Okay, so I promised I would write a movie review for Pirates of the Caribbean 2, it is a little rushed, but here it is: Pirates of the Caribbean 2 has all the elements of the first move: homour, pirate legends, adventures at sea, supernaturalism, love, and an evil villain and his crew, but it is, in a sense, over-produced and the plot was a little strange. Basically, Captain Jack Sparrow searches to find the key to unlock a treasure box, so he can possess the heart of Davey Jones, which will then give him control over the sea, and, of course, he is deceptive and lucky as usual and finds it. The only problem is he isn't the only one looking for it. I enjoyed the parts in the film with the great squid because I have always found the myths about a giant octopus destroying ships at sea intriguing. Pirates of the Caribbean 2 is definitely an entertaining adventure ride close to three hours in length and worth your $10. It has cannibals, a giant squid, battles at sea, mystery, a lot of humour, internal conflict, etc. Is the first one better? It could be just the ending of Dead Man's Chest, which was frustrating and exciting at the same time, but I think the first one is better for different reasons, one being that I didn't sense that the characters developed that much.
