So tell me, what's become of my ship?

The release of the second Pirates of the Caribbean film on DVD is now less than a month away. At least it will tide me over until the release of At Worlds' End sometime next year. More than one reviewer of the film said that they could have trimmed it down and released only one film. This would have meant trying to compress the storyline somewhat.

I would say the film is fine just the way it is, even with a year long wait to find out what happens next. Less Jack Sparrow? Are they insane? Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow makes the film enjoyable, even if it is a Disney film and I am (nearly) 23 years old.

Geoffrey Rush will be making a welcome return as Captain Barbossa. If his performance in the original Pirates of the Caribbean is anything to go by, it should be a cracking finale to the trilogy.

I leave with Captain Jack's last scene;

Jack Sparrow: [after being covered in mucus after the Kraken roars at him] Not so bad...
[wipes the slime from his face]
Jack Sparrow: [he looks down and sees his old hat] Oh!
[reaches for his hat and puts it on]
Jack Sparrow: 'Ello, beastie.
[smiles and draws his sword]

regards,

Alex.
