Pirates Part 3

Is it necessary to really say much about this film? Is it possible?
Obviously one of the scurvy crew stole the plot and substituted the complexities of Wacky Races. Once the jokes about Knightly's anatomy are out of the way, it's basically a series of stunts and a mindboggling continuous series of double crosses which as far as I could see make as much sense as episode 2 did... or less.
The effects are very funny. Depp and Bloom probably keep the girls happy and Knightly manages the neat trick of drying immediately she gets out of the water thus spoiling the pretty girl/wet clothes schtick.
I guess people would say it's a theme park ride of a film. I never go to theme parks.
I actually enjoyed it as long as my brain was turned off as the story weaves as much as Keith Richards on the way to the stage.

Pirates Part 2 was excruciatingly bad. Depp's character was a cartoon---an annoying cartoon. I was kinda bummed since I liked the original POTC.

  Damn relatives staying with us for Christmas gave it to me as a present and insisted we watch it. What a Godawful mess. Nodded off for about 1/3 of it, discreetly of course. I will sure as Hell miss 3. Loved 1.
  
  Do I have to spell it out?

  ... Muttley.
  I would wait for a wet Sunday afternoon and watch it at home.
  It is pure cartoon. And at 2 3/4 hours a very long one.
