An screaming abomination begging for death

Rating: 1/10 (11 November 2006)

I have never felt so stupid as after watching Pirates of the Caribbean 2. I know that a complex plot wouldn't do good for the franchise, but the sheer "duh" that resonated through the collective mind of the audience was enough to send me over the edge. The studio seemed to presume the core target audience was composed of retarded hillbillies, so they decided to make the movie "accesible" (read: brain-dead). There was some nonsense plot about pirate ghosts ( a refreshing change to the earlier pirate fags) that was more transparent than the Invisible Man. The original movies swashbuckling and Depp's performance have been dumbed down and raped to slobbering fetus covered in excrement and baby innards. No one in their right mind would have let this overflowing bucket of feces out of the studio. If you have any sense of decency, skip this one.
