Animation isn't a genre" like Westerns, film noir, romance or horror, Gore Verbinski was saying. "It's just a technique for telling a story. So when the man behind the hugely popular "Pirates of the Caribbean" series decided to make his first animated feature, his biggest concern wasn't about the process of animation but about the process of storytelling.

'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides' Allderdice and Carnegie Mellon grad Rob Marshall took over directing duties from Gore Verbinski for the fourth installment of this highly successful franchise. Unfortunately, the results are more of the same. Marshall's film has a set of cunning characters, including Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow, clashing in a collection of action-packed scenes in a movie that feels thrown together. Like the past adventures, "On Stranger Tides" fails in its storytelling, offering a limited plot that's just confusing. It does make more sense than the second and third films, but not by a long shot. Sparrow is being held captive on a ship being steered by the infamous Blackbeard (Ian McShane). An old flame of Sparrow and the daughter of Blackbeard, Angeli...
Personally, I cannot recall a lot of folks walking out of Gore Verbinski's gargantuan 169-minute, eye-popping, exhausting 2007 Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World's End? which if you remember arrived in theatres less than a year after the equally draining 151-minute Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest?saying: "Damn, I really haven't had enough of these massively overstuffed movies based upon an eight-minute theme park attraction. I hope they make some more! Especially since On Stranger Tides commits the strategic error of attempting to make [Jack Sparrow] the protagonist, instead of his usual role as a wild-card on the sidelines. Jettisoning the (dull) protagonists Orlando Bloom and Kiera Knightley, Sparrow's now saddled with the gravitas of a tragic history and conflicted motiva...
The news Friday that Disney was hitting the stop button on a planned reboot of "Lone Ranger" with Johnny Depp was greeted by a chorus of surprised reactions around Hollywood, followed by tentative explanations. In Depp, director Gore Verbinski and producer Jerry Bruckheimer, Disney had a team that had collaborated on three "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies. And they had a title that was immediately identifiable to an older generation, expanding an audience for a film that could already play well to the youth crowd. In the era of big-budget filmmaking, this was the form par excellence, from the studio that practiced it as often and as well as anyone else.
Me gustaría pasar el resto de mi vida haciendo películas de piratas; estoy filmando en este momento la tercera parte de la trilogía de Pirates of the Caribbean y puedo decir que han sido los años más felices que he tenido desde que comencé mi carrera dentro del cine", respondió el actor Johnny Depp a la pregunta con la que se inició la entrevista, antes del estreno de la película Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. (El estreno fue la seamana pasada.) "Siempre he sido un actor muy metódico en lo que hago, por eso trato de seguir al pie de la letra las instrucciones que me dan los directores con los que trabajo", expresó Johnny con actitud seria. "Pero con alguien como [Gore Verbinski] todo fue muy distinto desde que me ofreció hacer el papel de Sparrow; dijo que tendría una tota...
No obstante, cabe reconocer que sí hay aspectos que han mejorado con el paso de las películas y los años: el primero es la labor del director, Gore Verbinski, que en At World's End ofrece algunas de las secuencias visualmente más gratificantes de la trilogía (como esa introducción de Sparrow alucinando en medio del desierto o la batalla final en medio de un inmenso remolino); y el segundo es el trabajo musical del equipo liderado por el compositor alemán Hans Zimmer, quien en esta tercera parte consigue algunas de las mejores melodías del año (Zimmer aparece en los extras del DVD explicando su estilo de trabajar y cómo se enfrentó al reto de resultar original una vez más; también habla de cómo Verbinski le ayudó en la interpretación a guitarra de uno de los temas). At World's End llega ...
AWE is a lukewarm maelstrom of secret agendas, double crossings, tricky alliances, back stabbings, familial complications, romantic entanglements, political conspiracies, warring factions, hidden gods, cheeky monkeys, and excessive eyeliner-some of which is linked to events from the previous installments, some of which is freshly pulled out of the collective ass of director Gore Verbinski and writers Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, and none of which is the least bit captivating or, by and large, comprehensible. [...] by plunging their vessel over a watery precipice, they are damply landed on a tropical beach upon which legions of industrious crabs, neatly hatched from smooth white stones, are hustling the Black Pearl ship overland to meet the rescue party.
Despite the dull box-office forecast for dark, cynical movies starring Nicolas Cage, the concept itself seems to have found a comfortable place in modern cinema. The Weatherman, the most recent attempt at an artfully dramatic portrayal of human weirdness, casts a definitive shadow of sorrow and quirk that not many would like to find themselves under. However, once you get past the initial tenderness of it all, it turns out to be a sharply comical, emotional and visual gem. In this anti-thriller drama, directed by the semi-legendary Gore Verbinski, Cage portrays David Spritz, a 40-something divorced weatherman for a local news station in Chicago. His ex-wife, Noreen (Hope David), has become the primary parent during the frequent periods of absence by David. Like many other movie dads thr...
