Johnny Depp continues his antics that gave the first movie it's charm. Orlando and Keira do fine in their respective roles as well. I don't quite get the comments of the plot being overly complicated. If anything, I was relieved that there is a decent STORY here, and not just a movie that relies on it's action sequences, which, by the way, were well done in my opinion. I loved it, and my 8 year old son loved it as well.… Expand

I enjoyed all the fight scenes,the visual effects and the acting,especially Depps but overall the story wasn't very interesting. This movie had to be made just to fill in the space between the first and the third movie.

Takes a while to get up to speed, but the last hour is a fun filled action packed adventure. The special effects encompassing Davy Jones and crew were fantastic. If you're a fan, definitely check this one out in the theater.

It was different than the first yeah, but that's to be expected from a sequel because more of the same is boring. This one was darker, creepier, and had more plot than the first one and it works gorgeously. To those that believe that CG ruined the movie- would you rather they used puppets and end up making it look like a bad 1970s movie? Didn't think so. The length is fine- bigger tales mean longer screen times, and I was never bored once. All the actors are just as good (even better probably) than they were in the first movie and the dialogue is really good, something that is definitely lacking in movies these days. There was nothing bad about this film at all, don't listen to the haters, go give Gore Verbinski more money.… Expand

Like Jack said, it's not the best stand-alone movie, but like many trillogies it's there because now there's a continuing story that will end in the third. I'm not going to complain, and PotC actually contained an entertaining plot. Simply put, yeah it could be a better movie, but it's an amazing trilogy. Definately a little darker, but the humor for me hit every time. Great movie and I liked the faster pacing with more things happening in it and a little more action.

I think this film is vastly underrated. Sure, some the ideas are just plain ridiculous, and some scenes are impossibly hard to follow, but you can't help but appreciate the sheer quantity of cash and amount of planning in this film. I think this film is vastly underrated. Sure, some the ideas are just plain ridiculous, and some scenes are impossibly hard to follow, but you can't help but appreciate the sheer quantity of cash and amount of planning in this film. Scenes such as the jungle escape in the beginning are so well thought out it plays like an action movie, with each sequence topping the last. And while some of these offend or suspension of disbelief, it more than makes up with it with big-budget effects unlike anything ever seen in a Hollywood movie. The visual design of Davey Jones and his henchmen required hours of creative planning on the part of the art and special effects teams. The only real issue is the ham-fisted and completely unsatisfying ending that serves absolutely no purpose other than ticket sales for the sequel, but in the end it seems worth it to strap along for the ride.… Expand

Dead Man's Chest is a thrill-seeking adventure that turns toward a dark heading as the story becomes appropriately more grim. The effects make the action sequences breathtaking while the performances are as suprising as it's ending.

There were still plenty of funny, funny scenes. The problem most of you seem to have is the plot. It was fine; if you don't overanalyze like so many people (critics included) seem to do, then it makes sense. And the cliffhanger ending? COME ON, PEOPLE. So many trilogies have ended part 2 like that. LOTR of recent years. STAR WARS: EMPIRE!? COME ON! To be quite honest, I thought it was an excellent movie. People expect so much out of everything now. You all expected these outlandish ideas of what it should be, and are just upset that things could not turn out the way you dreamed. It was a very good, well-made movie. I will agree the first one was better. However, Dead Man's Chest is an excellent movie, as well. First week numbers don't lie, people. Everyone in the theater when I watched loved it.… Expand

While I truly enjoyed seeing this movie with my family, I was a little let down in the presentaion of the characters. It felt to me that everyone was trying too hard to remember what it was that made his/her character so likable in the first film. The one exception was that of Norrington. If you watch the dvd audio commentary with the cast, Jack Davenport (Norrington) exclaims that he looks like an "ice cream cone" compared to everyone else. Well, he got his chance to dirty it up a little, get your minds out of the gutter, I'm referring to his costuming. He did a splendid job portraying his role as a destitue, decomissioned officer of the British royal navy. I must say I am excited for the third installment because of the reappearance of Barbossa. Geoffrey Rush will not disappoint in his reprise. Yes, many of the jokes were rehashed. Yes, it was long. I hardly noticed the time pass until I left the theater and checked the time. My favorite link to the first film was when we finally get to see what tribe Sparrow was made chief of. Go and enjoy yourselves. You shouldn't be disapointed.… Expand

Dead Mans Chest is every bit as great as the first one but already Jack Sparrow has become a movie icon as familiar to the public as Hannibal Lector, Darth Vador and Indiana Jones and the only negative to this film is we know going in how brilliant Mr. Depp is and we just want more of him. Dead Mans Chest stands alone as a great old fashioned movie and had it been released first, people would be saying Black Pearl would be the inferior sequel. The movie ends as a set-up for the finale of the trilogy but I have a feeling Disney's going to milk atleast another trilogy out of this cash cow before all is over and done and if there as good, no great, as the first two I'll be first in line for as many as they can get Johnny Depp to agree to!! This is the definition of "Movie Magic".… Expand

Thankfully, my I won't lie- I met the first news of a Pirates sequel with a profound lack of enthusiasm. ' Everything's wrapped up- how do you do a sequel? WHY do a sequel?' (Don't answer that, I know why!) Thankfully, my misgivings were for the most part unfounded. PoTC 2 holds within it's expansive bowels all the crazy fun of it's first incarnation, but has a few special moments to set it apart: 1) Will's reunion with his father. 2) The 3-way sword battle. 3) The Pearl's crew versus the Kraken. These aside, it does borrow a few more gags from CotBP than is perhaps healthy (THREE different refernces to Elizabeth burning the rum!). Almost everything before the Flying Dutchman bursts forth from the dark waters is rather meh, and Depp's Keith Richards routine, while funny, is not quite as inventive the second time. The ending, as a good trilogy cliffhanger should, leaves one hoping PoTC 3 will offer more in the way of new material and personalities along with resolution. Don't watch this if you don't intend to see the 3rd- Dead Man's Chest is only half of an epic story.… Expand

I refer to the flaws, the strengths, and in essence, everything that has to do with the first film. This is not good, nor bad. The first movie was an enjoyable rumpus, but it was filled with flaws and holes. This film was no different, but it balances out as being nearly as good, if not equal to the first. The first similarity between the two films is the first half hour. The content is different enough, but it starts in the same way as the first. That is, a brilliant first half hour, then an hour and a half of pirates that never is as good as the first bit. This time however, I was entertained a little bit more the rest of the way through. The first half hour wasn't as strong as the first film's beginning, but it makes up for it with a stronger body. The special effects are incredible, even better than the first. The scenes with the legendary Krakken in particular are very good. And this brings up one of "Dead Man's Chest's" biggest strengths; it's action scenes. Unlike the first, much of the action is fun and memorable. There is one elaborate part where a chase for a chest, a moving sword fight, and a clash with Davy Jone's crew all occurs at once on a beach, in a mill, and in a jungle. It's very entertaining, and quite thrilling. It's also quite elaborate, the way everything occurs at once, but I couldn't help but think about how much was just filled in with CGI later, rather than filming simotaneously. This film does, however have some new flaws the first didn't have. One thing is the plot, or more specifically, lack of. I felt like I kept waiting for the plot to kick in. It never really did. Also, the character of Jack Sparrow was one of the most entertaining bits of the first film. Unfortunately, he has a considerably smaller role in this film, and he can't truthfully be considered the star in this episode. This leads to a lot of dull stretches. On the upside, the score is even stronger than that of the first. This time, it's fully composed by Hanz Zimmer and it's not only good, it's incredible. This is a soundtrack you'll want on your iPod. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest is just as good as the first; with weaknesses and strengths balancing out to create an equal package. One just wishes that there was some kind of reason to all the fighting and action, because frankly, we never get one.… Expand

I feel that if it shared only the theme with CotBP and had no connection to it in plot, it would have been better.… Expand

Pirates of The Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest is very well made movie, and it got many exiting and funny scenes which I haven't seen in movies before. The actors couldn't have been more awesome, and I especially admire Bill Nighy's and Johnny Depp's performance, because they played their characters so good! The music is still spectacular as it was in the first movie, but I didn't hear it that often as I did in the first movie, witch I really miss. Another negative thing about this movie is that it's a little lengthy at some places, and that the story is a little confusing, but also that it might have been a little too much un-serious content's which made the movie a little boring at some places.

Overall is Pirates of The Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest a great movie which has a great beginning and ending, but it is a little lengthy and it isn't that good as the first Pirates of The Caribbean movie.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A lot of people hate the Pirates of the Caribbean sequel films, and while I do have to say that I agree that there are some flaws in these sequels that COTBP doesn't have, I actually have to say that I like Dead Man's Chest a lot and I would even dare say that I think this film does live up to the original. It had an excellent story of course and the great characters we all liked from the first film including Captain Jack, Gibbs, Will Turner and others. The dialogue can be humorous, a little cheesy at times, but pretty good. I also like the action, the action in this film is fantastic. The special effects are mostly good, I think they did an excellent job with the Dutchman's crew and Davy Jones in terms of special effects, however in the end scene when Jack is in front of the mouth of the Kraken, I could kind of see that it looked like Depp was just looking at a green screen. Overall I think that DMC was excellent, I may have not had the wit and charm of the first film, but I still saw this film as equal with the first one and as long as you ignore the naysayers, I would recommend it.… Expand

Before Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl was released, its arrival was greeted with skepticism. After all, this was a movie based on a theme park ride. The production went on to be one of the best reviewed motion picturesBefore Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl was released, its arrival was greeted with skepticism. After all, this was a movie based on a theme park ride. The production went on to be one of the best reviewed motion pictures of 2003, and "if" questions about a second installment became "when." Because the follow-up story devised by director Gore Verbinski and writers Ted Elliott & Terry Rossio was too big for a single film, the filmmakers decided to make Pirates 2 and Pirates 3 back-to-back (as was done with The Matrix and Back to the Future sequels, and the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy), providing less down time in between episodes. The verdict for the middle movie of the proposed three-film arc: although not as much fun as its predecessor, it nevertheless delivers enough jaunty adventure and derring-do to keep fans entertained. The double-cliffhanger ending assures that audience members will be back for Pirates 3. In fact, if the movie didn't look so good on the big screen, I might be tempted to recommend that viewers wait for the next movie to open, then rent this one and see them as a double-feature.

Pacing is a problem for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. The 155-minute long film lurches through about 60 minutes of set-up before launching into its main story in earnest. The amount of time it takes Verbinski to get all the pieces in play makes the plot seem more complicated than it is. Dead Man's Chest is essentially a quest movie: find the key and chest, and use one to open the other. Of course, multiple factions want what's inside the chest, so that sets up the conflict. Once everything is established, the movie offers plenty of what made the first one so popular, but there's a sense that Dead Man's Chest doesn't need to be as long as it is.

The comedy in Dead Man's Chest is more subdued than in The Curse of the Black Pearl, but there's still a strong sense of irreverence. One of the movie's biggest action sequences, which takes place on an island and feature no less than five factions struggling for possession of two items, is heavily influenced not only by Errol Flynn but by Looney Tunes and the Three Stooges. Yes, there's sword action and ship-to-ship cannon action, but there's also a runaway water wheel, characters fleeing hither and fro, and a monster that literally loses its head and keeps shouting orders. The movie isn't as flip as its predecessor, but it avoids the deadly trap of taking itself too seriously. Then again, it's hard to figure how a production with the central character of Captain Jack could ever stumble into that pitfall. As he was in The Curse of the Black Pearl, Jack doesn't know the meaning of the word "serious," even when he's staring into the maw of the Kraken.

If it's the characters that keep film-goers coming back, there's reason to rejoice. Johnny Depp's Captain Jack has lost none of his swishy swagger. Depp is in peak form again, burying himself in the part and making the Captain the most dashing rogue this side of Han Solo. We don't see much of it, but we believe Elizabeth when she asserts there's a heart of gold inside the carefree exterior. For her part, Knightley has grown into Elizabeth. The character feels more integral to the story than in The Curse of the Black Pearl, where she was more often than not the obligatory love interest. Dead Man's Chest takes Elizabeth's romantic life in an unexpected direction, as sparks fly between her and Jack. Knightley and Depp have chemistry; Knightley and Bloom do not. Therefore, this pairing makes sense. Plus, as there's a submerged goodness in Jack, there's a hidden devilish side to Elizabeth.

In essence, Dead Man's Chest gives us an opportunity to join old friends on a new adventure that isn't substantially different from the old one. Many of the same elements are here - ghost ships, the walking dead, hidden treasure - and that's all right because it's part of what we might now refer to as the "Pirates of the Caribbean formula." The slow, uneven beginning is more than compensated for by the rousing climax, and the last scene promises more of the same the next time around, with possibly greater things to come. If I had to choose between the first two films in terms of which provides the more full entertainment experience, I would pick The Curse of the Black Pearl, but Dead Man's Chest isn't far behind.… Expand

(sigh) This was the only movie I've missed in theaters in 2006, but thank god I watched it on DVD rental at the library and really enjoyed it. I can't believe I'm saying this, but... this sequel is not as good as the first movie.

At first glance, it seems like a pretty good deal. You put down your money — still less than $10 in most cities — and in return you get two and a half hours of spirited swashbuckling, with an all-star three-way battle of the cheekbonesAt first glance, it seems like a pretty good deal. You put down your money — still less than $10 in most cities — and in return you get two and a half hours of spirited swashbuckling, with an all-star three-way battle of the cheekbones (Orlando Bloom vs. Keira Knightley vs. Johnny Depp) and some extra-slimy computer-generated imagery thrown in at no additional cost.

But there's a catch, as there usually is. "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" is not just a movie. It's a glistening, sushi-grade chunk of franchise entertainment, which means that maximal enjoyment of it comes with certain obligations. It is the second episode in what will be at least a trilogy — the third installment is scheduled for release next summer — and full appreciation of its whirligig plot will depend on thorough acquaintance with the first "Pirates of the Caribbean" picture, conveniently available for purchase on DVD. And since "Dead Man's Chest" brazenly dispenses with the convention of an ending — it's pretty much all middle — you will, by virtue of buying that ticket, have committed yourself to buying another one a year from now if you're the least bit curious about how the whole thing turns out. By then, chances are good that you will have forgotten most of what happened in "Dead Man's Chest," so you'll have another disc to add to the shopping cart.

The question is: Is it worth it? The same thought probably crosses the minds of Disney theme-park vacationers as they endure endless lines for the ride on which the movies are based, but the notion is quickly banished because nobody likes to feel like a sucker. By a rational calculation of time and money — yours and the untold millions invested by Disney, the producer Jerry Bruckheimer and others — the answer is probably no. But hey, this isn't about that, right? It's about fun. You're there to have fun. Fun for the family. Fun for the kids. Fun for everyone. So shut up and have fun.

And you probably will, even if it's hard to shake the feeling that you've been bullied into it. Gore Verbinski, the director, has an appropriate sense of mischief, as a well as a gift, nearly equaling those of Peter Jackson and Steven Spielberg, for integrating CGI seamlessly into his cinematic compositions. What is curious about the recent crop of high-tech blockbusters is how seriously they take themselves, and unlike, say, "Superman Returns," "Dead Man's Chest" cannot be called pretentious. It makes no claims to being about good and evil, the difficulty of saving the world in the modern era, or the inner lives of any of its characters.

Instead, it sends Elizabeth Swann (Ms. Knightley) and Will Turner (Mr. Bloom), their wedding day ruined in an opening sequence that seems to pay tribute to the old Guns N' Roses "November Rain" video, on a search for the pirate captain Jack Sparrow (Mr. Depp). Jack, as usual, finds himself in all kinds of trouble, pursued not only by agents of the British crown, but also by an undead, squid-faced mariner, the famous Davy Jones, who commands a ghoulish crew of half-human, half-aquatic creatures. These sailors are like the cast of "SpongeBob SquarePants" — or the menu at a seafood restaurant —come to life: Night of the Living Bouillabaisse.

One of them, played by Stellan Skarsgard with a starfish embedded in his face, is Will's long-lost father, a development that adds a gelatinous morsel of father-son pathos to the stew of plots and subplots cooked up by the screenwriters, Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio. Davy Jones himself, meanwhile, speaks in the sinister whisper of Bill Nighy, though it is his swaying mass of facial tentacles that most viewers will remember.

And there are other memorable bits and pieces, visual highlights of a movie with no particular interest in coherence, economy or feeling. Ms. Knightley is, once again, a vision of imperial British pluckiness, with an intriguing dash of romantic recklessness that surfaces toward the end. Mr. Bloom, as is his custom, leaps about, trying to overcome his incurable blandness, and is upstaged by special effects, musical cues, octopus tentacles and pieces of wood. Naomie Harris turns up for a few scenes of hammy voodoo, and Mackenzie Crook and David Bailie contribute some proletarian slapstick. Most of the other members of the first movie's cast show up again, sometimes in surprising circumstances.

The franchise, of course, belongs to Jack Sparrow, and to Mr. Depp. Because this is a sequel, the role is no longer the splendid surprise it was in 2003, when "The Curse of the Black Pearl" charmed audiences and disarmed critics on its way to the third-best domestic box-office gross of the year. But the best parts of "Dead Man's Chest" confirm Jack Sparrow as the most viable Disney cartoon character in quite some time, though his anarchic insouciance has more in common with the work of Chuck Jones or Tex Avery.… Expand
