This movie is missing what made the previous ones great: somewhat complex plots where different characters interact, each with a different motivation. Jack usually interweaves between these motivations with cleverness, negotiation, and some planning. However, In this movie there was no complex plot, the plot didn't make much sense (and contradicted some of the things implied or stated in previous movies), and everyone except the evil antagonist ended up wanting the same object (and to use that object in exactly the same way, making them all allies against the antagonist). Jack has always had scenes where he cleverly plans an escape or series of actions (often surprising bystanders with his ingenuity), but there were no such scenes in this one. Jack sometimes did things that were inexplicable, but these actions were never proven to be particularly intelligent. (Possibly it was meant to be humourous?) Jack spent almost the entire movie imprisoned, tied up, or being chased - unlike other movies, Jack spent almost no time leading anyone anywhere (whether directly as Captain or indirectly as adviser/selective informer).

I found the antagonist to be distasteful. He seemed to be on a murderous rampage, not caring who got in his way. The story suggests he got a really powerful ship (before being cursed), but it didn't make sense to me. Several ships attacking his all at once should have left a dent, but didn't. The antagonist and his ship, crew, and animals that just happened to be in the area are all cursed for entering an area - but whenever anyone else enters that same area, no curse is applied. After the curse, his ship had strange abilities that make you wonder why these "curses" are always such blessings if you want to be the perfect murdering machines (their abilities were more powerful and varied even than Davy Jones's!) Whereas Blackbeard valued little life other than his own, this captain seems to be thrilled at the idea of killing anyone he deems his enemy (with what I perceive to be inconsistent morals).

There were no significant twists in the plot - it told you almost everything that was going to happen near the beginning; the rest just followed through. The plot revisited William Turner, and showed a number of things about his condition that don't add up with what the previous movies implied. What happened to Will's father? Didn't William have a job to do, that - if he fulfilled it - he wouldn't have any fish-corrosion on him (as Davy Jones did)? In the beginning, isn't William in command of the Dutchman - so why did he act like the crew was going to do some evil thing to William's son (who was visiting)?

Minor notes:
-I saw it in 3D, but found that the 3D didn't add anything to it.
-The music was fine; they managed to keep the same type of music while varying it enough from previous movies to be pleasant to listen to.
-A lot of the characters from the previous movies didn't show up in this one (and Angelica was implied to be involved in future movies based on the ending of the 4th, but wasn't).
-I didn't care for most of the ending (too much death for my liking).

Overall, the scenes didn't make much sense and very little of it was enjoyable. The beginning few scenes were fun, but they failed to introduce the elements needed to make it a good movie. As one who very much enjoyed the previous four films, I do not recommend watching this one.… Expand

In a new part there is no nothing left good from the orinigalny trilogy except the excellent game Johnny Depp. And one actor can't save the movie even if it is the blockbuster. New actors don't cope with the roles, and creators as understood it and have returned also old. The main antagonist - the most boring villain in movies for the last few years. He has neither charisma, nor motives. Why he in general is necessary in the movie? What purposes at him? And the ending is so banal that it seems that the movie obviously for audience of children up to 7-8 years. If Dead Men Tell No Tales restart of a franchise from Disney, then Pirates of the Caribbean have died.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ever since the Pirates of the Caribbean Ride opened in Disneyland, the producers pitched the idea of adapting the ride into a fantastic action-packed movie entitled Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, and four sequels following the significant characters. The characters include the witty pirate Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp), his friends, and crew members on The Black Pearl; the ship based on the original film. The franchise was lucky at the box office, with Dead Men Tell No Tales garnering over $794 million worldwide. Unfortunately, the reviews of their movies started to drown, and this film is no exception.
Whether people enjoy viewing movies about action, pirates, or comedy, the fifth installment in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise will disappoint audience members at the movie theater. Not only does the film define what the franchise should not be, but also gives the viewers a clear perspective on every flaw in the sequels. Although the sequel was a summer blockbuster, the majority of audience members left the theater seasick.
During the evolution of the franchise, the various writers transform Captain Jack Sparrow from an intelligent, witty pirate captain to a drunken, comedic caricature of himself. Throughout several scenes in the movie, Sparrow turns to rum as a source of happiness. Unfortunately, the writer depicts Sparrow's addiction in a lousy way. For example, after the poignant scene of Sparrow’s crew abandoning him on the Dying Gull; an old ship that the team of the Black Pearl now possess, Sparrow scavenges for rum in the village. When Sparrow finally finds rum, he gives up his most valuable possession, a compass that points to someone’s desire. After these few moments, Sparrow is tipsy throughout the entire duration of the movie, especially in the beginning acts.
In addition to Captain Jack Sparrow’s character alter, Johnny Depp will not satisfy the audience with his performance of Sparrow. Since the 2003 original film, Depp has gained worldwide attention of acting as Sparrow. In the case of Dead Men Tell No Tales, though, the entire world seemed to lose interest because of Depp’s final performance as Sparrow. Depp’s performance leads to fans and viewers commenting online about his retirement saving the franchise. After four consecutive blockbuster sequels, Depp’s performance in Dead Men Tell No Tales foreshadows an empty stretch of water ahead for the franchise to cover.
Though it had a massive production budget, the film proves that nothing will save this movie from drowning. The movie will not fulfill anyone’s expectation of a great movie because it entirely changes Captain Jack Sparrow’s character. Besides, the plotlines are similar to the other sequels of the franchise. Either way, Dead Men Tell No Tales, is a merchandising film and will neither entertain fans nor everyday moviegoers.… Expand

It felt like an attempt at just wringing out more money out of the franchise by throwing together a cast of proven together characters but not really trying anything new. The Storyline wasn't any good at all.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A very disappointing film. The excitement was there from the announcement of Pirates 5: Dead Mean Tell No Tales. That was until I saw the trailers released for the movie. Something was wrong with Jack Sparrow? This wasn't the same great pirate captain that's graced our screens for the first 4 movies. It's as if he'd had a stroke after stranger tides, he's lost some of his accent, has turned into more of an alcoholic than ever(we know he loves rum but come on!) It's like he's a different pirate all together. It's as if Disney have tried to reboot the franchise by starting over but have ruined it completely. Similar love story to Will and Elizabeth in Curse of The Black Pearl but different-ish origins for Henry and Carina. Henry has a father, like Elizabeth did whereas Carina doesn't, like Will but it turns out her father is a pirate like will found out about his father. Salazar is a nice touch to the film but a desperately thought up ''villain'' as you will to continue a story arc with so much potential. So for Salazar to be free, Jack had to give the compass away for the Devils Triangle to crumble. Where as in previous films he had given it away and nothing happened. The Trident of Poseidon was never mentioned at the end of Stranger Tides but the fountain of youth was mentioned at the end of Worlds End. The only real thing that stayed true to the 4 original films was the crew of the Black Pearl, as they've not changed. They're funny, and really go together well with the scenes they're put in. Originally Pirates of The Caribbean was meant to be about Jack Sparrow. But with the first 3 movies he got lost in the real main story that was Elizabeth and Will. Stranger Tides was a nice touch to actually see a Jack Sparrow solo film with Barbosa and familiar pirate company. There is no follow up to Stranger Tides and It's been about 20 years in the film timeline. Jack hasn't aged a day. He didn't even get to use the fountain of youth so they need to explain that one. The story arc they gave Barbosa wasn't too bad but again so many plot holes, especially from the moment he eyes the journal and says he's seen it before. You immediately get alarm bells that Carina is his daughter..... I'm being generous giving it a 3. Disney why have you ruined this franchise!!! Don't go and watch it, you'll waste your money. Might be something for the 'new' generation of kids. But if you're a true fan of the franchise, you'll know that this film is awful. It sucks and it's a massive insult to the previous 4 films. I don't know whether Johnny Depp has lost the ability to play Jack Sparrow, but that's definitely not the Pirate we remember.… Expand

If this movie wasn't Pirates of the Caribbean, and you'd expect an okayish pirate movie with alternating comedy and adventure sequences, you'll be satisfied.

Johnny Depp has finally lost the character of Jack Sparrow, overdoing him at every turn and lending nothing to the story except poorly done comedic relief. Never has Jack Sparrow been so useless, so overly drunk and devoid of any cleverness. The humor picks at all the extremely low-hanging fruit. Even the atmosphere throughout is off, the inability to create tension as obvious as Carina's contrite lineage.

At one point, a shark literally jumps over a boat (an inversion of "jumping the shark" geddit? har har) as if the filmmakers were winking at the moviegoers. They were saying "we know how bad of a movie we've made, but we've still got your money."

Unfortunately, this is true. And I paid full price.… Expand

Fanboys of the Pirates franchise will find some enjoyment out of this film, but for the rest of us, it's almost a complete mess. First off, the plot is wildly redundant to the predecessors in a lame attempt to recapture the glory of the earlier films. It features Jack alongside a young girl and guy (not to be confused with Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann) on a mission while being hunted by the undead (again). While the acting by the recurring actors and new ones is solid, the characters are not. It was quite sad seeing Jack Sparrow devolve into a drunken idiot from a cunning funny pirate in the first three films, while the new characters were forgettable. The producers and directors seemed to have lost touch with what makes Jack great. Secondly, the action is not nearly as engaging, with a lot of the set pieces seemingly pulled from other non-pirates movies. Lastly, the film is far too long and not fun enough. Although it has a few nice moments, Dead Men Tell No Tales is a tale that should not have been told.… Expand

Well, America's been in a toxic relationship with Disney for thirty years now, and it's time to break up.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Thirteen years after the events of At World's End, twelve-year-old Henry Turner boards the Flying Dutchman and informs his father, Will Turner, that the curse which binds Will to the Dutchman and only permits him to step on land once a decade can be broken by the Trident of Poseidon. Henry intends to recruit Captain Jack Sparrow to help find it, but Will believes this is impossible and orders Henry to leave. Will and the Dutchman then disappear into the sea, but Henry vows to find Jack and the Trident.

Nine years later, Henry is a sailor in the British Royal Navy. The ship sails into the supernatural Devil's Triangle and stumbles upon the wreck of the Silent Mary, whose ghostly crew led by Spanish pirate-hunter Captain Salazar attack. Salazar spares Henry's life to deliver a message to Jack: Salazar is coming for him.

In Saint Martin, a young astronomer and horologist named Carina Smyth is sentenced to death for witchcraft but escapes and briefly crosses paths with Jack as he and his crew spectacularly blunder a bank robbery. Having suffered years of such bad luck, Jack's crew lose faith and abandon him. Depressed, Jack trades his magical compass for a drink. However, this betrayal of the compass frees Salazar and his crew from the Devil's Triangle. Carina learns Henry is looking for the Trident's location and offers to help him using her unknown father's diary. Carina and Jack are captured and face execution, but are saved by Henry and Jack's crew, setting sail on the Dying Gull. Carina deciphers clues that the stars will lead to an island where the Trident is hidden.

Meanwhile, Captain Barbossa hears from his pirate crew that the revived Captain Salazar has killed several pirates at sea and is destroying Barbossa's fleet. Barbossa manages to talk his way out of being killed by offering to help find Jack and learns that the Trident could lead him to a new "treasure". Salazar agrees, wanting revenge on the pirate that caused his demise. Salazar pursues the Dying Gull, forcing Jack, Henry, and Carina to flee to an island, discovering that Salazar's crew cannot go on land. After saving Jack from a forced marriage, Barbossa allies himself with Jack, returning his compass and restoring the miniaturized Black Pearl, trapped in a bottle by Blackbeard, to its original size. They all continue their journey to the Trident's island, with Barbossa taking command of the Pearl once more. During the voyage, Jack and Barbossa realize Carina is the latter's long-lost daughter. Barbossa tells Jack that he had left her at an orphanage with his diary so she could live a better life, and refuses to tell her the truth so she will continue to believe her father was an astronomer.

Approaching the Trident's island, the Pearl evades a British Navy warship, which is destroyed by the Silent Mary before the Pearl runs aground on the island. Jack, Barbossa, and Carina use the island's magic to part the ocean and open a path to the Trident's location on the ocean floor. Salazar captures Henry and possesses him in order to walk on the ocean floor and seize the Trident. Once he does so, Henry is given his body back, and Jack distracts Salazar, allowing Henry to destroy the Trident, breaking all curses upon the sea and restoring Salazar's crew to life. However, the divided sea begins to collapse in on itself. The Pearl lowers its anchor to lift them to safety, but Salazar pursues them, still hell-bent on killing Jack. Carina realizes that Barbossa is her father when she spots a tattoo on his arm identical to the diary's cover. Barbossa sacrifices himself to kill Salazar, allowing the others to escape alive.

Sometime later, Henry and Carina reach Port Royal, where Will appears, free from the Dutchman. His wife, Elizabeth, appears moments later and the Turner family reunites. Henry and Carina kiss. Jack watches from the Pearl in faux-disgust before sailing away into the horizon, having been accepted by his crew as their captain once again, while also adopting Captain Barbossa's now-homeless monkey.… Expand
