The first part is The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003),the second part is Dead Man's Chest (2006) and the third part World's End (2007). This trilogy has, were a big success and made huge amount of money. The stars of this film Erin ha gain a great publicity. also the other actors. Who participated in this serious of films like Captain Jack Sparrow has become an iconic figures. Who is portrayed by Johnny Depp. This character in particular has a very comic but adventures personality. He is the Pirate Lord of the Caribbean.

They thought. She was a daughter of William Turner. Then Will Turner, a blacksmith and the true son of Bill Turner, who loved Elizabeth. They mad a deal with Jack Sparrow to free him in exchange for helping him to save Elizabeth. So they stool the HMS Interceptor and acquire a crew in Tortuga. They started a whole adventures journey to save the women Will Turner loves, and to gain back the Black Pearl. The film ended with saving the girl, regained the curs on the Black Pearl, Captain Hector Barbossa killed and Jack Sparrow captured. But finally the part one of the trilogy ended happily and captain Jack Sparrow escaped and took the command of his beloved ship the Black Pearl back.

Culter arrested Elizabeth Swann and Will Turner. And threatens to execute them and the ex-Commodore James Norrington for helping Jack Sparrow escaped. But he made a deal with Will Turner to offer a clemency for both of them and his beloved Miss Swann, in return Will has to hunt for Sparrow and his magical compass. So an informant in Tortuga leaded Will to the Black Pearl in on the beach of Pelegosto. Where a cannibal inhabited island where jack and his crew are held captive.

Which unfortunately both Jack Sparrow and ex-Commodore James Norrington also tried to get to it. This was the start of a fearsome competition between them. This ended with James Norrington fooling them all and gain possession of the chest, and Captain Jack Sparrow death.


The final and third part At World's End. After that Lord Cutler Beckett gaining possession of Davy Jones heart and the Flying Dutchman. He gained gaining the control of the Caribbean.

Will proposed to Elizabeth for marriage. They killed davy Jones and defeated the Royal fleet. But destiny hold a different ending for Jack Sparrow, Will and Elizabeth. In the end of this trilogy. Jack lost his ship a gain. Will took Davy Jones place as a Captain of the Flying Dutchman.


My own opinion is the first part of the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy. Is the best one of all of them. It has all the elements of success, like the story, special effect, action a sense of adventure and sense of hummer. That’s why it is very famous. The second part ‘Dead Man's Chest’ was less in its standard than the first part. It was a total different from the Curse of the Black Pearl. It has more action and comedy than a good story crept. But the third part At World's End. Didn’t do very well, actually it was more like an extend for the second one. It had all the elements that make the Pirates of the Caribbean what it is. But it miss the most important part ‘the story’. That is why I think the story scrip was very badly written. They just made so an ending to the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy.

My conclusion that Pirates of the Caribbean parts of the trilogy, was very entertaining but totally not an Oscar winning films. It has a high level of special effects, a sense of hummer, and adventure. But the story is not well written.
