I enjoyed it.

I thought the third was a bit over the top. But it did succeed on a couple of levels. This one didn't focus so much on the ridiculous over the top sea battles. There were big sword fights, but it's a fucking pirate movie. I thought the character development was solid, except for the Missionary who could have been given a more central role, but whatever.

Also, Barbosa was pure awesome. He as a Privateer was hilarious, but his actions implied that he was pure Pirate. In fact, his motivation behind being a Privateer made him more badass. His ending was definitely fan service for the series.
