Pirates!

[sevenkids]

Part 2!
Fab u lous! I loved every minute of it, despite the lousy reviews. Don't bring young or sensitive kids, it's pretty scary at times, but what a movie! Everything I love in a movie. Action! Romance! Johhny Depp!:

Two thumbs up!

It does have some grossness. I'm a pretty wussy type so I was really glad I chose not to get popcorn or a drink. YMMV, naturally.

That movie rocked.

[sevenkids]

I loved the Jamaican witch, she was great.

[poppywise]

LOVED it. i could just eat johnny depp with a spoon. he's yummy.

[sevenkids]

I don't even need a spoon, I could just hold him in my hands and lick him until he's done.

Er...the movie. I don't get into 'watching'.

[LadyMarmalade]

Thanks for the good review - everyone else I know who has seen it thought it sucked and has said not to waste my money. It's good to know it might be worth watching!

I loved it! It was funny, full of action, special effects were amazing, and full of Johnny Depp!
I'd go back to see it again tonight if I could!

I think the movie was great, too! I do have this warning for all of you, though.

If you have young or very sensitive children, I would think twice about taking them to see it. Some of the characters are extremely gross-appearing; I know I would have had nightmares if I had seen it as a child.

For older children, teenagers, and adults, the movie's great! And Johnny Depp :

I liked it.

I was disappointed in the ending in an Empire Strikes Back sort of way.

[sevenkids]

yeah, the ending was a bummer (not a bad ending, but one that didn't let you take in a good breath and exhale). I think that, since they filmed parts 2 and 3 concurrently, they kinda forgot we would have to wait a year for the sequal. It was a "tune in next week" kind of ending.

[poppywise]

i agree the ending was a little too...contrived, but i was really happy to see geoffery rush whom i love! already can't wait til the next one..

[tinybutterfly]

Great Fun!!!

I would have LOVED to just stay and see it again immediately after I saw it the first time! Well, I would have needed a bathroom break, and more popcorn...:

A double feature of Pirates and More Pirates would have been fab!

[DaryLLL]

I thought Johnny was was too cartoonish. He took the swishy schtick too far. He lost his hotness and command. You could never believe he was a captain. He was almost becoming a Barney Fife or something. He looked a bit old and wrinkly.

There was not enough romance/sexual tension between Will and Elizabeth.

It was too long.

I had a hard time with the garbled accents.

I liked the crustecean look of the Dutchman crew, but there was too much screen time wasted on Davy Jones, while the heros didn't get enough. Just too many characters in general.

But still, of course I am glad I saw it. I would go again just to take in more of the "stuff."

[UnschoolnMa]

My kids loved it. I have yet to see it.

The script wasn't as good as the first one but watching Orlando Bloom makes up for that. I loved the part after the credits.

I knew it, I knew it, I knew it!!!! We left too early.

(Of course we also left too late since we ended up with 15 minutes to get my dh to work across town--I found I can do 70 in a 55.)

PM me what happens? Please?

[2Sweeties1Angel]

We saw it last night and loved it! I did have to explain the concept of "long pork" to DH and DS, LOL. I can't wait for part 3 and more Captain Jack!

The theatre was literally packed and some idiots brought freaking babies with them. If you want to bring your baby, whatever, but take it OUT when it starts crying! Don't just sit there and shove a bottle in it's mouth and hope it will shut up, for crying out loud.
