Boring

Rating: 4/10 (17 July 2006)

Good lord, that was tedious.
This needed to be at least 30 minutes shorter. It went on forever, and without nearly enough plot (or even kooky hijinks) to justify the length.
The entire island cannibals segment could have been cut without any detriment to the plot, which would have spared me having to see Johnny Depp nibbling on a fungus laden toe. The special effects portraying Davy Jones's crew were (I suppose admirably, if you're into that sort of thing) gross, leaving me spending much of the movie thinking nothing other than "Ewww!"
Even the few enjoyable parts went on for so long that all the fun was sucked out of them. The Sparrow/Turner/Norrington fight was a hoot, for the first, oh... maybe ten minutes. My god, by the end, I was rooting for the wheel.
This movie was about as enjoyable as having my teeth cleaned. Not actually painful, but certainly uncomfortable, and I kept wondering if it was almost over yet.
