A must see for all adventure freaks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rating: 6/10 (8 August 2006)

Three years after the first installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, Jerry Bruckheimer and Gore Verbinski did it again. They have created a two and half hour long hilarious and action packed adventure that will really hold you on the edge of your seat. This film has it all, action, comedy, adventure, fantasy, big and evil monsters that look really scary and of course a great cast of actors, such as Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, Bill Nighy, Jonathan Pryce and many others.
The visual effects are fantastic and almost flawless, but from time to time there are a few visible mistakes, but you can see them only, if you concentrate on that. Otherwise they are the best I have seen lately in all films with CGI effects.
As for the story, it is very interesting and it is seen that the screenwriters were trying to get the best out of it, but they didn't correct all the mistakes, so the plot might be in some scenes a little less developed than in the others, but thank God that Gore and Johnny know how to make things right.
Johnny Depp is again the bright light of this film. His performance is more than fantastic. I can't even find the word to describe it. Everything he does is pure magic and he really helps you to take the ride of your life throughout the whole film. This is most certainly his best performance ever, although he has created many different characters in his career, Jack Sparrow is his most complex and strangest creation.
Even Gore Verbinski has developed his skills in the last ten years. From Mousehunt to this film he had many rises and falls and he learned from the mistakes he made and now he delivers us one of this year's greatest masterpieces.
And Bill Highy as Davy Jones. This was most obvious a really good decision from the creators. You will most certainly remember him best from the first Underworld film, where he was playing Victor, a very strong and evil vampire. As Davy Jones he is even better. He is more evil and even more powerful and with the Kraken at his hand he really is one of the most recognizable villains in the movie history and a pretty damn good character.
All in all, Dead Man's Chest is a real Blockbuster that will put you on the edge of your seat and it won't let you go till the end. But with an open ending it will really make you to see the third part. This really is a must see for all adventure freaks and is wort every single penny you pay for the ticket. One of Jerry Bruckheimer's finest films with a great entertaining value.
