It wasn't that this movie was bad...

Rating: 5/10 (16 August 2006)

It just lacked what we all thought it could bring to the table. I don't think this movie was bad but after seeing the first, the unusual role Johnny Depp created, the insane hype of the second film and the general hype of the movie itself we as the audience expected sooo much more. Though more of what? It had great battle scenes, comedy, mild horror and romance, so what was it really missing? To this day I don't know, but I do know that more often than not people were harshly disappointed in it. A part of it for me was the numerous references to the first one, whether it be the dog with the keys, the "CAPTAIN jack sparrow", the midget (I'm not being critical of the midget but they used him for comedy to the point where it was like, 'are we laughing AT him or with him?') They tried too hard to make the movie funny. The best parts of the movie was the introduction of Mr. Turner, Davy Jones' role and the cliffhanger at the end. It wasn't worth the wait, definitely not worth 10.50 and REALLY not worth sitting for 3 hours in those painfully structured seats.
