Not recommended

Rating: 2/10 (17 July 2006)

I was such a fan of the first "Pirates". I saw it many times in the theatre and I also purchased the DVD. I've been waiting a long time for the second one to come out and to say the least, I am disappointed. Too much CGI. The ending was horrible. No plot. The writers ruined the characters integrity. I will not see this movie again nor will I anticipate the third installment. I cannot recommend this movie to anyone who was a fan of the first film because it does not contain the silly carefree characters we came to love. This is almost an entirely different movie with different characters (even though they are the same actors). No wonder attendance dropped more than half the second weekend.
