Unfaithful

Rating: 3/10 (30 April 2007)

Simply said this sequel was a satire of the first one. They took personalities and dramatic elements from the first and made a caricature of the whole thing. It decided not to take itself seriously, which in some cases can be nice and self depreciating, but in the case of making a sequel it shouldn't do this, since it insults the fans that went to watch it the first time around. I swore this was directed by a different person and when I learned it was Gore Verbinski again I felt ashamed that he had turned his back on such a great story and turned it into a cartoony farcical piece of garbage. The performances seem rushed as many films do when they are trying to rush production doing back to back films. I have looked at the cast of the next pirates movies and it looks to be more of the same. It is unfortunate people become fans of the first and blindly follow the next few films unwilling to look at it critically.
