I can continue

This film finally reached the fourth episode (laughing). When the Eight-Power Allied Forces went to wipe out the pirates last time, my sister was really worried about it (who deserves to be a person living in the second element). Big eyeliner, big turban, twisting, fussing Captain Jack Sparrow spent these years defeating those legendary figures that have been passed down for a hundred years, and become synonymous with "pirates" in our century-although I think he is more suitable Be a spokesperson for waterproof eyeliner/eye shadow.

Finally getting rid of Elizabeth and Will, the pair of idiotic men and women, Captain Jack returned with one piece and embarked on a new journey. In fact, there are many stories handed down from the golden age of pirates during the Battle of England and the West. The author of the pirates used it very carefully. Although Davy Jones and "Flying Dutchman" were combined, they were told two episodes in total, which is not a disadvantage. In this one, the story of the Mermaid, Blackbeard, and Bu Laoquan was combined into one. It was too heavy to start. It was obvious that for the sake of the successful return of the captain, he could not take care of it for the time being.

According to current popularity, IV is made into a 3D version. I personally think that other films might be able to do it this way, but the pirates have always been dark in tone, and there is always a feeling of "not real" after being made into 3D. The effects of the action scenes have not been done much. Basically, it can be said that 3D is a bit wasteful.
The familiar Black Pearl (only one model) and its crew (except Gibbs) did not show up. I felt that the sister who was chasing it down was "this captain is not the captain"-neither on Black Pearl nor chasing after him. Jack Sparrow, who runs around the world with Black Pearl, is not the captain in our minds.
The Blackbeard's "Queen of Vengeance" is not enough. According to the legend of Blackbeard, this ship should be decorated with human bones to taste enough-but Blackbeard himself looked evil enough.

The above is the look and feel of the hardware.

In terms of software, the most interesting thing is the interaction between the captain's strange personality and the long-standing ocean expedition.

Pirates of the Caribbean will be successful at the beginning because Jack’s image is neither a traditional hero nor an orthodox pirate. He is more like an "evil version of Peter Pan"-selfish, cunning, and treacherous, but will not abandon his partner. Easily escape from the ship and rescue the weak without hurting yourself. This image transcends gender. On the one hand, it is like the impression that the sea gives to the voyager-there are both generous treasures and ruthless storms that take everything and only reward when he is happy. On the other hand, he has neither parents nor lovers. He just loves to blow. The sea breeze on the sail of the Black Pearl transforms the image of a pirate from a "treasure hunter" to a "freedom seeker", which is naturally more suitable for the appetite of modern people.

So the most unsuitable thing for Captain Jack Sparrow in this world is "infatuation"-you can like, you can love, you can stand, but you can't be foolish. Originally, I was very worried about what he and Cruz would do in this movie. Fortunately, the screenwriters are still very reliable-the jumping off the cliff first did not jump and pushed the woman to the front, but later found that the black beard was really a tiger poisonous predator and I was sorry that the intercalary girl screamed and took the initiative to jump. Go on, and finally put yourself, abandoned, hurt, and saved a life-saving crush, and put it on the desert island according to the rules of pirates. This is really what Captain Jack can do.

Captain Jack loves only one thing-black pearls, and only one thing infatuated-sailing. This thing + this thing = freedom. We are happy to see that the captain is always free, always evil, and always Peter Pan. This is what a fairy tale should do-let the audience keep their illusions. In this era, we no longer need the illusion of "Prince and princess are always locked in a castle, and there are many children who cannot be raised." The illusion of creating a legend one after another".

If the captain is lonely occasionally, he still has Hector~~~ The relationship between these two people develops into an IV like an old man and an old wife, and the other party will know whether he is going to shit or fart when he pushes his ass. There is almost no major conflict of interest this time, and it is rare to cooperate seamlessly, which can be described as an "invincible combination." If Jack's children are still a little naive, Hector's sophisticated sophistication just makes up for it, and what Jack gives him back is unlimited creativity. If there is a V, I hope these two interact more-don't kill each other (again).

Penelope Cruz, who replaced Elizabeth to add femininity to this movie, successfully completed the task-her clothes are all prettier than Elizabeth! Did you deliberately use a waistcoat? You must have disliked that KK has no chest before, the costumer! The screenwriter of the pirate didn't know the trauma of childhood. The people in this series all had Electra very serious, so I won't comment on the motives of the beauties. Compared to El, this one is of course more match with the captain, and I can see that she still loves the captain (unfortunately). I don't know if Cruz will fix a few episodes~~~ She and JD are quite good.

Compared with the previous ones, another big change in this one is that the director was replaced by Rob Marshall. It is said that Gore Verbinski was unable to arrange time due to the Rango collision. Personally, I prefer GV's style-there is a sense of humor that is colder to the direction of jokes. RM doesn't feel humorous at all-even if it does, it's very dry. There are many moments—for example, Cruz said, "I think you are the only pirate I can't imitate."—you can become THE moment, as long as you take a few sissy actions of Captain Jack at the same time, you can make a laugh. , RM all missed! As for the action scenes, he seems to be slower when his weapon touches the flesh. Although there are many scenes of short-term combat, there seems to be no one that can give people an intense feeling of "fighting". If there is a V, please find GV back...

PS: The reason why the Spanish can't find Laoquan is too cute! That arrogant and pure one~~~ This should be the biggest burden of the whole movie.

PSS: My sister likes this series very much. The nautical adventure stories are very loving, but most of them involve the love of life and death. I hope the captain and the Black Pearl can continue to sail...
