I'll be honest, I've seen the other four movies, so I didn't expect much from this 5th installment. What I didn't want or expect was that they went "Star Wars Episode 7" on me. That's one of the worst sins of all cinema history. They literally sold out, re-booked the first movie by adding two characters and had Johnny Depp be his usual self. Still, seeing Depp in the guillotine scene was probably worth an entire star by itself for the absolute absurdity of it all.

Of course, it should be said it's a Disney film and it's mainly for kids though certainly the hint that he had sex with the mayor's wife was a little racy even for this film. Still, I pray in future installments they don't sell out. I mean, this was a "let's re-boot a film and get the profit." Perhaps with a little money, they'll have real writers for the next film, which will involve at least 3 of these characters.

I felt that this movie really brought a satisfying conclusion to the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' film series. Suspenseful, funny, and heartwarming. I liked the new characters/actors. Johnny Depp is always great to watch.

Amazingly, surprisingly adequate.

It was ok. It was pretty confusing though. Also this movie is not really for young kids. It was weird but also interesting.

The first one is the only good one in this franchise. There, I said it.

Decent job for this fifth film of the series. Follows the adventures of an extremely lucky pirate, Captain Jack Sparrow and his faithful crew on yet another romp on the high seas.
As much as some of the antics, go beyond belief, it has amazing special effects and imagination.
Bonus feature on the DVD, has a 6 minute behind-the-scenes with crew member, Gibbs (played by Kevin McNally, one of few that have been in all five films).
Will there be a sixth? It was five years between films of No. 4 and No.5.

First Pirates movie I had seen. Saw it in theaters. I thought it was funny, fast, and exciting. I have a hard time hating movies. This one was great. Javier Bardem's character is funny to me. Love the effects.

Yeah, nope. I mean I love the Pirates of the Caribbean, but this one wasn't... good enough. I guess it probably didn't help that I watch the movies, 1,4,3,2, then, five, because by the time five came around I was all mixed up, but I still found it rather boring, story wasn't good, and most of the time the things happening were just to silly for me, like with the bank? (You'll have to watch it to understand what I'm saying about the bank in the beginning) Sorry Jack sparrow but, This one, sucked. I wouldn't recommend it.

This movie isn't about soulless abominations, it is a soulless abomination. It's like a some random Disney VP said, "Let's make another Pirates movie. What did we do in the other ones? Do things like that. I don't care about the story or the acting, just make it do the things." And so they did that.

Time to lose Johnny Depp!
