No no, I get you Mac. Maybe there could have been some sort of moral at the end of the story. Or maybe a life lesson or something. I don't know... maybe there was. Something about love... like Elizabeth and William have this strong love that they do anything to get back together or the love between William and his father that his father is willing to risk his own eternity just so his son can live a good life. I think that's purpose enough.

The moral should be:
"Be yourself. And if that means being a murderous scurvy pirate, than so be it." Wait. I think that was the moral of the first one.

My local newspaper said it could have done without 2 action sequences where Orlando Bloom rolls around in something spherical, and gave it 2 stars, but then my local newspaper is crap.
Still debating.
I think I'll wait til it comes out on DVD. I didn't see the first one at the cinema, so I'll see this one at home too.

I gave it a B, for Depp, special effects, comedy, no music during speeches.


However, the movie was a bit long though, i waited and waited for it to end, because at the end everything seemed to repeat itself. I don't like the elizabeth Swan character either, so boring. Will Turner wasn't much fun either, but Davy Jones and Gibbs where plenty of fun. So no A.

That's because she's played by one of the most annoying british actresses of all time. But she would've been more annoying with an american accent.
