Nothing too special.

Rating: 10/10 (25 July 2006)

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest wasn't exactly what I thought it would be. This movie had great sword fights, wicked entertaining action and it's heart-jumping moments were memorable but the one thing I expected the most to come out of the movie which didn't was the friendship. The bond between Jack Sparrow, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann wasn't like in the first movie when they where all happy-go-lucky. At first Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) sets up Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) by sending will Turner to his death on search of a key. When Sparrow sees that Will Turner was about to get shot... he just sat back and enjoyed the show! There were also scenes where Will and Jack were sword fighting to kill each other for no apparent reason. Shall I mention through this fight, half the time they were friends and fought the pirates, and other times they looked at each other and took a swing. MAKE UP YOUR MIND! YOUR CONFUSING THE AUDIENCE! And you can't forget about how Jack tried to make out with Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley). She who apparently was in love with Will kissed Jack (cry. I hate love moment). Fine she tried to kill him after, but why would they kiss? And at the end **PLEASE DON'T READ IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN MOVIE** Jack "died" even though the audience knows he will come back in the third movie. Staying on topic, there WAS no ending to the movie. They didn't get what they were looking for. They didn't kill Davy Jones and nor did Will and Elizabeth get back together. THERE WAS NO ENDING! I would have to give this movie a 6.5/10 (barely thumbs up) because the action was awesome. I am sure they left the movie off at a cliff-hanger because they want you to see the third and final Pirates of the Caribbean feature. I would see this movie in theaters or rent it... but not buy it.
