After I watched the trailer I thought it might be not so good as Gore Verbinski's trilogy. Perhaps, it will be like the last one, I thought. But after I watched "Dead Men Tell No Tales" I decided to write my first review ever.
From the very beginning, I plunged into action. Scene after scene I watched sluggish events with poor lines that hardly give an excuse for the actions of the characters. The story is built on past movies success and lies (there are small, but very notable inconsistencies), which is unacceptable even for Hollywood.
The most daring, tricky, witty and sexy pirate Jack has become a silly and shabby drunkard, who doesn't deserve even a one-legged moldy prostitute from Tortuga. Brenton Thwaites and Kaya Scodelario's characters were remembered by inconclusive speeches and expressive decollete (close-ups). The lines of Captain Salazar are illegible, and breathing sounds unhealthy even for a dead man. Oh,and the worst part is an old chestnut from Sir Paul McCartney's cameo.
In this picture there are no beautiful landscapes and spectacular panoramas. Some scenes looks like a rehearsal for a theatrical performance. Too many visual effects, led by unnatural image of a young Jack Sparrow. There were so many visual effects that the ship and some crew members of Captain Salazar cannot be seen in the literal sense.
At last, spoilers, sorry. The trident is shaped like the Harry's broom Nimbus 2000. Carina Smith's tear-stained red eyes are "up in smoke". And the death of captain Barbossa is very "die hard".
I do not know who was at the wheel actually, but he deliberately sent the "Dead Men Tell No Tales" ship to the reefs and smashed it to pieces. In the end, I felt nothing but chagrin and disappointment.
