The former stars like Sparrow and Barbossa completely lost their charm and charisma due to an unbearably bad written script. Jack Sparrow used to be a smart and fun character that eventually would amaze his surroundings. But instead in this 5th sequel he turned into an expired pirate who only communicates via short one-liners with no comedic content. This was by far the worst movie I've seen since many years back and it was a complete disappointment.… Expand

It has its moments, but there is an uneven plot throughout. Jack is drunk for half of it, which has never been his character type before, worst of all it wasnt even funny, it was just annoying. The lead up to the big finale is rushed, its almost as if the film makers were rushing it towards the end. Javier Bardems performance is the films saving grace, he brings a fresh face to the film, and a eerily creepy character. Overall this film is disappointing, but with some high points. If you're a fan of the franchise by all means go and see it, but go with an open mind, and the knowledge that you will almost certainly be disappointed.… Expand

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales is a true return to form. The feeling I got when I first watched this was the same feeling I got when I watched Star Wars: The Force Awakens. It reminded me of the excitement of the early movies, the intrigue, and the sense of wonder, all captured in the first movie. After the so-so Pirates 3 and Pirates 4 (which I feel was the worst of the series), this is the Pirates' return to form. It has everything. It's got action like Fast & Furious, it's got familiarity like Star Wars, it's got heart and jokes like, well, the first Pirates of the Caribbean. And of course, FANTASTIC CGI - I couldn't stop staring at that "floating hair" of Captain Salazar! This is a movie beautifully made for those who longed for the excitement of the first one. The characters are all fleshed out well - Henry Turner, Carina Smyth (hint: I won't throw spoilers here about her name), Captain Barbossa and of course, aye, silly old Jack Sparrow. You'd be missing out big time if you listened to the useless professional critics. Watch it, and decide for yourself. Thankfully, I always ignore pro critics - they're the most unreliable bunch when it comes to movies. Ultra highly recommended if you liked the first Pirates. This installment has truly redeemed the series. Go Pirates!… Expand

Better than expected; new characters also added to the storyline; Jack Sparrow is still funny & entertaining; worth seeing in a theater. There is one post-credit scene hinting at another sequel at the end of the movie scroll.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. High expectations = high disappointment. I am sorry but Barbosa's death was not emotional to me! That "tatoo" on his hand is USELESS and pathetic since it appears SECONDS before his death. Also - where the f was Will? He could've helped. And its pity that they never met with Jack. However i liked "Salazar" as a villian but still - if they could escape from the triangle whenever Jack betrays his compass, he did it many times before so... and by the way Paul's scene was such a marketing move. At least, he deserved a better joke than that. The "witch girl" should've been Davy Jones' daughter... makes more sense. Whatever. A decent movie. Such a shame.… Expand

I came from cinema few hours ago and have fresh, thoughtful idea of this movie. IFirst of all I need to mention that I am A HUGE, HUUUUGE fan of the series, and the letdown of the 4th had much more negative effect on me than to non-fans. I came from cinema few hours ago and have fresh, thoughtful idea of this movie. I COMPLETELY disagree with "top" critics.
Let's start from good! I was not expecting it to be this good, this is WAY better than 4th, I think all can agree with this. Acting of supporting cast is great, story is pretty good and the cinematography is just perfect. The "young Jack" scene was good enough but still the CGI was noticeable. Now a bit of sad news: I did not like the "young couple" actors much and the ending was too cheesy, too Disney-ified.
Johnny Depp definitely feels tired here, tired of acting. I see less action and thrill when he is on screen.
First act with Depp was fun but silly, too silly, even for Pirates.
The idea of Salazar was very good and the connection with previous movies and movie logic made me "huuuh...I see...that's how it works I guess"...
But the jokes are dragged a lot, missing sometimes and Jack's comebacks are not funny. Plot very conveniently helps Barbosa, and for some reason has no connection with previous characters from 1,2,3 and 4 movies that much.
We see a very little of other known characters but some are never mentioned.
Also I noticed some continuity errors. And finally, the ending...
it makes sense but at the same time does not...I keep asking so many questions like why would that character do that and not what we expect? And of course why would the end of one character's story be in a such a dumb way...?
I really did not like how the handled Barbosa character in particular.
So...after all, I enjoyed the movie! It had its moments and freshness and oldness as well. 3.5/5 just because it kinda revived itself from disaster of 4th but also because this is the last movie....kinda... because there IS AN AFTER CREDITS SCENE...yeah....have a look… Expand

Somehwere along the way however I was just done with this movie. It landed in the no-go area of not being anything too good or too bad. It wasn't memorable. In fact, I forgot most of what happened in the movie when I left the theatre. The pacing is ridiculously off. The first half or so of the film feels like exposition. The unlikely trio only set off on their quest in the last hour or so. When they finally get going, it feels like nothing happens besides cliche and completely unbelievable dramatic dialogues wherein the characters spell out for you some plot point in clunky wordage (or in oddly placed and overstayed memory sequences). Every bloated and overly explicit dramatic dialogue piece (matched only by the odd shift to blue humor dialogue) dragged on in what felt like an eternity. It felt like watching a formula: dramatic dialogue + action sequence + dramatic dialogue+ action sequence... ad infinitum. For all its movement it didn't feel like it was going anywhere. The action felt inconsequential since you know the way it will turn out (Captain Jack will pull some wacky trick out of his hat). The movie didn't make us care about the characters in new ways. It just shamelessly plugged the tired, old formula (and in less style than its predecessors). Lastly, you could really tell that Johnny Depp was not fully invested in this role. His acting seems slightly 'off' (who can blame him) and the writing for his character has him revel as a drunkard for most of the film, never hashing out what could have been a meaningful character arc for the familiar character, electing instead to never show the audience the significance of the story to Jack. It astounded me how little Jack seemed to care about being there; he was not the only one. I really wasn't expecting much from this movie. Unfortunately, it did nothing to change my mood going into it. In fact, it did the worst thing a movie can do: it met all my expectations.… Expand

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

Johnny Depp has finally lost theA truly terrible film from beginning to end with so many plot-holes and contradictions to the franchise's history that it'll make you wonder if the writer's had seen any of the previous film beforehand. 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

Going back to the roots of the franchise (at least in plot) the fifth installment of the swasbuckling Disney's series is a lot more fun and entretaining that the previous one, with all around mostly funny lines, a heist that is easily one of the best moments of the franchise and a full circle in its story for the main characters of the series. While Johny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow will probably never be as cool and interesting as he was whe the series started, I can say that al least in this movie he seems to try harder and that helps him be fun for the most part. The new characters are a little bit on the nose, but as a said, back to basics seems to do, and after all, in this kind of movies the basics work for the better. The villain is interesting for the most part and Javier Barden plays him fine, and the connection they make to Jack's past is actually very intersting. So all in all, an ok to good movie, with nice action, some funny lines, and good score all around. And really, just hearing the familiar notes of Klaus Badelt's theme makes me want to draw my sword and sail to the horizon, so the movie doesn't have to do much to entretain. This movie is not better that the first three, but at the very least, is does much better than the last one and gives me hope that the finale that is most certainly coming can recapture the seas at least one last time. Recommended for pirate's fans or action movie fans that are not expecting a grand thins. For everybody else, if you have a free afternoon maybe you can watch it, but don't expect that much.… Expand

I thought Brenton Thwaites was also a good casting as Will Turner's son even though his character is a bit forgettable (hence I can't remember his name). This movie is sloppy in terms of execution, pacing is all over the place, editing is also choppy and could have been done better. I also found it sad that they took away Jack Sparrow's wit that made him such a great character in the first one and kinda turned him into a drunken buffoon, who while is still fun to watch on screen there just isn't this aura that he is always two steps ahead of you. In the end, this movie is pretty up-and-down but its entertaining nonetheless and should please fans of the franchise.… Expand

However, if you're a big fan of the previous installments and/or you go into this one expecting what it is -- an inane, yet harmless cgi-fest featuring a couple engaging action sequences and an always watchable performance from Johnny Depp -- you might be a bit more entertained than you thought you'd be.… Expand

Для человека, который смотрел не одну сотню фильмов, тут найдётся очень много предсказуемых моментов, настолько предсказуемых, что за 40 минут до конца понятно, что этого персонажа убьют, именно это событие произойдёт и т.п. Я бы прощал эту предсказуемость, если бы видел что-нибудь новое, стоящее, но нет, всё уже обыгрывалось в прошлых частях. Тут и Джек, у которого всё те же манеры, речь, движения, сам образ уже изжил себя. Тут опять злодей, который, о боги, (спойлер) проиграет, слава хэппи эндам. Тут заменили харизматичных и интересных персонажей из прошлых частей какими-то не имеющими толковой истории куклами. Тут и размах прошлых частей куда-то пропал,а ведь в них творилось настолько масштабное действо, что картина до сих пор перед глазами стоит, но в этой части всё как-то камерно. Мне представляется всё это так: эта часть - это маленький склад на окраине города, в котором вроде и происходит какая-то движуха, аля бешеные псы, но что меняется в самом городе, если разнесут этот склад? Любая прошлая часть из трилогии (4-ую не включаем) - это огромная высотка в центре города, в которой происходит множество операций, которые так или иначе влияют на город. Короче говоря, Мертвецы не рассказывают сказки - капля в море, а любая иная часть, кроме 4-ой - и есть море.

The best part of the film character wise was Javier's character Captain Salazar who wasn't a utter travesty like Blackbeard in the last one. The action was fine except for that opening bank robbery scene which was so ridiculous and dialogue was okay but the whole witch thing did get annoying after a while.It does tie up some loose ends and answer some questions which I was happy with. But the final 25 minutes ultimately saves the movie from being a snooze fest. This us suppose to be the ending of the whole series, but I can definitely see them continuing this to milk more money.

By the end I cam out very pleasantly surprised. Javier Bardem is nowhere near as cringe-inducing as I thought he'd be and there's enough returning cast to not make this feel like some sort of B-Roll direct-to-dvd sequel.

Action sequences are entertaining and well spread along the film, unlike At World's End and Jack Sparrow's wackiness has been toned down to more tolerable levels compared to Stranger Tides.

The most satisfying moment is probably the ending though. Without spoiling anything, by the end of the movie it totally feels like all loose ends in the series have been tied and it could be put to sleep or go on with a new cast of characters.

All in all if you're fans of the series, do yourself a favor and go make your own judgement, you might be pleasantly surprised.… Expand

This is easily as good as all the other sequels. Obviously the first film was the standout as it was the original that introduced these characters, settings, stories, soundtrack for the first time in a wholly original and ground-breaking way.

The story in this movie was pretty good the only issue is some of the movies conflict now for a reason I will state later on. I really like the new villain and his motive to kill Jack and I also like how everything comes together in the end and also how they brought the black pearl back I thought that it was very interesting. The only issues I have with the movie is that it changed where Jack got his compass and that even thought William turner played a pretty big part I would have liked to see him and his ship more. But all in all the only movie in the series that I think was better then this one was the first one and that is why I give it a 9 out of 10.… Expand

The plot involves the son of Orlando Bloom's character as he searches for the Trident of Poseidon, which will reverse all nautical curses. Toss in a villain with an underwater special effects visage (Javier Bardem) and the star (Johnny Depp) reviving the eccentric role that's simply gone stale. There's way too much plot discussion, while most of the fights and chases are uninspired. Despite some cool visuals, there's none of the inventiveness of the original. As for comedy, it's completely drowned out by noisy nothing. Lots of activity and bluster, that seldom excites or even entertains. NOTE: Stay thru the credits for a sequel teaser.… Expand

There are a few issues, such as how the end of the a character was handled. This, to me, seemed a little brushed over, and feel s/he should have had a better send off. And some of the CGI was a little distracting.

Nonetheless, if you are a fan of the series, as I am. I'm sure you will enjoy this movie.

Hi, Just watched today. Trust me this movie is awesome. All people and critics have habits of comparing new installment with old one and finding faults.

Im very big fan of this series. and for me stranger tides was pointless part in this series. but this one made my day. This part is full of fun, a lot of jokes, nice story, nice CGI, nice ending, very good cameos.

Yes, it is not perfect movie like first three parts and story is not that much good. (Those part was directed by Gore Verbinski so no doubt if he is not director, movie won't be like first three) but its much better than stranger tides and is very good movie. Full enjoyable from start to end.

Just Go for it.… Expand

Presumably deceased. Johnny Depp does make appearances, of course, but he is not the main character in this version. My feeling is that we have seen it all before.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A fantastic and entertaining action comedy worth being a part of the Pirates of the Carribean franchise. And given the movie's post-credits scene I have no doubt that a sequel or sequels is/are coming. The movie has some interesting takes that are new to the franchise such as background story expansion in a way that we have not seen before, bringing in a new breeze of air with characters that are now more relevant for major characters and not just with this but also with other parts of the plot takes elements and writes something new with them. The problem is though, this movie has several continuity errors and yes, they are continuity errors. You can "somewhat" explain them away as they are not 100% impossible but that would really just be a fan explanation as no actual explanation is given in the story as well as is it not implied or hinted or anything. The lack of details here just shows that several parts of the story just clash with already established lore because there was not given absolute focus to be non-contradictory (such as: Jack got his compass from Calypso as stated in PotC2 but here they show he got it from the former captain; Blackbeard's sword is shown to have its powers as it can free the Pearl but Barbossa for some reason unexplained cannot control Salazar's ship even though the sword can control all ships which was the reason why Blackbeard was able to turn the ships against their captains in the first place, kill the crew and get those ships, continuity errors about the trident and it is very very unlikely that Barbossa has a daughter that seemingly is about 20 years old - even unlikely if she would be about 30 years old - as the plot establishes that Jack knew her mother which would hint that it happened over 30 years ago as Barbossa was cursed 10 years before PoTC1 before he betrayed Jack -> as said, all of it can be somewhat explained, there are no full impossibilities such as Barbossa just returning to that woman after PoTC3 or "Blackbeard's sword cannot control supernatural ships" and "well, the captain got the compass from Calypso and Jack got it from him as well as is Calypso the Goddess of Sea/Sea itself so he still sorta got it from her", but you just notice that there are no actual explanations or hints for them given; it just ends up being non-canonical fan explanation). It is no game breaker as the movie is fantastic nonetheless but it is there.

Overall it is one of my more favourite movies of the franchise and brings some goods twists that I liked a lot.… Expand

The cons - Orlando Bloom, in his short bit through out the film, was just awful. The special effects were not as good as previous films and looked quite awful in some bits. The entire plot was predictable from start to finish. Bardem was a huge disappointment as Salazar, His constant breaking of his accent threw me off the whole film and he just wasn't that good of a villain (I mostly blame the writers because Bardem is a fantastic actor and a personal favorite). The entire was very anti-climactic and did not justice sitting through the nearly two and a half hour run time. Also what is up with Barbossa's sacrifice? It was so freaking needless, They could have set up a better send off for such a good character. I am not sold on Kaya Scodelario as a future lead, She just fits such a type cast role and doesn't really bring anything new to the table.

Overall, It just doesn't live up to other films in the series. I like it slightly more than At Worlds End, which I thought was the worst film of the series, but that's it.… Expand

Expectations is everything with these movies.

While the previous Pirates of the Caribbean (PotC) movie feels more like a spin-off than a direct sequel to the original trilogy, "Dead Men Tell No Tales/Salazar's Revenge" continues the lore of the first 3 movies. While continuity errors are somewhat blatant, you can't say this movie is the worst of the 5 PotC movies. The actions are more grounded than the previous movies, and they managed to salvage themselves after the less-than-mediocre "On Stranger Tides". The humor's there, and just enough. The amount of screen time of Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley probably means that there'll be more of these movies in the future. There's also a familiar feels to the first movie in this one. Perhaps this familiarity is what makes critics hate it. But seriously, if you despised "On Stranger Tides", this one you'll probably like. I'd say this is the best PotC movie since the first one back in early 2000's.

Oh, and Javier Bardem, as always, is menacing as the latest baddie "Capitan Salazar".… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well, there are still Pirates out there. I didn't like the 4th installment, with Blackbear[d] (pun intended), I can't even remember correctly the story, other than "It was pointless". I went to see the 5th because frankly I like Javier Bardem and I knew I was going to enjoy seeing him on the screen, even if the movie is worthless.

Well, I expected worse. This is still an over-the-top movie with Johnny Depp in it, Cameo appearances from Orlando/Keira and a young couple which tries to be the real stars of the show. Henry (the boy/ son of Orlando Bloom) is pretty much well... uninteresting. He has a clear motivation, but nothing much than that. Carina (the girl/ daughter of Barbossa [which we understand only at the end]) was more interesting (is that because I'm a guy ?). She's the only character taking herself seriously and is involved with the emotional stuff ("I found my lost father, only to lose him a few seconds later"), which you may or may not like. I think it's more the actress that stands out more than the role, since what's stuck in my memory is her widely open blue eyes. So I'm not sure if the character itself is so interesting... Everything is over-the-top in PotC, even the serious issues. That's to be expected.

Costumes and design are wonderful imo. It does add to the over-the-top.

Javier Bardem does his job as the Boogeyman and has more screen-time than anybody else, even leading to some insights about Jack Sparrow's past and nickname. However I expected a more frightening presence from the "Dead" members of his crew. They just looked like half the invisible man and half Edward Scissorhands for the most part. I liked the character only because it was one of my favorite actors in the role, not because of the character itself.

Also I had one jump-scare, completely unexpected (as did everyone else in the theater).

Is this movie good ? Well no, but it's not worse than the last one. It's a little improvement, but maybe it would be time to put to rest the franchise, no ?

Yeah I know, this is not really a helpful critic. But at least you know now there is nothing unexpected in this movie (except one specific moment).… 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
