Review Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006)


Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

The Good:
The special effects were great. The subtle touches like Davy Jones' beard made his character "real".
The fight scenes were good and touched with humor.
The acting was decent.

The Bad:
I was not into the plot at all.
The characters seemed more 2D in this film.
I started wondering, "When will this end?"
It is a complete setup for a sequel, couldn't stand alone.
They reveal too much to the audience during the film.

Overall: Well, honestly I say watch the first film again instead. This one is just not on par with it.

*Special thanks to my buddy Dan Anderson for letting me borrow the film.*

Yeah, we have this in our queue because we've never bothered to see it...can't say I'm too excited. Still, time is never wasted if Johnny Depp is onscreen...

I gotta go with A. on this - love me some Depp. Especially when he's playing something weird - and this guy is especially weird.
