Despite missing the second sequel of this movie, the third one as really impacting as the story goes on to tell more about the Flying Dutchman.

Chow Yuen Fatt starrs as the Chinese pirate with the legendary Chinese symbol of power, dragon tattooed on the right of his shaven head. He certainly has aged a lot and still as suave as ever in this role. For the first time in Hollywood movies, he’s co-starring…savvy!

Johnny Depp has gotten more cool this time with his silly movements such as the attempt to drag his vessel on hard ground, which some stone crab colony helped him to move it into the water after the crew with Keira Knightly were swept ashore.

Make up effects were more cool as they showed Orlando Bloom (Turner’s) dad being encased in the vessel with a starfish stuck on his head, mosses and barnacles sticking out from his chin…it sure look alittle gross but that’s what grows in the deep marine life.

Keira Knightly was voted as Pirate King by all the 9 pirate lords; each pirate lord casted a vote for themselves but Johnny Depp casted one more for Keira which deemed her as the Pirate King…her oriental-style pirate costume looks really cool with all those embroidery, letter studs and small hood across her shoulders.

The most stunning appearance of the Flying Dutchman, a cursed ship, is how it charges out of the water from the deeps of seas, with the decayed wood around the vessel, moss-soiled sails and barnacle and coral-infested triple cannons and
Johnny’s “extra” appeared as the moss-engulfed and semi decomposed body from within the walls of the prison which he was in, and took out his brain which was bobbling in his exposed skull…a pretty good special effect done which has been so realistically gross...his silly phrase “nobody moves. I just dropped my brain” when he was searching for his brain that he took out from his exposed skull…gruesome…the “brain” looks like some jelly stuff…haha…

Well…Orlando become the next Captain for Flying Dutchman when he was killed by the octopusy-faced captain David Jones whose heart was pierced and he died, which Orlando’s dad took his son’s heart out and place it in the chest for him to be revived as the new Captain for Flying Dutchman. Every Captain for Flying Dutchman’s heart will be kept in this chest (should be called Dead Man’s chest in second sequel) and they will sail for eternity.

So much for the review…the movie was definitely a great one…worth watching for those who likes pirates…voyages, sea and cannons.

Live on, Pirates of the Carribean!
