In the closing credits, we learn the movie is "suggested by" the novel by Tim Powers, but apparently it was actually scripted by a mechanical plot-twist generating device. By far the worst plot twists are at the end, setting up the inevitable sequels.
You know, there was a time, early on in this series, that Geoffrey Rush as Barbossa could hold my full attention just by eating an apple and waxing poetic about his inability to taste anything. Now I don't give a damn when Ian McShane's Black Beard waves his hands and makes the rigging fly around capturing everyone. All flash, no character, even for the characters who used to have character.

You're misremembering. Legolas was the one who had his heart cut out.
This, from the guy who watches no movies.
Time for my victory gin.
Ah, yes, that is true. I thought Orlando Bloom put the knife in Johnny Depp's hand and stabbed Davy Jones' heart. You're right, it was the other way around.
In my defense, it's easier to remember when you only watch a few movies. I've seen a couple thousand or so movies since then.
