I really thought this movie was ok. For all the hype, its not THAT good.
The first movie was great, then again, it came out of left field with no expectations. It was such a fun and original flick, great music, good characters, funny while dramatic with good action. It had it all.
This movie has... well, stuff. It feels stuffed to the brim with nothing. The sword fighting was ok, but mostly ridiculous. The whole island thing early in the movie was full of scenes that were too goofy. Aside from the Ms. Swan/Cpt. Sparrow conversations, the dialog was pretty boring or predictable.
I enjoyed the movie, don't get me wrong. But this isn't a great movie. It is a tried and true summer flick. Nothing more. It aspires to live up to the original, but just pales in creativity, witty dialog, captivating characters, action scenes (what happens NOT the FX). I recommend seeing it because its fun but not nearly as great as it's made out to be.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
