the Black Pearl and the Flying Dutchman really kicked ass!

Yen and I went to watch the last chapter of the Pirates of the Carribean series. So, Captain Jack Sparrow does not only dies, but he returns. You may be thinking, geez, it seems that everyone who dies in the film seems to come back. Barbosa died in the first part from being killed by Jack. He came back at the end of part two. It was definitely a good movie and this completes the saga. No more long waits. Though there is an open ended ending, so not sure if there will be any spin-offs.

It was a 2 1/2 hrs movie and we caught the 9pm show. We had dinner at Manhattan Fish Market, Yen and I tried the Pollock this time instead of having the usual platter. It was just nice considering I had a full banana leaf rice lunch. Not a bad place, Grand City in PJ, directly opposite University Hospital. Do check it out. It's air conditioned, which is a plus point!

So, back to the movie. This time it was not as funny as the other characters did not share the same witty and quick response that Jack comes up with. It was a little slow in the beginning of the show. After a while, once the pace caught up when Jack was back on the screen, it really started to kick off. I mean, it isn't the same without Jack Sparrow. Johnny Depp got the facial expressions spot on and each time he got onto the camera, you know you can expect something funny. Can't say the same for Chow Yeun Fatt though. His character Sao Feng was more of a side character, who does not make it to the halfway point of the film. Unfortunately, being an Asian movie star, does not give you the option of coming back just like Barbosa or Jack Sparrow.

To top it all off, the Black Pearl and the Flying Dutchman really kicked ass! I shall not dwell more in case some of you have not caught the film, no spoilers will be posted.
