Hi, Amanda!
A It was great to hear from you! Actually, Itaskve seen a really good film recently - Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worldtasks End. ff s a brilliant action- packed adventure film!
В In the film, Will, Elizabeth and Barbossa are on a quest to rescue Captain Jock Sparrow (played by Johnny Depp) and release the sea goddess Calypso to destroy a ship called The Flying Dutchman. The plot is thrilling with lots of twists and turns and the special effects are excellent.
