We left them with a happy ending, Elizabeth and Will ready to spend the rest of their lives together while the brilliant Jack Sparrow has escaped from British navy.  However, reading between the lines, it seems obvious the adventure did not finish there…

So after three year from Pirates of the Caribbean: the Curse of the Black Pearl (2003) that opens the trilogy, Dead Man's Chest—the second part of the lucky Disney series—comes to the screen.

The plot becomes complicated. The protagonists remain the same, but new and intriguing characters appear. Among them are Tia Dalma, the voodoo priestess that receives us in her marshy house with snakes and magical rites, and Davy Jones, the repulsive octopus-man, owner of title chest.

"... A sacrifice’s success is directly proportional to what is destroyed."


We are on Erna, twelve centuries after the landing of a spaceship from faraway Earth. The native planet’s memory and its technology have virtually vanished. Men have partially gained control of their new territory, dominated by the Fae, a wild and primitive force able to create in human minds either the most beautiful dreams or the worst nightmares.
Adepts and Sorcerers have learned to wield the fae at their own risk and benefit, among demons, ghosts, apparitions and magical duels. It’s magic against magic, with seals everywhere protecting from the dark forces unleashed by the fae, especially at nightfall when human control becomes more fragile.

We all heard about this phenomenon at least once in our lives: the UFO (Unidentified Flying Objects).

“Once upon a time there was a man who became rich, famous and powerful, everything you can desire in this world.

His name was Gold Roger, king of pirates.

Before dying, his words encouraged people to take to the sea: “My treasures? If you want them, they're yours….if you find them! I've left everything somewhere.”

And so the age of pirates began…”

In someone’s opinion, the poor result is due to Jeremy Irons’ presence, another unlucky choice of his latest cinematographic productions.

Someone else asserts John Malkhovich himself, after filming the few scenes in which he appears, got away, taking distance from the movie.

Bad words, maybe. At the box offices, the movie seems to have registered such a big success to make a sequel probable andeven an animated series. Those who have seen the film at the movies or at home seem discordant, especially if we consider the opinion of people who have also read the book from which the movie is taken.
