A sequel is always going to be harder to follow (unless its Lord of the Rings)

Rating: 7/10 (21 June 2020)

Pirates does well do add an interesting story line in Dead Man's Chest, but it was always going to struggle to be better than the Curse of the Black Pearl. This story got a bit more outrageous and over the top. With Jack becoming the King/Chieftain of a whole village on a remote island, to some exaggerated action scenes with the pirates swinging in a giant ball and climbing up the cliff or the giant wheel battle. Although it does stick out in my mind as entertaining and memorable. But just a bit over the top. The characters all return in good strength, and the movie is enjoyable, not enough to get me fizzed and watch every movie in the series.
