I was disappointed

Rating: 1/10 (7 July 2006)

I was extremely disappointed with this film, everything that made The Curse of the Black Pearl the outstanding masterpiece it was is lacking in Dead Man's Chest. The personalities of the characters are even different, often noticeably so. A complete waste of an amazing cast.
I own The Curse of the Black Pearl on DVD, it's one of my favorite movies. I plan on going to see Dead Man's Chest once more just because I feel like I must have missed something, but I sincerely doubt I'll purchase it.
After The Curse of the Black Pearl, I was expecting another exemplary addition to the Pirates of the Caribbean saga. In that, I was utterly disappointed. In my book, Dead Man's Chest goes down as another horrible sequel that never should have been attempted since it's obvious no one cared about getting it right.
In closing, please note this is my personal opinion. The friends I went to see the movie with loved it, I often tend to hold movies to higher technical standards than the average viewer.
You know what's even worse than watching a horrible movie? Knowing it could have been so much better. There was so much potential here... ruined.
