This will most definately be a short review, since it's sunday and I can't be bitched to write anything long. I'm writing this on a sunday since I was sick most of the week. Now on with the review: I have no idea what this movie was supposedly about. I have seen the first part, but here there is a massive 10-20 minutes of actual story exposition in all of the 150 minutes that it takes to tell whatever the hell it's trying to tell. After I saw The Weatherman, Gore Verbinski became one of those directors who I have huge expectations to, no matter what the movie is. Here I managed to lower those expectations sufficiently, but I was still incredibly dissapointed. It's sad to see the man make pointless crap like this when he could easily be directing something beautiful like The Weatherman. T...Read more

"...This is a jar of dirt." Disney sequels frequently have a typical predisposition for being a worthless waste of time and a complete disgrace to the original. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest was made for the money, and although the film didn't entirely suck I found it sorely lacking. Visually, the movie was fantastic. The mild use of CGI looked extraordinary, extravagant and was a treat to the eyes...but did anyone take a moment to contemplate a better script and a better storyline? After the events of the first film, our favourite notorious swashbuckling hero Captain Jack Sparrow (Depp) is thrown into the world of the supernatural as he is reminded of a debt he owes to Davy Jones (Nighy) - his soul. So as Davy and his crew aboard the Flying Dutchman search for Jack...Read more

The latest installment of Disney's new money-maker fell far short of the first episode both in storyline and entertainment. I spent the first half of the movie wondering why all the action featured everyone bumbling around chasing each other in these elaborate half hour goofy nailbiter sequences. The other half of the movie was spent wondering when the movie would end. So Jack Sparrow dies? They should have killed the story with him, I can only imagine what his return will be like in the finale.

Jack Sparrow heeft werk. Hij moet vluchten voor de vreselijke Davy Jones, de kapitein van de "Vliegende Hollander" en de verschrikkelijke Kraken, na een obscure schuldkwestie. Maar een ongeluk komt nooit alleen: Will Turner probeert de gekke piraat eveneens te vinden, om zijn geliefde Elizabeth en zichzelf te redden. Dit leuke gezelschap zal uiteindelijk op zoek gaan naar een mysterieuze sleutel, die een al even mysterieuze koffer kan ontsluiten. Grappig om zien hoe een louter commercieel gegeven, namelijk een fi lm afgeleid van een Disney-attractie, kan leiden tot een meesterwerk! Gore Verbinski ('The Weather Man') tekende met dit Pirates of the Caribbean inderdaad verantwoordelijk voor een werk voor het grote publiek van hoog niveau, waarbij hij aansluiting vindt bij de meesterwerken van...Read more
