A few laughs, some fantastic CGI and a great cameo from Keith Richards aside, this is turgid and tiresome.

Both sequels to the original film are confusing and long. But the third does improve on the second, because at least something happens.
03/03/08
At World's End's greatest sin, just like the second film, is that it forgets to be fun.

It's unlikely many fans will have the patience to sit through this soulless, yet visually enticing voyage to nowhere more than once.
01/02/08
Although visually impressive, At World's End is a bitter disappointment considering how fresh and exciting the crew was just a few years ago.

Not for the logically minded or the seasick prone, the film, like its two predecessors, is a dizzing concoction of multiple simultaneous stories taking place either in the real world or anybody's unhinged imagination, take your pick.

For a long time -- although definitely not all the way to the interminable finale of this whale of a nautical exercise -- you're likely to enjoy what you'll see
11/08/07
When it hits, it is absolutely the best of the three films, but when it misses, it is endlessly tedious.

Yo ho ho and a bottle of regulations!...has the soul of a three-hour U.N. committee meeting. Gods' bodkins, me hearties, this movie blows like a whale from the vasty deep.

POTC: At World's End strives for epic-ness, but it's not an epic. It's fluff. And fluff should never, ever exceed more than 1 hour and 47 minutes, including end credits.

Jerry Bruckheimer hasn’t produced a movie this undignified since Pearl Harbor -- that cornucopia of corn and bombast, where he ransacked history and sullied patriotism.
07/11/07
The wild, unstoppable commercial success of the Pirates franchise has freed Verbinski to spend a lot of time on flights of fancy and mythological asides.
07/10/07
It is not a great film, but it captures an innocence rarely seen in theaters, let alone in mega-hyped summer blockbusters.
07/03/07
"At World's End" is a sweepingly ambitious movie that, alas, takes too long making its point, and far less effort in doing something meaty with the opportunities given to it.
07/01/07
Mind-bogglingly, there’s virtually no swordplay for the first two hours; when Keith Richards shows up for his soused cameo, the visual joke hangs in the air.
06/30/07
Buoyed by luck, comedy and state-of-the-art special effects, it has not only survived the journey intact, it's also washed down its decks, ready for a whole new cycle of movies to begin.
