But if they did, then it probably would look a lot like what Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales looks like on the screen, which is absolutely stunning. But, stunning visuals don't always equate to just-as-impressive 3D, which means it's time for us to put Captain Jack Sparrow's latest adventure through one of our favorite evaluations: to 3D, or not to 3D? It's time to look at Disney's latest pleasure cruise through a pair of black and gray tinted glasses, as we figure out if this latest boondoggle is worth your 3D money, or if you'd be better off buying a nice bottle of rum and a natty tri-corner hat.
If you're curious about what we thought about the movie, you can read our official review here. In the meantime, we'll sail for that special horizon of third dimensional delights, and see where this latest adventure takes us! Some of you are probably hiding in fear at the mention of a Pirates of the Caribbean film in 3D, and we can't blame you.
However, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales exists in a more refined era of 3D, and as such, this film's visuals are lovingly tailored to a spectacle full of 3D delights. Even better, the film's IMAX 3D presentation takes full advantage of the format, with a specially formatted full screen vision. This is one of the clearest, most impressive 3D showings I've ever been to, even with the film's slight issue with brightness.
There's no ghosting, no wonk to this presentation, and everything is where it should be. For a series that has experimented with native 3D, Pirates of the Caribbean has made up for its previous misstep with a well crafted third dimensional enhancement.
However, I've talked to several people who assumed that's what this movie was about. I've only seen the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie, but having seen the Ask a Ninja review of 3 and consequently 2 I feel I can say without fear of contradiction that this is a better movie than any of those. About an hour into the movie, after the big awards ceremony you'll know what I mean , there's a bit of a lull in the action.
That's probably the best time to pop out. The 3D is excellent and really brings the models alive. This kind of claymation stop-animation is tailor-made for 3D effects, giving the figures more solidity.
I saw the movie in a theater using passive 3D technology, which is my preference. Active 3D doesn't provide any discernibly better quality, but can all too easily go out of sync, ruining the 3D effects. Measure content performance. Develop and improve products.
