Gone is Depp's unpredictability and much of the humor and originality of the first movie.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest | Rotten Tomatoes (1) David Ansen Newsweek The result is an overproduced movie that tries so strenuously hard to be "fun" that it's a chore to sit through. For all its razzle-dazzle production values, the story itself feels cluttered, hard to follow and hard to care about Mar 14, 2018 Full Review Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Brian Tallerico UGO Dead Man's Chest is simply something we've been missing most of this entire summer - a film that's truly alive. Mar 24, 2007 Full Review Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle It's all a bit much, yes, a bit exhausting, that's true, but then why on Earth would anyone expect otherwise? Rated: 3/5 Jul 22, 2006 Full Review Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest | Rotten Tomatoes (4) David Walsh World Socialist Web Site In the second film. calculated commercial interests, which are generally guaranteed to kill off genuine audience enthusiasm, have won out. Feb 14, 2021 Full Review Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Although the previous film ended rather resolutely, there's no denying that the further tales of Jack Sparrow are significantly suitable affairs for cinematic realization. Rated: 8/10 Nov 21, 2020 Full Review Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Alberto Abuín Espinof A loose film, which certainly does not offer what it promises.

Élio M another great movie. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/10/24 Full Review Idan Charles L This was great, it's seriously underrated (like all the other potc films except the first) Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/01/24 Full Review Aender S Great popcorn movie leaving us with a cliffhanger making me want to see what happens next. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/23/24 Full Review Markus L Not as good as the first one... that happens a lot. But still, it's a really good movie, with amazing action, characters and a good cliffhanger that adds to the whole experience. My only problem with this movie is that some of the action sequences get really dragged out, so they become boring and not interesting anymore. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/06/24 Full Review Jesse S The action is astounding, the acting is great and Davy Jones is one of the best villains of the entire franchise. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/13/24 Full Review Alysha S Davy Jones is a good enough villain. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/02/24 Full Review Read all reviews
