Pirates a Huge Hit, Critics Wrong Again
Here's another interesting bit of news from Disney: Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest has taken in over $800 million worldwide thus far. Disney spent a very large amount of money on promotiing the film, to be sure, but that doesn't always work.
Hence, $800 mil is an impressive box office intake for a film that got mediocre to poor reviews.
I thought Pirates II was terrific, and I'm glad to see that the audiences once again outsmarted the critics.
'Tis often thus.

After watched the first Pirates and have fun, laughed, enjoy the action specialy the sword fights, great music and characterization, I entered in a Pirates 2 movie that was boring, so-so for the most part, only the final 30 minnutes were exciting and when the movie gets really going is over.The CGI and scenaries were great as the first.
