Sending Captain Sparrow, pirate ships and a curious collection of crew-members plummeting over the edge, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, entertains audiences with elaborate scenery, rapier wit and wielding, and a few unique surprises, not the least of which is Keith Richards as Captain Teague, Jack Sparrow’s father.

The Kraken gets indigestion and its just reward for swallowing Captain Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest(2006). Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) is crowned Pirate King. That’s right, King not Queen. And Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) literally loses his heart to Elizabeth.

Depp is delightful as the dainty debonaire pirate, Bloom blossoms in his role, and Chow Yun-Fat is frightening as Feng. Geoffrey Rush as Hector Barbossa and Tom Hollander as Lord Cutler Beckett give extraordinary  performances.The soaring musical score by Hans Zimmer is definitely Oscar worthy.

Be prepared to laugh out loud and clap and cheer at the end. Despite holding your bladder for three hours don’t rush out of the theatre during the credits. There is another surprise after the extremely long list of names of brilliant people that participated in the making of the most intense, intellectual, and entertaining of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies so far. It’s certainly not going to be the last.
