Critics Consensus

Gone is Depp's unpredictability and much of the humor and originality of the first movie.

The result is an overproduced movie that tries so strenuously hard to be "fun" that it's a chore to sit through. For all its razzle-dazzle production values, the story itself feels cluttered, hard to follow and hard to care about

Dead Man's Chest is simply something we've been missing most of this entire summer - a film that's truly alive.

It's all a bit much, yes, a bit exhausting, that's true, but then why on Earth would anyone expect otherwise?

In the second film. calculated commercial interests, which are generally guaranteed to kill off genuine audience enthusiasm, have won out.

8/10

Although the previous film ended rather resolutely, there's no denying that the further tales of Jack Sparrow are significantly suitable affairs for cinematic realization.

A loose film, which certainly does not offer what it promises. [Full Review in Spanish]

A bit of a downgrade from the first one. Just felt like there was way too much going on. I'm glad the plots and subplots were tied together in the end, but it doesn't change my opinions on where my mind was at the start. Definitely much funnier than the first film.

The first scene was pretty gross, and the entire movie felt kinda gross, but I would probably watch this one over black pearl or worlds end because it had some good cinematics with the kraken and davy jones.
