Another disappointing Disney sequel

Rating: 5/10 (8 July 2006)

The movie was not terrible, but it was not great either. It was very disappointing after the first movie. It had no purpose but to lead up to the third movie. I didn't like how nothing was resolved; instead Disney added new things that could have been left out. The end sort of ruined the movie. I realize that they wanted to leave us hanging, but the way they could have done a much better job. I felt that they reached the climax and then instead of ending it, they started something almost completely new(should come at beginning of next movie). They could have done something else to provide some sort of conclusion and leave us hanging(the monkey scene at the end of the first movie). Also, the way they ended it will make it so that too much is happening in the next film; they will still be dealing with Davy Jones while they go on a new adventure to save Jack. I felt like I was watching the first half of a 5 hr. movie and now have to wait a yr. to see the rest. It felt like a waste of time watching a 2 1/2 hr. movie that only led up to the third one. Lastly, I did not like the new attraction between Jack and Elizabeth. I think it ruins things. On a more positive note, it was very humorous, although it may be frightening to young children.
