Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest
Captain Jack Sparrow, Elizabeth Swan and Will Turner are back in the second Pirates of the Caribbean movie. When the East India Trading Company comes to Port Royal, trouble comes with it for Will and Elizabeth, who are helping Jack. With Elizabeth in jail, Will is asked to retrieve an item from Jack, and is given a pardon to give to the captain in order to persuade him.
But what if Will doesn’t succeed? As usual, Jack’s agenda doesn’t fit into the others’ plan. Bring Davy Jones (ghostly ruler of the Ocean depths), the Flying Dutchman (the cursed ship of Davy Jones) and the Kraken (the evil creature that does Davy’s bidding) into the picture, and it’s one problem after another. As Will’s pirate friends begin taking matters into their own hands, there is betrayal, stealing, confusing emotions and the lingering danger of death. This movie is exciting and truly captivating with its array of fight scenes, humor, and laugh-out-loud awkward situations.
