Ian McShane is pretty good as Blackbeard, though he doesn't really compare to anything Bill Nighy or Geoffrey Rush did in the original trilogy.

The efforts that are made aren't very committed.Īs a standalone sequel, which is essentially what this film is, On Stranger Tides is far from awful. I never connected to anyone in On Stranger Tides because the writing never makes a considerable effort to flesh out the characters. William's sacrifice feels earned because we've been with these characters for a few films. One of the reasons At World's End is a much better film is because there are stakes in that film.
