Pirates 2=LOVE! *Spoilers--watch out!!*

Rating: 9/10 (7 July 2006)

This movie had me going from beginning to end. Mostly because the movie was all action, and not much of a plot. But, despite that, I absolutely LOVED THE MOVIE.
I did put 'spoilers' at the top but it seems to be no use as it looks like everyone saw it on opening day! This film was so visually engaging and action packed, I practically had a dropped jaw the whole movie. The special effects were SO amazing-quick, call the Academy! And, there are SO MANY plot twists-there's like five in just the last half hour. I couldn't believe what I had just saw when I left the theater.
My only, and I mean ONLY problem with this movie was the lack of deep plot progression as seen in the first movie. There was so many sub-plots the main theme was hardly developed at all. But, to me, this seems like "The Two Towers" of the series, to me- a sort of 'filler' movie in a way- and, in my predictions, the third one will be *awesome*.
Despite the lack of plot development, the movie left SO MANY questions unanswered (a good thing-as long as they are answered in the third movie), like, "Why did jack have to get swallowed by the horrible 'beasty?'" and "WHERE the HELL did Barbossa come from?" When I saw those boots coming down the steps, I was like, "OMG it's Jack! He's alive! My life is complete! I'm so hap--oh, wait it's...BARBOSSA?! What the..." And other things are sure to be hot topics in the weeks to come, the heart's fate, Elizabeth's true feelings, and the fate of Davy Jones, the Flying Dutchman, and good ol' Bootstrap. Will, well, Will keep his promise to stab the heart to save his father? Will Elizabeth discover that she really loves Jack? (Poor Will if that happens) I know Jack is in the third movie, but, like, HOW? AND BARBOSSA? GAHHHH!!! All in all, this was an awesome film that will keep me awake in bed for weeks, wondering what will happen in the third movie. GO SEE IT! (Dunno why I'm saying that, everyone already has! :D)
