Take the first Pirates of the Caribbean film, add a dash of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and a lot more rum. Shake well and you'll have something resembling Dead Man's Chest, a bombastic sequel that's enjoyable as long as you don't think too hard about it. The film opens with the interrupted wedding of Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley), both of whom are arrested for aiding in the escape of Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) in the first film.

I didn't like one single thing about this movie. I really liked the original. Even the idiotic Exorcist II is better than this bomb. The dialogue was forced and very boring. The characters were underdeveloped and completely uninteresting. George C Scott spent a lot of time yelling but it came off as pointless noise. The "light hearted banter" between Scott and his priest friend in the hospital seemed like it was written by a junior-high school student.
