DVD Review: Land lover for sure
Summary: 5 Stars
I gave my family such a hard time about viewing these films. I didn't want to rent them, I thought they would be a waste of time. I fell in love with the story and the humor and now I am a huge fan of the Pirates of the Carribean!DVD Review: Overdone With Overkill
Summary: 3 Stars
The first PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN was fun but I think its huge success went to the filmmakers' heads because the excesses of the sequels definitely take a toll on the franchise.
More, more, more...of everything, except the fun. Long, convoluted action scenes, a jumbled mythology weighing everything down. Heavy helpings of CGI and stock plots. Excess ruined THE MATRIX trilogy and it also nearly sunk the Pirates.
There was a decent balance of the thin characters in the first movie but more of these people are definitely less. Does anyone really care about Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley's lovers? In the sequels, they both appear to be doing nothing but posing and defiantly jutting their jaws at the never-ending battles.
Yes, there's action and special effects and fighting and swordplay and cannons...but eventually it's just noise.
DVD Review: Great movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, and Kiera Knightley know how to put on a performance, a great one at that!
Description of Pirates of the Caribbean - Dead Man's Chest (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
Charming rogue pirate Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) is back for a grand swashbuckling nonstop joyride filled with devilish pirate humor monstrous sea creatures and breathtaking black magic. Now Jack's got a blood debt to pay -- he owes his soul to the legendary Davy Jones ghostly Ruler of the Ocean Depths . . .but ever-crafty Jack isn't about to go down without a fight. Along the way dashing Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and the beautiful Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) get caught up in the thrilling whirlpool of misadventures stirred up in Jack's quest to avoid eternal damnation by seizing the fabled Dead Man's Chest!Features:Documentaries ("Charting The Return" -- Pre-production Documentary; "According To Plan: The Harrowing And True Story Of DEAD MAN'S CHEST; Mastering The Blade: Orlando Bloom Keira Knightley Jack Davenport; Creating The Kraken)Other (Pirates On Main Street: THE DEAD MAN'S CHEST Premiere; Captain Jack: From Head To Toe; Meet Davy Jones: Anatomy Of A Legend; Dead Men Tell New Tales: Re-Imagineering The Attraction; Fly On The Set: The Bone Cage)Photo gallery (Jerry Bruckheimer: A Producer's Photo Diary)Outtakes (Bloopers Of The Caribbean)Audio commentary (with Writers Ted Elliot & Terry Rossio)System Requirements:Run Time: 150 minsFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre:?ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating:?PG-13 UPC:?786936720983 Manufacturer No:?05311400Take 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. Their freedom can only be obtained by getting Captain Jack's compass, which is linked to a key that's linked to a chest belonging to Davy Jones, an undead pirate with a tentacle face and in possession of a lot of people's souls. If you're already confused, don't worry--plot is definitely not the strong suit of the franchise, as the film excels during its stunt pieces, which are impressively extravagant (in particular a three-way swordfight atop a mill wheel). It may help to know that Dead Man's Chest was filmed simultaneously with some of Pirates 3, so don't expect a complete resolution (think more The Empire Strikes Back) or the movie will feel a lot longer than it really is.
Bloom shows a tad bit more brawn this time around, but he's still every bit as pretty as the tomboyish Knightley. (Seriously, sometimes you think they could swap roles.) Bill Nighy (Love, Actually) weighs in as Davy Jones and Stellan Skarsg?rd appears as Will's undead father. But the film still belongs wholly to Depp, who in a reprise of his Oscar-nominated role gets all the belly laughs with a single widened eyeliner-ed gaze. He still runs like a cartoon hen and slurs like Keith Richards--and he's still one of the most fascinating movie characters in recent history. --Ellen A. Kim
