Arr! Pirates

I've just watched Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World's End yesterday, and found it quite entertaining, but there are a few scenes that seem to drag. Seeing Jack back to his antics was more than enough a reason to watch any other Pirates sequel or prequel, and the third installment wasn't disappointing, to say the least. There is one thing that came to mind when watching Pirates 3. Mythology. Yes, mythology. A lot of critics want logical plot in movies, but I don't care what they think. Mythology is the furthest thing from logic, and I like it very much. If anyone of you readers out there know mythology, you might guessed what's on my mind. It's like telling a tale of Sindbad and his voyages, but with a lot more colorful characters in it. If you want explanations to the Pirates plot, then I would really suggest looking somewhere else, or maybe in the next installment of the Pirates series. Pirates is for those that don't take plot and character development seriously into account and would like more to see how the story unfolds itself. You may wonder why are all the characters included, but it doesn't really matter in the end, when Jack's back to his old glory. If people expect movies to explain everything else, I guess they might be better off with documentaries. Bottomline: Just go watch it, and look at the monkey go. ROFL!
