Soundtracks Preludio of Sonata No. Malpede as William Malpede. User reviews Review. Top review. A mediocre film from a dying series of great films. Sadly, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales was just a mediocre film from a dying series of great films, and this film honestly brings nothing new to the table for this series. In a time full of cinematic universes, and unnecessary reboots, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales doesn't do anything special to wow audiences like it originally did almost 15 years ago.
The film was full of mediocre acting, writing, visuals, and music, and is a film that will honestly just end up being forgotten like the film that came before it. It's heartbreaking to say, but I have to agree with what Mark Kennedy from the Associated Press said about this film. FAQ 6. Why is Captain Salazar after Jack? Jack has given his compass away before, how come that never released Salazar?
Didn't Tia Dalma give Jack the Compass? Files: Pirates. There are currently no comments. Feel free to leave one :. You will be redirected in 3 seconds. The first half of the second sequel, Dead Man's Chest, charts a fun familiar course but then quickly delves into an unnecessarily complicated abyss where humor goes out the window. Waterlogging the storyline with confusing, long, and, frankly, dull otherworldly tangents was merely done to stretch out a thin plot to accommodate a third flick, At World's End.
In Dead Men Tell No Tales, said tale lacks originality, the comedy falls flat and the action fails to throw off any sparks. In fact, it's a tale that shouldn't have been told at all. It's not as if moviegoers were clamoring for more high seas hijinks from a series that was left for Dead years ago. Johnny Depp's brilliantly daft Keith Richards-inspired take on the character was once considered so "risky" that Disney flirted with firing the actor for such an off-beat portrayal.
With his latest take on the pirate, it seems like he is imitating his past performances--not channeling the character. Javier Bardem stands and delivers just fine but it's hard to distinguish his ghostly heavy from that of Bill Nighy's Davy Jones in the grand scheme of things. The Pirates of the Caribbean series may have already had a sinking feeling but their miscalculated take on the humor and explosive set pieces in the movie just dashes whatever remained of the series against the rocks.
Jeff B Super Reviewer. Mar 25, With poor plotting, inconsistent pacing and a rushed sense of chemistry amongst the new cast Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales exposes the swashbuckling sequel as nothing more than a cash-grab that's as hollow as the ships they occupy.
Feb 25, Pirates of the Caribbean is an interesting franchise. Interesting indeed. I don't necessarily mean that I find the world and its characters fascinating, because I really don't. I just mean its reasons for continuing to exist in this day and age when, really, people don't really care about the franchise anymore. I shouldn't say that, since I'm sure the hardcore Pirates fans love this franchise, I just mean that mainstream audiences sort of gave up on the franchise by the end of the first sequel.
These films are still commercially successful worldwide, but there's something to be said about the fact that this is the second-lowest grossing entry in the franchise. People have just grown tired, as there seems to be no real growth within the franchise. Say what you will about the MCU, but they've found new ways to avoid franchise fatigue because they find new twists and angles.
They also find different stories to tell within their universe. And, naturally, every installment in this franchise tells a different story, but it's got a very familiar feeling to where it feels like you're watching the same movie over and over again. These films nowadays are produced simply because the Pirates name, as watered down as it is, is still a lucrative franchise for Disney and they can make a lot of money off of it, still.
But it's obvious that they don't consider Pirates an A-team franchise anymore. Marvel and Star Wars have taken over. There was a time when Pirates was one of the biggest properties for Disney. Now, it's just one of many. As far as I can remember, the film was way too fucking long. Me and the friends I watched it with lamented this fact. There were seriously like 'climactic' scenes where you thought 'ok, this is where it ends' and it just kept going.
Pacing was horrendous. Plot was convoluted, but, at the time, I felt there was still enough of the old Pirates to make Dead Man's Chest enjoyable. But that was it for me. I didn't bother with At World's End. I've never seen that from beginning to end. Nor have I seen On Stranger Tides. I probably wouldn't have bothered with this movie either if it wasn't for the fact that it was available on Netflix.
Every time I hear of a new Pirates movie I'm like 'Really? They're making another one of those? I don't think that's a reaction you want. The only thing that made me give this more than a second glance, prior to release, was the fact that Javier Bardem was the main villain.
And, if you've followed my reviews, you know that I love this man and the intensity he brings to all the roles he plays. He was the main reason I gave this a shot and, quite frankly, because I wanted something a little lighter to watch. I haven't actually settled on a score yet at this point in the review, but if I'm perfectly honest, I found this to be a perfectly solid blockbuster. Yes, you heard that correctly.
I'm not suggesting that the character of Jack Sparrow or Johnny Depp for that matter has not jumped the shark a thousand times over, but that doesn't mean that the character still can't provide some entertainment. My POTC consumption has been kept to an absolute minimum since then. So what felt old in might not necessarily feel that way today. I also welcome the simply approach to the story.
The problem with the first two Pirates sequel, at least from what I saw, was the fact that they had to top themselves. Everything had to be bigger and louder. There just had to be more of absolutely everything. It was a movie of excesses and it just didn't know how to handle multiple plot threads adeptly. I assume that At World's End was more of the same.
I can't comment on On Stranger Tides, but it seems that it simplified things down from the film's peak of excess. This movie, thankfully, keeps that simplicity. Hell, the movie doesn't even go over two hours before the credits start to roll. There's a post-credits scene teasing, yes, the continuation of the franchise. I felt like this is a spiritual sequel to the original, which still remains one of the best summer blockbusters I've ever seen, in that it feels closer to it in tone and pacing than any of the other flicks in the franchise.
The plot follows a group of characters searching for this MacGuffin, Poseidon's Trident, that apparently cures any curse at sea, no matter how long that curse has been in effect. Henry Turner wishes to find the Trident to save his father from his curse of being part of the crew of the Flying Dutchman for the rest of his life, where he can only step on land once a decade.
Jack Sparrow wants the Trident so he can break the curse of Salazar and his men, who are out to kill him for what he did that resulted in them being cursed. And Corina wants to find the Trident to fulfill her father's whom she never met lifelong ambition. That's it. That's all there is to the movie. You don't know how thankful I am for that. The movie is easy to follow and there's a clear endgame is sight. There's no real distractions like unnecessary subplots. I don't wanna say every scene is there to lead to the climax, because it's not like absolutely everything here is relevant to the plot or moving it forward, there's some diversions that are all about giving Jack Sparrow some more comedic scenes.
But, by and large, the main plot threads all help to move our characters toward the Trident. One of the things I will give the Pirates franchise and that is their ability to craft some very visually memorable villains.
The first two sequels come to mind instantly, some of the designs for the villains were tremendous. I think Salazar and his men are a little more toned back than those scene in Dead Man's Chest and At World's End, but I still found them to be a surprisingly effective group of villains. There's enough here to where the normal spectator ie: not a movie nerd like me might find them to look creepy, as Salazar's men look exactly like they did at the moment they died. For example, Salazar is missing part of the back of his head.
One of them doesn't even have the top of his head, just the mouth and chin and the rest of his body naturally. And I thought they looked cool.
Plus, again, Javier Bardem brings an intensity that adds an air of legitimacy to his group of villains. The film has plenty of action. Some might say too much, but there's some pretty cool moments I felt. The whole scene with the guillotine was actually really cool. The first set-piece of the horses pulling the actual bank building with them, on top of an actual several-ton safe, is a little unrealistic, but a fun way to reintroduce the characters.
