There's more to Pirates than simply Jack Sparrow

Rating: 9/10 (29 May 2017)

It stands to reason that any synopsis of a Pirates of the Caribbean movie would center around the main character in the franchise, Jack Sparrow. Unfortunately, I think that ship has sailed. People are tired of following Jack as he drunkenly stumbles into the right situation. The best part of Dead Men Tell No Tales is that the story focuses on the journey of the other 3 characters: Henry, Carina, and Captain Salazar, as Jack is more of a plot device to bring those stories together. The film has more heart than 3 & 4, with a storyline that's much easier to follow. I enjoyed it greatly. Especially the conclusion of the movie. And be sure to stay for the after credits scene. It looks like they're setting up Pirates 6! Great fun.
