Pirates of the Caribbean 2
PotC 2: Dead Man's Chest was....well...an interesting movie. And I'm being liberal in calling it that. Mainly, it was a segue masquerading as a film. The story was weak, the conclusion was missing, and the effects were large and loud. Like so many sequels, it was an overproduced menagerie of technical and cinematic elements formed into a movie that replaced a story with over-the-top CGI, while hoping the star power and good name of the first maintained it. As far as the box office is concerned, the movie is a huge hit, but I walked away wishing for more.
I guess I'll have to wait until part three arrives next summer.
