Tacticalin An absolute waste of money

SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

tommy-16126 I went into this movie with mix feelings, after the first 3 movies I loved the franchise and everything about it. Captain Jack Sparrow, Pirate lord of the Caribbean. I knew these movie were meant to be a comedy but I did love the scenes watching captain Jack, sword fights, devious plans and actually being a good pirate. Then you reach "Dead men tell no tales" which seemed more of a joke to me, Jack is portrayed as a coward who runs from a fight and doesn't even seem like he knows how to use his sword. he has completely failed as a pirate. The film has no daring sword fights or ship battles. Then you later encounter Will Turner who I dont even seem to know why he is in the movie, I get it is meant to tie in his happy ending, but in the third movie they make out he is happy to take on the responsibility of the Flying Dutchmen but then it sits at the bottom of the Ocean for 19 years. His son gets attacked and later Captured why couldn't dear old dad come to the rescue and see and awesome ghost ship battle. All together i think it is a very poor movie full of plot holes that they don't explain What happened to Black Beards magic ship that Barbosa took over? Why did Jack all of a sudden get bad luck, I know they hint Barbosa got a Witch to take care of his enemies, myself was curious if that caused Jacks bad luck but they never confirmed. What happened to the other bag full of ships Jack stole from Black Beard? The only reason i give it a 4/10 is due to the fact i believe the part of the fool that jack is meant to be was still played very well and i liked the back story it added regarding the compass.

davidgcthuss 1. It's a too big time jump letting Henry Turner & /Name of some Star/ Smith take the romance role of Will and Elisabeth 2.(SPOILER) Barbossa dies and is the Fayer of Mrs. Smith, doesn't fit at all into Barbossas Character 3.I think Jonny Depp has rusted in playing Sparrow...The first Three movies even the fourth were good played and in that way that it looks that it was the same person over the movies. But In this movie jack sparrow seems to be diffrent... with blonder hair, with an other type of walk and with a slight deeper voice... I like Jonny Depp, but I don't like this Movie...It has Ruined th Pirates of the Caribbean Saga

bradinhanson I didn't expect much. Most of the previous pirates I gave a 5 or a 6. The first pirates got an instant 10. This one I gave a masterfully done 9. I was blown out of the water. I greatly cared for a character. It was none other than barbossa. Intentions behind every character was revealing, abundant, and satisfying. This movie was a thrill ride and was very unexpected how it turned out for me. Thank you for a WONDERFUL treat.

deinaeira (A liitle bit predictable as well. Still enjoyable though)When we first saw the Pirates of the Carribean film with Captain Jack Sparrow, there were lots of indications about Jack's past. And everyone was curious as hell. But now, everyone is unhappy with it..what do you mean you are bored? Too much movies? I do not understand that we got the story, we got the film - it looks pretty swell too- and people are not satisfied. Don't you lie to us or yourself, this is what all of us were wondering about. How he got the compass? How did he become captain? This movie has the answers, let's just enjoy.
