Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006)
Extremely poor
I can't believe this movie can be liked by anyone. For starters, the story is extremely poor. Seems like the director of the movie thought that just because he is introducing out of the world creatures, he can make and twist whatever rules he wants to, no matter how unreasonable they sound.
A saving grace for such movies is a good and entertaining ending. Unfortunately, the ending of this movie is beyond horrible. One hardly gets a sense of closure from the ending. Everything seems to have been left for the 3rd sequel, which is not good.
The first half of the movie has some humor in it, but unfortunately whatever happens in the first half is almost unconnected to the main story and seems totally irrelevant once one finishes seeing the movie.
This sequel doesn't even come close to the first movie of this series. I wish the makers of this movie had worked a little harder to preserve the good name they'd made in the first one.
Les rivières pourpres II - Les anges de l'apocalypse (2004)
Poor storyline
The movie starts in an interesting way and builds up some excitement with the strange murders and reasonably good action sequences. It is poor in offering explanations for why there were people in the modern world that looked so much like Jesus and his disciples and why they believed in the apocalypse.
Towards the end, you find that the overall story was after all quite weak. Specially, the ending is really sub-par. In fact, if Jean Reno and his team hadn't done anything, the bad guys would have killed themselves anyway in the end. I wish the movie ending had been such that Jean Reno and his team somehow helped kill the bad guys or prevent the doom from happening, but unfortunately it was not so.
