I think this might have spoilers
OK, I was really fired up about going to see this. Even more when the first time I went to try and see it, every showing was sold up until 12 am!!!
When I eventually managed to get into a cinema, I was all set to see it. For the first 10 minutes (the arrest to about the bit when Will is captured) I was totally not impressed. This was nothing like the standard the first film had set. But luckily it was just slow! The producers could have speeded this up.
The thing about these films is that they capture all the old sailor stories and myths, such as Davy Jones, The Flying Dutchman and the Kraken and wind them all together. So, The Flying Dutchman is captained by Davy Jones, who just happens to have an evil 'beastie' (Cpt Jack Sparrow's word, not mine!) at his beck and call, the Kraken.
This makes them appeal to almost all men/boys, which male can truthfully say that at some point in his life he has never pretended to be a pirate??? My younger brother (10) was spell-bound through the whole film and I know my dad will want to see it!!! As it has a girl (and a pretty famous one at that) as a main character, I think a lot of my friends (13-14 year old girls) will want to watch it!
Its pretty hard to think that both these films sprung from a ride at Disneyland.
So, totally go see this!!!
