Zawadiacki błysk w oku nie pomoże szarmanckiemu kapitanowi Jackowi Sparrow wydostać się z pułapki Davyego Jonesa kryjącej się na krańcu świata. Tym razem nie ucieknie stamtąd przy pomocy rumu, czy związanych lianami żółwi. By wyzwolić pirata, Will Turner (Orlando Bloom), Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) i kapitan Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) zawiązują sojusz i wypływają na najdalsze wody, bowiem tylko gotowi na wszystko śmiałkowie mogą dołączyć do Jacka. W tym czasie, posługując się Latającym Holendrem, Kompania Wschodnioindyjska realizuje plan oczyszczenia mórz z wszelkich korsarzy.
Take the first
Pirates of the Caribbean film, add a dash of
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and a lot more rum. Shake well and you'll have something resembling
Dead Man's Chest, a bombastic sequel that's enjoyable as long as you don't think too hard about it. The film opens with the interrupted wedding of Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley), both of whom are arrested for aiding in the escape of Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) in the first film. Their freedom can only be obtained by getting Captain Jack's compass, which is linked to a key that's linked to a chest belonging to Davy Jones, an undead pirate with a tentacle face and in possession of a lot of people's souls. If you're already confused, don't worry--plot is definitely not the strong suit of the franchise, as the film excels during its stunt pieces, which are impressively extravagant (in particular a three-way swordfight atop a mill wheel). It may help to know that
Dead Man's Chest was filmed simultaneously with some of
Pirates 3, so don't expect a complete resolution (think more
The Empire Strikes Back) or the movie will feel a
lot longer than it really is.
Bloom shows a tad bit more brawn this time around, but he's still every bit as pretty as the tomboyish Knightley. (Seriously, sometimes you think they could swap roles.) Bill Nighy (Love, Actually) weighs in as Davy Jones and Stellan Skarsgrd appears as Will's undead father. But the film still belongs wholly to Depp, who in a reprise of his Oscar-nominated role gets all the belly laughs with a single widened eyeliner-ed gaze. He still runs like a cartoon hen and slurs like Keith Richards--and he's still one of the most fascinating movie characters in recent history. --Ellen A. Kim
Product Description
Captain Jack Sparrow is back in this adventure sequel. Once again thrown into the world of the supernatural, Jack (Johnny Depp) finds out that he owes a blood debt to the legendary Davy Jones (Bill Nighy), Captain of the ghostly Flying Dutchman. With time running out, Jack must find a way out of his debt or else be doomed to eternal damnation and servitude in the afterlife. But Jack will not give in without a fight, which is especially bad news for Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley), who always seem to get caught up in Jack's mishaps. If Jack can't find a way to rid himself of Davy Jones once and for all, it may just spell the end for the three adventurers.
