Pirates of the Carribean 3 is an awful film

[Jeff Lebowski]

What a horrible excuse for a movie. I want that three hours back. (OK, maybe 1.5 hours if you subtract the time I slept and the last 1/2 hr that I left the room from boredom).

I had heard it was bad, but one of my kids wanted to see it so we rented it. Big mistake.

Three was bad, but at least it didn't drag that badly.

Plus, Keira Knightley is hot. That makes it better.

Crap. I liked 1, didn't really get into 2 and I think my wife bought 3 for Christmas. Maybe we can take it back... I'll hope my parents buy it, so we can watch theirs and know it sucks and take it back.

Ocean's 11 was a great flick. So many good one liners, little things that you catch each time you watch it; it still gets better with each watch. I enjoyed 12, although it was clearly not at the same level as 11. Not even close. But I was able to enjoy it for what it was, a film made by guys (and girls) who had fun doing it. 13 was much better than 12, although still short of 11. Although I will say I enjoyed 13 more the second time I watched it than the first.

Agreed. X2 was the best of the three, although I liked X3 about as much as I liked X1. I think the X-men series played out better in the movies than the Spiderman series did. Of course, I'm not a comic book fan much, so take it with a grain of salt. Plus Jean Gray was much hotter than Mary Jane or whatever Kristen Dunst name was in those movies.
