Popcorn entertainer to the hilt 

Story: Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) returns in the fourth film, all set for a new adventure, one that he is forced to undertake by the delectable woman from his passionate past. His former love interest, Angelica (Penelope Cruz) abducts him and forces him on to a perilous journey with her father, the vile Captain Blackbeard (Ian McShane) to find the famed fountain of youth. The pirates ship is doggedly followed by the King of England's privateers... who else but ex-pirate Captain Barbosa (Geoffrey Rush) who has his own private revenge story, spurring him on. The swordplay and the wordplay are easy for Jack to handle, but can he cope with the stirrings of love again.... 

Movie Review: Jack Sparrow is in super form. This time, Johnny Depp takes the iconic character and transforms it into a total prankster who sets you smiling with everything he does, or doesn't do. Of special note is his super ability to stay out of trouble... he's hardly in the middle of a fight, assiduously avoids violence, prefers wordplay to swordplay and follows just one line: the least line of resistance. His entire body language, his dialogue rendition and his sassy attitude make him a mesmerizing screen presence. Of course, he's brawny and brave too, but only when the situation desperately demands machismo.

But Sparrow isn't there alone to hold your interest. There's Penelope Cruz who adds oomph and sparkle as the wannabe nun-turned-vixen, with a wild fire burning within. The flashy chemistry between Cruz and Depp literally makes the screen crackle and hiss. Add to this the colourful bunch of other characters -- Barbosa, Blackbeard, the clergyman, the good and bad mermaids --and you have enough to keep the clock ticking.

Of course, like the rest of the films in the franchise, this one too could have been shorter and does tend to drag in places. But remember, there's the legendary Jack Sparrow to revv up the drama whenever it slackens. A little low on action, Pirates 4 makes up with its wit and humour.
Go, have fun.
