Critics Consensus

POTC: AWE provides the thrilling action scenes, but mixes in too many characters with too many incomprehensible plot threads.

Outlook

What began as a thrilling and engrossing entertainer ends up as a terribly tedious franchisee -- the convoluted plot leaves you more confused than involved.

Gone With The Twins

An epic finale, this overlong, overstuffed film manages to neatly resolve all the loose ends from the previous entry, even if it takes considerable time to do so.

Rated: 5/10

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End is marginally more coherent than last year's sequel-a very small mercy. It is, however, just as bloated, requiring a level of familiarity with both its predecessors.

Bowling Green Daily News

At World's End is nearly three hours long, so it does feel a little padded, but for the most part the film moves at a reasonable pace - even if it almost stumbles to the finish while trying to tie up all the loose ends.

Became entertaining but opening scene included the hanging of a young boy. WTF? This is Disney? What kind of P.O.S. thought that was a good idea? Terrible scene.,,,

prawnda s

the first two were much better, if only specifically because they just keep singing the same dang song over and over and it's annoying even the first time that they sing it. we could have used any other kind of signal but they keep circling back to this song instead. it feels cheap and pointless, and there's already plenty of content here to work with. i wouldn't mind a fan edit where the song was removed, but the film is still watchable. as the critics say: this is definitely overstuffed, as were the first two movies, but they are a lot of fun, have a lot of likeable characters, and that's what matters more than the coherence. unfortunately, this entry is a good hour too long and most of that time is spent trying to establish atmosphere which only gets in the way of the rollercoaster the audience expected.
