Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (DVD, 2006, Widescreen, 2-Disc Special Edition)

Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest

Wow...

Stunning visuals, superb acting, breath-taking special effects, incredible fight sequences, and devilish villians make Dead Man's Chest one of the must see films of the year.

Johnny Depp is back and better than ever as Jack Sparrow, Bloom and Kneightly are superb in their roles as well, and the rest of the supporting cast does a stupendous job.

The Villians are absolutely terrifying (maybe a little too terrifying for younger audiences) and the costumes are incredible.

DMC had me on the edge of my seat through the entire 2 1/2 hours of action and adventure. And DMC has the one thing that the original film was lacking, an absolutely superb ending. I can't wait for the next film in this amazing series.

Final Verdict:

5/5

Rent or Buy?: This is one of the must own films of 2006. Fun for the entire family!!!

Although not as dark as it sounds, Dead Man's Chest delivers the goods and hints at many more adventures to come. I don't know if the Pirates writing crew is making this up as they go along or if they have a vision, but this film certainly hinted at a much broader vision of things to come with numerous references to past battles, loves lost, and hearts kept under lock and key. It is a much more encompassing movie than was The Curse of the Black Pearl, but it is much more loose in structure. Verbinski keeps the action going despite what is a pretty complicated set of stories, more or less interwoven together but ultimately left unresolved. Johnny Depp may get top billing but it is Orlando Bloom who takes the lead in this movie, holding his own against sea-monsters and the King's men alike. With nothing more to go on than the image of a key, Will Turner and Captain Jack Sparrow are reunited (sort of) in an attempt to unlock a chest that offers a strange treasure indeed. Keira Knightley is reduced to a stowaway, with some memorable scenes, but not as big a role as she had in The Black Pearl. Bill Nighy steals the show as the incredible Davy Jones, a half man/half sea monster that draws on Captain Nemo more than the Flying Dutchman, but develops a troubled dark soul all his own. Naomie Harris makes for a fetching Voodoo Queen who ultimately unlocks the secret of this adventure, aiding Captain Jack and crew on their dark voyage. Jack Davenport returns as Norrington, a much more compelling character this time around than he was in The Black Pearl. Having fallen from grace, he completes the triangle that makes for some pretty tense action, especially in the closing scenes.

Be warned that Dead Man's Chest is an open ended movie, setting up what promises to be a thrilling third installment to Pirates of the Caribbean. Not only that, it hints at possible prequels because it covers so much territory in this sprawling movie that it leaves you craving for much more.

I think the word 'wow' pretty much sums up this movie. It was excellent! It definitely meets the standards set by the first movie.

This movie starts off on Will Turner's and Elizabeth Swann's wedding day, but the wedding is cancelled because of warrants for Will's and Elizabeth's arrests for helping Captain Jack Sparrow escape. Will is allowed to go out looking for Jack Sparrow to retrieve something from him (his compass) in exchange for his and Elizabeth's freedom. Will obviously runs into problems once he finds Jack. We find out that Jack has a debt to pay to Davy Jones, which he sends Will to settle for him and to find the key to the Dead Man's Chest which contains the heart of Davy Jones, the reason Will goes along with it is because Jack promises to give him his compass in return for finding the key. Once Davy's heart has been stabbed he is killed and all people (in this case mostly dead people) are freed from their debts to him. That is the shortened version, but there is still a lot more to this film. There are a great deal of hilarious parts in this movie as well, it will definitely keep you laughing.

The only bad part of this movie is that it ends with a cliffhanger. But it is very very entertaining.

If you are a fan of the first movie, or of Johnny Depp or Orlando Bloom then you will love this movie!

fast seller. description accurate. product arrived in great condition and within 1 week of pirchase

Movie captivates and holds attention. This is just another great movie in the Pirates of the Caribbean collection. Same great cinamatography and special effects! Recommended!

I loved Curse of the Black Pearl and J.D. always does fantastic acting. But this movie tops what was already great in the first and even better, left me hanging onto the hope of a third. There is never a dull moment in this movie, especially if you follow the story and dialog, you'll be stuck to your seat from all the action and comedy. With the addition of a new villian, Davy Jones (Bill Nighy)and his immortal crew on The Flying Dutchman, the story gets even deeper and exciting as we discover their abilities and as events unfold...

The sound from the DVD is phenomenal especially in surround or even stereo for that matter. The music tracks alone draws you right in.

I could say a whole lot more but I'll just stop at, I HIGHLY recommend this series for anyone's DVD collection.

awsome seller. great product. Glad to have done business with them. will use them again. no complaints here.

This is such a GREAT movie, as are all of the movies in the "Pirates" series. The wonderful visual effects and realism whisk one away to a time of snarling sea thieves and supernatural lore. I'm not one for re-watching movies. However, I can watch this one again and again. It's great fun for adults AND kids. If you haven't seen it, please do!

Picking up where we left off from the first film, Dead Man's Chest is the second installment to the Pirates Of The Caribbean trilogy(currenty). It didn't do quite as well in the box office as the first film, Curse Of The Black Pearl, however this one and like At World's End has it's own unique style of class. With two and three filmed back to back, the second film was left with an unfinished story as well as having a few confusing points in the plot. The whole cast is back from the first film such as Depp, Bloom, Rush, Davinport, Knightly and Price, yet there are a few new faces. The two new faces are Davy Jones, (Bill Nighy) and Lord Beckett, (Stellan Skarsgard) along with a few others who help keep the plot going. Probably the one character that puts the whole picture together is really the Kraken sea monster, who is loosely based on the giant squid from 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea. You might call it a mix between a leviathon and a giant squid. The animal in this film is known for dragging ships down to the depths of the sea by it's tenticles. The overall performance is good, but watch this back to back with the third installment makes it that much more worth while.

I like the first movie better than this one but this one is still good. This one is harder to follow. Johnny Depp does a good job of being drunk as always. This is something that is good to buy but I wouldn't say that you had to get it right away.

The movie in and of itself is great. It has action, adventure, swordfights, and a great story line. The characters are getting stronger and growing and that is wonderful to see as well. It is a great show. The extras DVD is good too. It fills in a lot of the behind the scenes stuff and is very enjoyable. This DVD is well worth the money.

Although not as dark as it sounds, Dead Man's Chest delivers the goods and hints at many more adventures to come. I don't know if the Pirates writing crew is making this up as they go along or if they have a vision, but this film certainly hinted at a much broader vision of things to come with numerous references to past battles, loves lost, and hearts kept under lock and key.

I had the first and last movies in the "Pirates" trilogy and wanted to complete it by owning the second. The disc, although used, is in excellent condition and has no damage. I watched thru the movie with no skips.

The product was delivered last week. Being too busy to watch it lately.
Excellent service, well package and i will buy from the seller again.

We love the Priate movies. Jonnie Depp is funny and it has enough to keep the kids on the edge of their seat but not to keep them up at night. Great movie

5 out of 5. Excellent movie, Excellent special effects, Great acting. Again, Johnny Depp MAKES this movie. As good as the first, if not better. Highly recommended, a definite buyer.

The DVD looks like I just went to the store and bought it. It is in perfect condition just like new! I was happy to buy it because of the price and because I have been wanting this movie for a long time. The price was right and the condition of the item was great!

The second in it's trilogy dips into the water of weirdness a little bit more. As if the whole "dead by night" thing wasn't enough in the first, Dead Man's Chest really gets things going - almost to the point where I'm too focused on trying to connect the plot dots during the action scenes I should be enjoying. Remarkably, there's some very clever and funny scenes throughout the film - fantastic situations of irony and choreographed sword fighting.

This movies is the second in the series of three. It is an amazing series of films and has amazing actors.

We replaced our old copy that had too many scratches on it. We love all of the Pirate moveis. They are entertaining for the whole family.

Just as good as the first. If anything, it's better. Great humor, action packed. Plus the actors are awesome.

The shipping and handling was fast, the movie was in great condition, as was the dvd cover. Overall, everything was good.
