Yes, tonight I finally had a chance to see the must-see movie of the summer: Pirates of the Caribbean 2--Dead Man's Chest.
I was pleasantly surprised. Though the action dragged in a couple of spots, the plot hung together much better than had the lashed-up script of the original Pirates movie.
Orlando Bloom got plenty of opportunities to swash some buckle instead of having to be virtuous 100% of the time, and Keira Knightly actually got to do some swashing as well.
Although most of the rest of what I have to say has extremely limited spoiler capacity, I will put the rest of my remarks under an lj-cut. However, if you haven't seen the movie but plan to, I do have one suggestion. Sit through all of the credits; there's a short scene that follows them that you shouldn't miss.
( Spoiler bait here. )
