Pirates of the Caribbean
Dead Man's Chest
We went to see the 2nd installment of "Pirates of the Caribbean" this weekend (so did everybody else in town) many of the showtimes were sold out; the theater was really packed!
Actually, I liked the first one better but this one was also very good. Although I would think twice about bringing young kids to the movie, the bad guys are really gross looking and pretty scary! The make-up artists did an awesome job.
Make sure you stay and read the credits after the movie because there is a secret scene at the end of the credits.
China has banned "Dead Man's Chest" due to its violent and supernatural content. There is no rating system for movies in China, but they will usually reject sex and violence.
Elsewhere,the film broke box office records. Opening day on Friday, the film set the record for the single-day box office gross by collecting $55.5 million then added an estimated $44.7 million on Saturday to become the first film in history to break the $100 million mark in two days!
In this follow-up to the original block-buster, Captian Jack Sparrow is trying to save himself from eternal damnation due to a blood debt he owes to Davy Jones. Depp is reunited with Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley as they team up once again.
The movie has plenty of action and comedy and ends in true cliff-hanger fashion paving the way for a third installment. I enjoyed it, but still liked the first one better. Of course, I will end up buying the DVD when it comes out to add to my collection.
