Despite the title, I must first say, I like the movie. Not a single dislike in it because i know... or i can guess... why people do not prefer this pirate other than pirate 1,2 and 3... i mean, i remember asking one of my colleagues... who hath not watch 1,2,3 but watched this straight.... she actually thinks that this movie is quite good... why? But comments, tweets, feedbacks are saying it's bad compare to the first three... that's when i felt unfair.. i mean.. dont compare please? it's a totally different storyline and a different setting....
Well, i suppose i've made my point already? If i have not though, i have some examples further down... well... after the mermaid of course.... of why you should like it and i also guessed why you might have hated it...



I'll go straight to the point...
Why Like It? Or rather, how to make you start liking it when you aren't preferring it.
1) It's a new story.. not really a sequel but we have had enough of Turner and Swann's love story....
2) Treat it something like the lord of the rings. Since this movie, journeys, explores and finds a target. And in some scenes i actually felt it look like LOTR...
3) Mermaids... i think you know why...
4) Jack Sparrow.. i think you know why too...
5) Penelope Cruz (for some guys perhaps)
6) Humor
7) New storyline

Now as for why people will actually not prefer this than the previous... not really hate it but... not prefer...
1) more land, less sea.. for a pirate movie that would seem... not particular..
2) more cowards, less gunshots and swords and battles of the ships...
3) Zombies.. wtf?
4) No more Orlando Bloom (for many girls perhaps)
5) No more Kiera Knightly (for some guys perhaps? she's pouting after all)
6) lame jokes at parts...
7) predictable ending...


That should be it.... anymore of why the likes/dislikes shall be in my comments.. by YOU....

Anyway, to me, it's a good movie... because i see it as a new one... not totally related to the first three (except the cut map/chart)... but rather a quest.... much like lord of the rings...marching for the fountain of youth... but i still prefer the sea.... it's still a pirate movie anyway.... it feels kinda low budget compared to the last one.... but... like i said... we should not compare at all... i'd say we give them a chance... aye? drink up me hearties Yo-Ho!
