Okay, I'll say it. I loved the movie!
Sure, there were extraneous scenes that could've gone away without hurting the whole. I didn't care for the multiple Jacks, but they did help set up the great entrance of Jack and the Pearl. The Tia Dalma/Calypso supbplot begged either exclusion or expansion, and I don't think the movie could've survived expansion.
Overall, though, I was happy with the resolutions given. Setting the Elizabeth/Will story up as the beginning what would become a great tragic sea tale satisfies my sense of the romantic. The maelstrom battle was wonderfully epic. And I think this was one of the best movie weddings ever!
I may be a sap, but I'm a happy sap!
see you at the zoo
