Title: Disappointing
Product review: It seems that 95% of the reviews are glowing, but I hated Dead Man's Chest. I've seen the first movie six or seven times, and it still hasn't lost its humor and glorious silliness. DMC does deserve an extra star (up from one) for its decidedly entertaining action scenes. Black Pearl was so much more than action, though...In the sequel, Jack Sparrow is an entirely two-dimensional character and his fellow protagonists are flat and entirely uninteresting. Will and Elizabeth are thoroughly unconvincing when declaring their mutual love.The relation between the East India Company and the Crown as represented by the governor of Port Royal is utterly unbelievable and seems more like a reflection on the current involvement of big business in politics than anything that could actually have occurred back then.I'm sincerely hoping that Dead Man's Chest will turn out to be what 'Back to the Future II' was to BttF I & III -- a really awful movie wedged in between two great ones.
