Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest was absolutely awful! Not only was it lacking in humor, but it was also badly constructed of various sea-related myths, with too many storylines. Also, why the heck was the crew of the Flying Dutchman weird human-sea animal hybrid-things?! What does that have to do with ANYTHING? The story of the Flying Dutchman in actuality is rather interesting (and the opera is wonderful) but what kind of freak takes out their heart, survives, and keeps it in a chest, buried on some random island? Not even a pirate would do something so maniacal and stupid. Plus, the giant squid scenes were LAME. All you get to see are the tentacles, and every time the animal strikes, it's exactly the same as before.
Seriously. The screenwriter could have done such a better job with this movie. They completely wasted the wonderfully hilarious work done by the first Pirates movie on this second-rate roll of film. I hope the third one redeems this abomination.
Finished ranting.
P.S. I liked Commadore Norrington's part. What a sneaky, desperate man. Truly commendable. ;)
