Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

If you read my review for the first Pirate's movie then you'll know that Disney disappointed me again with the same crap at the insertion of this Blu-ray Disc into my player.

Favorite line from the movie, "The Captain seems to be acting a bit strange... errrr."

This movie is more dark. First example is during the meeting at the beginning between Lord Beckett and Will Turner where it is said that in a shrinking world there is no place for a free man.

Later we see the Flying Dutchman's crew members gambling the only thing a slave has to offer, years of servitude.

In the talk between Elizabeth and Captain Jack Sparrow, she basically enlightens the Captain to the knowledge that all people have that one moment in their life where they can stand up and change things in the world. We don't do it because of fame or fortune, but because its the right thing to do. Atleast that's what I gather from their conversation.

Oddly the sound on this disc seems a tad bit lower than in the first movie.

Like with its predecessor, I would be willing to update to a new disc if it was in a high definition and/or in 3D.

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

I hate Disney! Sorry, but I had to get that out there. After a lengthy time staring at their logo, I would have been forced to watch 5 trailers, an anti-piracy commercial, and a clip about how I can't hold them responsible for comments made in the interviews and alternative soundtracks. Thank goodness though I could skip each one but the clip.

The introductory menu is enchanting, however the main menu seems boring in comparison.

The video quality is amazing, and the sound is lovely.

The story is still as good as the first time I watched it. The special effects dazzling. The acting wonderful. Even after all these years.

If you've not seen the movie, you are in for a good action film. It is well rounded with comedy, wit, love, greed and adventure.

I upgraded to this Blu-ray Disc from my copy on DVD. So worth it. When the time comes that they release a 4k or better version, or 3-D, I'll be hard pressed not to upgrade again.
