New Blood in an Older Series

Rating: 8/10 (13 October 2015)

Let's just say I was disappointed before the movie even started. To me the movie series wasn't all just Captain Jack. Pirates of the Caribbean isn't the same without Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley. It's also probably for the best. With all the same characters as the last it would run the risk of being the same movie over and over again. Penelope Cruz did add to the movie. I hate to say since I'm not a fan of her. This movie is just nothing without Johnny Depp. He makes the movie. Everyone loves Captain Jack for a reason. He's oddly charming, yet humorous and serious all at once. Nothing wrong with a few sword fights and new characters. Fresh blood in and old established series can be nice.
