Enormously trumped up and overrated!!!!!!

Rating: 6/10 (13 July 2006)

PotC2 is one of those movies that has a lot of great assets to it, but then has so many damn plot holes and unfinished business that you want to punch Keira Knightley for being such a hot snob...? The main characters were lousy: Johnny Depp was just average, Keira Knightley's character was loathsome, especially towards the end of the film, Orlando Bloom was the most likable, and most heroic...The movie's sole redeeming features were the unbelievable FX. Davy Jones' crew and himself were over the top and badass, but the film's main monster was kind of a letdown. The film was also too damn long, with some scenes growing monotonous even with crazy crap going on. Man, I was disappointed with this flick; all I wanted to do was be entertained, and I ended up hating Keira Knightley, and Jack Sparrow for that matter. Maybe the next one will give a little rehash on Sparrow's life, and possibly redeem the lackluster screen time he had in this FX laden, FX carrying, letdown. Did I mention the Fx were great?
