Movie Plot Synopsis (SPOILERS!)
Pirates of the Caribbean 2: LeChuck's Revenge

On what was meant to be the wedding day of Elizabeth Swann and Will Turner, Lord Cutler Beckett of the East India Trading Company arrests our heroes. Lord Beckett offers Will a reprieve if he can get Captain Jack Sparrow's compass for the Company.

Meanwhile Will's father appears to Captain Jack to warn him that it is time to repay an old debt to Davy Jones, captain of the Flying Dutchman.


The Dread Pirate Davy Jones, Captain of The Flying Dutchman

The Dread Pirate Barbossa from the The Secret of Monkey Island: Curse of the Black Pearl

The Flying Dutchman

Will finally gets word that the Black Pearl is abandoned on a remote island. There, he finds a suspicious native tribe of cannibals. Hilarity ensues, they escape through the jungle and everyone meets back up at the Black Pearl.


Jack says he will give Will the compass as long as Will gets him the key to a chest where Davy Jones keeps his heart. In a visit to a witch doctor they get hold of the location of the Flying Dutchman and Jack gets a jar of dirt (Good for you! You got a Jar of Dirt! Look at Jar of Dirt. Use Jar of Dirt.) They set sail for the Flying Dutchman. Will is caught by Davy Jones, and Jack is told to collect more souls for Davy Jones if he wants to stay free. Jack sets sail for Tortuga where they enlist more sailors (souls) at the SCUMM Bar.


Meanwhile, Elizabeth Swann has had a bungled escape attempt and winds up in Tortuga as well. She then enlists for the Black Pearl also.

Will steals Davy Jones' key.

Both crews arrive at the island where Davy Jones' heart is buried at much the same time, precipitating a sword fight.

And more hilarity ensues.


The end.

I give it 5 out of 5 three-headed monkeys ( or a total of 15 monkey heads )


Oh yeah, and the dog with the keys from the first Monkey-- I mean Pirates movie, also appears in this one.

  1. Aaaaa! Spoilers! Spoilers! You have ruined my movie-going experience!

    At least you didn't divulge the surprise ending where Will Turner finds out he's been dead through the whole movie.

  2. Actually, the entire Caribbean is actually a computer generated world and Jack Sparrow needs to defeat Agent Smith in order to lift the curse.
