I was sorta let down, to be honest

Rating: 6/10 (10 July 2006)

The movie let me down. I love pirates. I LOVED the first film. But this one just didn't have the energy or the excitement tied into anything. It was sporadic and sometimes just boring.
To give it credit, the CGI was amazing, and the fight scenes were incredible.
But the plot! Oh, the plot was lacking in almost all aspects. It just didn't seem like the actors were excited about being in it.
I certainly hope that the next one will be much better.
But I do recommend seeing it, regardless of how I felt about it. It is, after all, a movie about pirates with Johnny Depp.
