Pretty good, with some Flaws...

Rating: 7/10 (3 October 2009)

I love Pirates of the Caribbean. It's one of my favorite trilogies. Even so, that doesn't mean they are perfect. There were a few things I didn't get.
The romance between Will and Elizabeth was good at first, but towards the end, it's almost like Elizabeth was falling in love with Jack Sparrow instead. Why? Personally, if I were her, I would have chosen Will over Jack any day. SPOILER: Why did she kiss Jack at the end, handcuffs him to the ship, then doesn't even look at Will and lets him think the kiss was for real?? Why did she do that? Also, they didn't really make it clear why Jack and Davy Jones were constantly negotiating. Why does Davy Jones want his soul? I didn't really understand it.
Other than all that weirdness, I thought the rest was pretty cool. Jack Sparrow once again serves as a great comic relief for the movie. The action was as gripping as the first. The animation was great! The new villains, Davy Jones and his crew of barnacle-encrusted fish people, are very creative and it was fun to see all the action they provided. I also enjoyed the sequences of the Kraken destroying ships and bringing them down to the depths of the ocean.
In my opinion, its a great movie, with some weirdness and gross- out moments, but it's great nonetheless.
