What to Know

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.

Kristen Lopez Culturess As lumbering as its title, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales will leave you running for the plank, or the exit. Nov 20, 2017 Full Review Angie Han Mashable 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. Jun 13, 2017 Full Review Tara Brady Irish Times 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. Rated: 2/5 Jun 6, 2017 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review This is an unnecessary film that delivers exactly what the audience expects in the most uninteresting ways. Rated: 2/4 Apr 4, 2022 Full Review David Gonzalez The Cinematic Reel 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. Rated: 2.5/4 Feb 18, 2022 Full Review Cory Woodroof Curnblog 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.

BadWulf Great movie must see Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/18/25 Full Review Alfred Junior T It brought more stories and more tales and still is more hilarious and adventurous Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/22/25 Full Review Obi-wan K I loved aome parts but it had issues and more but the ending was peak Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/10/25 Full Review Jake E Not a bad movie but definitely the weakest in the franchise Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/07/25 Full Review Grace K Absolute shitshow. If you watched the trilogy (which was a cinematic masterpiece that had strategy, complexity, piracy, a tint of humor but mixed with a lot of charisma and clash of different characters focusing on the same goal for different reasons) then comes this joke of a film that turns The Legendary Captain Jack Sparrow into an absolute joke. If you loved the trilogy, please do not watch this. They’ve spat on the Jack and made him look like a real fool. No character development of anyone else in the film whatsoever, and especially Barbossa; His scene and contribution to the story was So embarrassing I absolutely hated what they did to him. It was a violation to his reputation and all the 5 films of character development he had, was thrown down a pit. Hate it with everything. Disrespectful to the POC franchise. Please don’t bother making the 6th. This series should’ve ended with “The Worlds End” Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/21/25 Full Review 21 - Priyan B Worth a watch.
