Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest

(Adventure, 151 minutes)
Starring: Johnny Deep, Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightley, BillNighy.
Directed by: Gore Verbinski
Released by: Walt Disney Pictures.

In this sequel to the 2003 highly successful film Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, you can see everyone’s favorite scoundrel, Captain Jack Sparrow (the brilliant Johnny Deep) trying to weasel out of paying a blood debt owed to the mythical Davy Jones, the captain of the otherworldly ship The Flying Dutchman.

Time is being his biggest enemy, and Sparrow pulls every trick he knows to find a way to escape the 100 years of servitude owed to Davy Jones. His old friends, Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) and Will Turner (Orlando Bloom), are once again sucked into Sparrow’s misadventures.
