Pirates of the Carribbean

After the enthralling first part with Johnny Depp contributing the humor as egocentric Jack Sparrow, the second part is rather disappointing. The animations are great but spinning wheels, hordes of cannibals and mystic-candle-light voodoo sessions are flooring the content of the story so much that one gets difficulties to follow why they went to island X,Y and back to X in the first place. The pathetic motivations of the actors be it to get married, finding your darling or rescuing your dad remind me of my own rather weak performances as a role-play master. And when finally the last character from part 1 is showing up in the last 30 seconds; the movie becomes a true parody. I don't mind parodies, but it wasn't a convincing one yet, I have hopes for part 3.
