very well done and better than the first one

Rating: 10/10 (26 September 2006)

I have the habit (good or bad, you decide) to watch more than once the movies I really like - it happened with Singin' in the rain, Sunset Blvd, The Others and more - and it happened also with this one. I've seen it three times and I wasn't bored (maybe I'm crazy, who knows...) I've watched The Curse of the Black Pearl and Dead Man's Chest one right after the other and in my opinion the last one is way better than the first one. Why? Well, it was funnier, better made, also the plot was better in my opinion, and the soundtrack was really amazing. Someone criticized Hans Zimmer for using almost the same kind of music in every movie he scores, but I don't think it's true, and if it is, well, it works! The actors fit the roles and it seemed like they knew better their characters and felt better playing them. Well, it's true that it didn't have a real end, but I don't find it annoying. It was an entertaining movie, obviously it was not The Godfather, but in its genre it was great. My vote is 8/10. Oh, and sorry if this comment is a bit tedious, but I didn't want to sound like a 13 year old girl who adores Orlando Bloom: in fact I am 18 (and I adore Johnny Depp). :D
