After the triology, myself (and not even the producers) thought about coming up with a new venture of this franchisee. Hence, I was surprised but not amused when I heard of the part 4. However, when I came to know that the movie would be shot itself using 3D technology (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disney_Digital_3-D) rather than implying 3D at post production; this is where my interest began to came. I have been fan of the special effects of POCrbn franchise and seeing those in 3d were was my biggest interest rather than the plot itself. I mean when the story has finished why would you create another one unnecessarily?!
Its not that I have not seen fantasy 3D movies lately (Narnya being the latest one) but wanted to check out how shooting a movie in 3d itself makes a difference. So...with all these prejudices when I started watching the movie, all of them came true.
The movie shots were definitely 3d-ily effective where the depth between objects was very peculiar and distinctive. It was evident that both cinematography and direction were done keeping 3d in mind - in general terms, absolute pleasure for eyes.
Apart from this, unfortunately, very critically speaking...the movie is waste in terms of plot and story. There was no mention of Keira's character at all while the heroic crew of Captain Barbosa was completely absent. Our own Jack Sparrow (there is a caption somewhere in between) seemed bit weak as compared to his character while more humorous at times. The 3d effect made Penelope Cruze look at her own age; I mean..she definitely look older than the character she is playing. The intention of 3d is to make look everything realistic..right?!
For me..it is '2.5/5' where all the points are because of awesome 3d effects whether it is long shots, deep shots, close shots and rapid movement shots. I am going for a complele package when I am going to see a movie ..a mere presentation without content won't effect me too much! Sorry!
