living for the characters in Pirates movies. Sometimes it’s for medallion, map, chest, key and this time, to get water from the fountain-of-youth. For effective functioning of that water, it must be mixed with mermaid’s tear. Let me now give details of the creatures who are behind it. There’s Spanish army, British troop which surprisingly includes Captain Barbossa (with one wooden leg), Captain Blackbeard with his crew & hell rocker, Jack Sparrow. Oops, Captain Jack Sparrow! Crew of Blackbeard includes her daughter Angelica (played by Penelope Cruz) whose love interest is none other than Jack.
In this 2 hours & 16 minutes long film, there are various elements which bore you to an apex level. Love story shaped between sexy mermaid (played by Astrid Berges-Frisbey) & Christian disciple, Philip (played by Sam Claflin) is enormously melodramatic & tedious. And worst thing is, that mermaid reminded me of Shyamalan’s flop film “Lady in the water”. Over stretched tête-à-tête makes you yawn endlessly and dark tone of the film (because it was shot at night) almost certainly makes you sleep without uttering sweet dreams. Enthusiasm, thrill, con thing, amazing foot chases & remarkable sword fights are missing in this film.
Matchless personality, Johnny Depp as all time unpredictable Captain Jack Sparrow is the only watch worthy thing in this movie apart from cinematography. He tries his level best to pull this movie up and he partially succeeds. Loyal fans of this series might tolerate this intolerable film and the only reason would be Depp.
Pirates is tasteless without Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightley, that crew member who used to search his eye ball along with his partner, awkwardly entertaining monkey & Black Pearl. Yes, it’s a fact. Without them, Pirates movie appeared pirated. Go to nearest lake, sea, river or any thing but just don’t dare to sail “On stranger tides”, it’s not worth !!
