Thrust into an all-new adventure, a down-on-his-luck Capt. Jack Sparrow feels the winds of ill-fortune blowing even more strongly when deadly ghost sailors led by his old nemesis, the evil Capt. Salazar, escape from the Devil's Triangle. Jack's only hope of survival lies in seeking out the legendary Trident of Poseidon, but to find it, he must forge an uneasy alliance with a brilliant and beautiful astronomer and a headstrong young man in the British navy.

Critics Consensus

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales proves that neither a change in directors nor an undead Javier Bardem is enough to drain this sinking franchise's murky bilge.

As lumbering as its title, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales will leave you running for the plank, or the exit.

Oh, if only dead men told no tales. Then we might have avoided this fifth Pirates of the Caribbean adventure, which fails to justify its own existence in any way whatsoever.

There are lame, crude jokes about bottoms and horologists. There is $230 million of CG effects that never look like anything more than pixels. And then there's Depp's panto drunkenness.

This is an unnecessary film that delivers exactly what the audience expects in the most uninteresting ways.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tells No Tales is not a great film by any means. It is a passable finale to a franchise that has lasted longer than anyone ever anticipated.

Judge it accordingly, I suppose. The newest Pirates film isn't all that great, but it is enjoyable. If this series be your fancy, sail away. If not, stay at the dock. After all, dead-bored movie watchers tell no tales.

The start is amazing, as with all the other movies, being the only reason I gave it more then half a star. A COMPLETE copy of the second and third movie, just different (in a bad way) in some aspects. Spanish Davy Jones can't touch land and is immortal unless you break a certain object, just like normal Davy Jones, and let's not pretend that he's "unique" and "his own character" because he's not. He's not Salazar. He's Spanish Davy Jones. The two new characters, Henry Turner and Annoying Woman, are extremely one dimensional and annoying. Henry has just two personality traits being "good guy, fight for what's right" and comedic relief. Annoying Woman is a bratty, self obsessed know-it-all that we're all supposed to love, and are we all just going to pretend that we haven't seen the "my father is NOT a pirate" plot before. Not only does it attempt to revive a dead plot point, but they make it so important, making Annoying even more annoying because she can't accept the truth.

Deserves credit for the amazing set pieces and cinematography / digital effects. Might appeal to die hard Pirates of the Caribbean admirers. Writing and directing could be of higher standard. Whole cast convincing in character. Jack's wisecracks rouse the occasional smile. Fast paced, lots of action and dead men walking 😜

The movie has the air-brushed too-perfect feel of AI art, except in this case it's due to an over-reliance on green screens instead of real locations and backdrops. A lot of the staple Pirates of the Caribbean characters are missing, and those that are left don't feel like they used to. The new arrivals could have breathed some new life into the movie (maybe even the franchise) if they weren't so one-dimensional.
