If nothing else, a movie worth the $7.50 ticket price.

Rating: 7/10 (10 July 2006)

Before I post my mild criticism, know that I am not a huge Pirates of the Caribbean fan. I saw the first movie, enjoyed it and then saw this. If you are an avid fan of Pirates, this is probably a sequel that will satisfy your craving. From someone who is just a regular viewer it was at least a fun movie to see once in the theater if never again. The only thing that really sort of wore me out was the constant unrealistic action that rivaled that of the Die Hard movies. For me at least it seemed like they tossed in sword fight here and there whenever they felt filling up time was necessary. That, and the 2 hours and 40 minutes of that particular content made me a bit restless in my seat. However if you are an advocate of Pirates of the Caribbean or you are a family looking to have a night out or movie viewing, this movie may be perfect.
