Interminably dull near three hour closure to the original Pirates trilogy shot back to back with Dead Man's Chest (2006).

There's so much exposition going back and forth you lose the will to keep watching. I just didn't care about any of the characters nor what they were doing. It's Disney at it's self indulgent, nonsensical worst with a script that goes round in circles trying to work out it's own half arsed mythology. Only Johnny Depp occasionally rises above effluent with his performance as Captain Jack Sparrow,whilst the final destruction of the Endeavour by the Black Pearl and Flying Dutchman is the only truly memorable part of the film.
Despite my apathy toward this i won't be getting rid of it. It's Disney so unlikely to ever get another physical release again. I won't be getting rid of any Disney / Fox dvd's either for the same reason.

I also need to get a Blu of next film On Stranger Tides seeing as that's the only one i'm currently missing from the collection.
