pirates dead man critic

Critical reaction
After months of anticipation and industry hype, reviews for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest were mixed, as the film scored a 54% "Rotten" rating on Rotten Tomatoes.[29] Among the positive critics were Michael Booth of the Denver Post, who awarded the film three-and-a-half stars out of four, praising it as "two hours and 20 minutes of escapism that once again makes the movies safe for guilt-free fun."[30] Drew McWeeny was highly positive, comparing the film to The Empire Strikes Back, and also acclaimed its darkness in its depiction of the crew of the Flying Dutchman and its cliffhanger.[31] The completely computer-generated Davy Jones turned out to be so realistic that some reviewers mistakenly identified Nighy as wearing prosthetic makeup.[32][33][34]
On the other hand, critic Michael Medved gave the film two stars out of four, calling the plot "sloppy, ...convoluted and insipid."[35] Paul Arendt of the BBC negatively compared it to The Matrix Reloaded, as a complex film that merely led onto the next film.[36] Following the release of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, some reviewers looked back at the second film as having a minuscule role in the storyline: Russ Fischer criticized screenwriters Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio for not making anything bar the cliffhanger matter too much in the third film,[37] with Todd Gilchrist pointing out the cannibal encounter as completely unnecessary.[38] Richard George felt a "better construct of Dead Man's Chest and At World's End would have been to take 90 minutes of Chest, mix it with all of End and then cut that film in two."[39] Alex Billington felt the third film, "almost makes the second film in the series obsolete or dulls it down enough that we can accept it in our trilogy DVD collections without ever watching it."
