Inspired by everything from Jaws to Indiana Jones, the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie was a huge hit that led to immediate fan demand for a sequel. The first sequel was released in 2006 and, although it received markedly more mixed reviews than the original movie, Dead Man’s Chest was a huge success at the box office. The third movie in the original Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, At World’s End, was released a year later, bringing back the primary cast of the first two movies for a final wrap-up. more

Commander Norrington was only ever intended to appear in the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie, but then his actor impressed test audiences.

Although the first movie’s Norrington is an insufferable by-the-book military man, Davenport gives him a surprising depth and makes the potentially cartoonish figure surprisingly involving, particularly in his last scene wherein he accepts that Elizabeth has chosen Will over him. Throughout the sequels, he falls into disgrace and eventually becomes the lackey of trilogy villain Cutler Beckett before betraying the baddie and sacrificing himself to save Elizabeth and her crew. Each Pirates of the Caribbean sequel had its problems, but Norrington’s character evolution is one of the more positive instances of a character growing more complex and interesting as the series progresses.

Commander Norrington was a memorable supporting star in the first three installments of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, which makes it surprising that the character was originally only intended to appear in the first film. Released in 2003, the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie The Curse of the Black Pearl was a surprise success for Disney and its director, The Ring helmer Gore Verbinski. An instant classic, The Curse of the Black Pearl won over audiences and critics alike with its swashbuckling action, witty dialogue, and surprisingly effective scares.

While the meeting continues, Davy Jones arrives onboard the Black Pearl, to confront Tia Dalma. He angrily asks her why she did not meet him on his one day ashore, and Dalma simply replies that it is her nature. She momentarily reverts Jones back to his human form, promising to give him her heart when she is freed. She also vows to turn against the Brethren Court, and show them the full extent of her cruelty. [links]

In the maddening dimension of Davy Jones' Locker, Jack Sparrow is suffering under hallucinations onboard the Black Pearl. He sees multiple versions of himself crewing the ship, but cannot command any of them. He decides to take leave of his visions, and jumps off the ship. He finds himself in a vast, seemingly endless white-sand desert, where he encounters thousands upon thousands of crabs. Under sheer numbers, the crabs lift the Black Pearl and begin rolling it across the dunes, with Jack in pursuit. His former crew have meanwhile made it to the shore of the beach, having survived the fall into the Locker at the cost of the Hai Peng. The crabs retreat to Tia Dalma, just as the Black Pearl crests a nearby dune, Captain Jack Sparrow standing high on its mainmast.

With the water and the rum gone, the situation aboard the Black Pearl is becoming dire. Jack continues to experience hallucinations, during which he begins to form a plan to kill Davy Jones and captain the Flying Dutchman himself, thus ensuring immortality. He receives inspiration, and is able to decipher the charts ("Up is Down"). He lures the crew into rocking the ship, tipping it upside down in the water just as the sun sets in the Locker. The Black Pearl is transported back into the land of the living at sunrise, where the crew immediately pull out their guns in a tense stand-off. Barbossa informs Jack that the Brethren Court is gathering, though Sparrow is adamant he will not be attending. He assures Barbossa he will not be returning to the Locker, and attempts to shoot him… finding that his pistol has become water logged and will not fire. The rest of the crew have suffered the same setback, and are forced to cooperate. Will locates a fresh water spring on a nearby island, to which the crew sails. more

Will and Elizabeth during their one day.

[binarysecurity]

Elizabeth and her new crew are locked in the brig of the Flying Dutchman while the Empress is towed behind. Elizabeth encounters William "Bootstrap Bill" Turner (Stellan Skarsgård), who has fallen into a state of madness, able only to recall his name, and that Will promised to free him. He manages to identify Elizabeth as the girl his son loves, and despairs that Will would never choose to bind himself to the Flying Dutchman and free his father, when he could remain with Elizabeth. He lapses back into insanity, forgetting the conversation completely, stating only that Will is coming for him. here

Like the second movie, AT WORLD’S END is determined to give audiences their money’s worth. And it does, especially in the gigantic action piece at the end, which ties the loose ends together in a Christian allegory of sacrifice and redemption. Although the movie’s Christian metaphors are clear, the movie also includes references to paganism and piracy, but these negative elements are ultimately handled delicately.

[racerx]

The movie’s positive qualities could have been helped, however, by more direct allusions to God, Jesus Cross and/or Christianity. Because of that lack, MOVIEGUIDE® advises strong caution for AT WORLD’S END, even though, in the end, Walt Disney, Jerry Bruckheimer and Gore Verbinski have given moviegoers a very entertaining thrill ride with some characters you can feel good about rooting for as well as have fun with and some uplifting themes that may lead some people to the redemptive power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Only Jesus can save you from both death and damnation.
