The 3rd Pirates Of The Caribbean could have been 2 hrs or less. My God it was a long one. I walked out of the living room and didn’t even finish it.

The 12 yr old loved it, though.

The next two are shorter, so that’s good.

When is a film franchise large enough? I think PotC could have stopped after two movies and tied it up with a bow.

But I know people who love the franchise. Just not me.

Though Keira Knightley is an amazing actor, but for more than 2 1/2+ hrs, no thanks.
