Long but entertaining second sequel to the extremely popular "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies. It is also probably the best of the series.

Rating: 8/10 (5 June 2007)

Will (Orlando Bloom), Elizabeth (Keira Knightley) and the resurrected Captain Barbossa (Oscar-Winner:Geoffery Rush) tries to help escape Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Deep) from the land of the dead. Now they must faced their enemies, Davey Jones (Bill Nighy), Lord Culter Beckett (Tom Hollander) and Norrington (Jack Davenport). Beckett is now in control of Jones' heart and they form a dark alliance to rule the sea and destroying every pirate in sight. Now Jack, Barbossa, Will, Elizabeth, Tia Dalma (Noamie Harris) and the crew call go see the Pirate Lords from the four corners of the world. Including the infamous Soa Fong (Chow-Yun Fat) for help. The pirate lords wants to release the goddess Calypso, Danny Jones' damned lover. Which they wants to trip her out of fear and Pirate Lords needs to combine the nine special pieces to release her by starting a ritual. With the power of Calyspo, the pirates all stand together to face a final showdown with their powerful enemies.
Directed by Gore Verbinski (Mouse Hunt, The Ring "2002", The Weather Man) made an amusing, fantasy, action-adventure with plenty of humour and excitement. Deep is amusing as ever in the lead role. Oscar-Winner:Rush is a nice return as Captain Barbossa also. Chow-Yun Fat is good in a small supporting role. This has excellent production designs, spectacular visual effects and an enchaining cast. This film is an improvement over the complicated second film and Probably even better than the first film. The movie is long to be sure but entertaining just the same with an eye-popping climax. Keith Richards from "The Rolling Stones" appears in a fun cameo as Jack Sparrow's father. Written by Ted Elliot (Aladdin, The Puppet Masters, Shrek) and Terry Rossio (Deja Vu, The Mask of Zorro, Small Soldiers). Super 35. (****/*****).
