Breathtaking, Overwheling and .. yeah, Funny!

Rating: 9/10 (16 August 2006)

first I would say what bothered me a bit on the movie - the action, some of the scenes where a little over the top.
and now what I liked: everything. from Orlandos wet and tempting back through the effects to Jack. it was beautiful and it was over almost in a flash. I was hearing that it is quite long but I didn't have the impression. the first one definitely felt longer. the acting was great, though the best one was yet again Johnny Depp, his presence wasn't as strong as in the first movie thanks to bigger concentration on the sidekicks - I especially appreciated Ragetti and Pintel. Elizabeth had definitely a bigger part and Stelan Skarsgard was just incredible. I didn't recognize Bill Nighy but his performance was flawless as always. Orlando was great - I especially liked his eyes, but didn't have a lot of space. the tricks are incredible and unbelievable. much better then in the first one - there is definitely more of them. the plot is not bad either and the fun is still there - so much of it, especially concerning the rum :) but what I probably liked the most is the music. it is a work of genius. it suited the film perfectly. applause to Hans Zimmer. I recommended, strongly and cant wait to see the ending.
