Trivia

(At around one hour and fifty-five minutes) The coda ending where Henry Turner (Brenton Thwaites) waits for his father Will (Orlando Bloom) and the Flying Dutchman was filmed shot-by-shot in a similar manner as the post-credits sequence in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011).

Goofs

Carina Smyth's trial and conviction for witchcraft is not realistic of the time period. The last execution for witchcraft in England was in 1716, with the Witchcraft Act of 1738 completely abolishing the practice in 1736 all over the British Empire. The movie is set in 1755.

User Reviews

The Franchise Is Still Working Very Well

After watching with very low expectations to "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales", it is hard to understand the legion of haters that write in IMDb. The film is not a masterpiece but is funny, entertaining, with great cast, special effects, screenplay and story. Johnny Depp performs the wolf, drunken and smart Captain Jack Sparrow in the usual funny way. Cinema lovers of fantasy-adventure genre must ignore the bad reviews and question what this kind of people that writes that the movie is not good like to see or if they have difficulties to understand a story with many characters. My vote is seven.
