I actually watched the first part of this with one friend and then most of the rest with my girlfriend… it’s a long movie! I still never quite finished it off, but it was pretty fun most of the way, a few too many extended action sequences though for me.

It’s reasonably fun, but it also drags its heels a little more noticeably this time, and I think it would have helped if they had had some degree of resolution to any of the plot threads at all. It’s not at all that I have a problem with a cliffhanger—those are all good and fine, but not a single storyline that’s opened gets closed by the end, and it doesn’t make it a very satisfying movie to watch.

Otherwise, my memory’s a bit foggy, but I’m pretty sure Johnny Depp wasn’t quite as entertaining this time around.

Bottom Line: Johnny Depp was amazing in this flick. I can’t wait to see the 2nd one now.
