The movie starts not too long after the events from "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Black Pearl", which was the first movie in the series. In this one, it starts off with Will (the blacksmith's apprentice from the first film) and Elizabeth Swan's wedding getting halted mid-ceremony. They are both placed under arrest for helping the pirate captain Jack Sparrow escape. In order to be cleared, they need to bring the "authorities" Jack's compass. Which just so happens to be capable of guiding him to a key rumored to open a chest from "The Flying Dutchman", Davy Jones' cursed ship. All sorts of misadventures ensue as it's found that Jack Sparrow himself hasn't been entirely forthcoming and is indebted to the same Davy Jones for his soul. Will and Jack's uneasy partnership adds some tension as they try to figure out how to deal with the British authorities, the half-monsterish Davy Jones and his damned crew, a voodoo queen and even a kraken.
