When I first herd they were making a fourth Pirates film I figured thought: "Ok, they are trying to rake in some more cash by making anther installment to a popular series of films. Its probably going to be bad but I guess I'll go watch this ship sink anyway." After seeing the film though I was quite surprised at how well it turned out. Though it is not nearly as strong as The Curse Of The Black Pearl I still enjoyed "Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides".
Like the the other Pirates films it has a lot of action sequences though sadly the humor did not come out as well as it had in the previous films. The weakest point of On Stranger Tides was the new additions to the cast, The majority of the new characters did not see to be as developed as the ones from the previous films.
On the positive side, Barbossa still plays a sort of rival to Jack as he did in At World's End. I still feel that out of the three main pirate villains(Barbossa, Davy Jones,and Blackbeard) Barbossa was the best villain of the series, so I'm glad they kept him around.
So when it comes to deciding weather or not to see this in theaters, I would say if your a big fan of the series and have seen the rest it theater then why break tradition. However if you didn't care the for the others so much then you may want to wait until its out on rental.
(I give "Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" a 4 out of 5)
