With each installment, the franchise gets worse.

Rating: 2/10 (7 September 2017)

Hijole what a piece of crap. This movie reminds me too much of Grownups 2. It's like the writer and director watched the previous movies, made notes of what people laughed at and then randomly put that in this movie, with no cohesion, and then filmed the movie as a bunch of sketches with huge time lapses in between.
It was painfully obvious that Barbossa's two new comical reliefs were there to replace Pintel and Ragetti from the other movies. Only these had no personality and frankly, did not serve any purpose. Speaking of Barbossa, the only reason (I suspect) he is in this movie is because he was in the others. That's about as much point he has.
Johnny Depp appears as if he's sick of the character and only does it because of the money/contract. Also the story of him getting the nickname "The Sparrow" because he was standing on the lookout, yelling at Salazar (who then died-ish), and this being explained by Salazar makes no sense. Did he become undead, killed off a bunch of people, let one go to spread the tale of Jack, so he could get nicknamed "Sparrow"? Salazar apparently became cursed because the writers liked the idea. No explanation is really given. On top of that, he's an extremely boring character.
The ending with Kiera's character magically appearing is just stupid.
Horrible, horrible film.
