More of the Same Antics

(Flash Review)
This neither exceeded nor was below my modest expectations. This time Jack Sparrow gets roped into helping locate the Fountain Of Youth by a woman from his past whom partially deceives him. The intimidating pirate Blackbeard also ends up in the mix to no surprise. They all go on the hunt for the fountain, cross paths with a flock of mermaids, of which they need to capture a single tear from one of them, when mixed into a special chalice will allow the fountain of youth to work as they hope. Overall, it is a stereotypical story with some low tension and amusing action scenes, occasional bad jokes, some swords clanking and Sparrow constantly fleeing his foes. No new ground is explored.
