Even the action doesn’t help to pick up the pace, as it lacks the grandness and imagination found in the original trilogy.

This was the perfect mix of genres. The dystopian world that Burke creates was fantastic in a steampunk way. The fact that the characters are pirates adds yet another element. Both main characters, Rose and Miranda, are complex and the romantic tension between them is another element to this already complex plot.

Well written book with a great plot and characters. This book has action, romance, aliens and space pirates. Sara Baysinger is very imaginative, i love the Universe she created. The book can be slow going at times.....but so worth the read! I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Netgalley.

One of my favorites out of the Pirates of the Caribbean series. The plot is interesting and the action scenes are well choreographed. There are a few dull bits and parts that I wasn’t entirely a fan of, but overall a great movie. Great casting and was pleasantly surprised to see some returning cast as well.

WOW!
When I went to see this in the theaters with my fiance @Brad L McKee I thought it was going to be good and then when it ended I was thrilled to find out it was even better than I thought it was going to be. I have to say it's my FAVORITE Pirates of the Caribbean movie so far

Like the storyline. (1 more)
The new characters are good too.
Unnecessary but enjoyable
I enjoy it, it has what you'd expect like the 1st three films but this one feels kind of forced. Worlds End for me was the end of the pirates of the Caribbean franchise but it felt like the writer's were just beating a dead horse with this one.

Enjoyable popcorn flick

This movie had everything that made pirates of the Caribbean 1 a good movie. The acting was pretty good. The chemistry between The rock and Emily blunt was so good and believable. The combination of comedy and the action and the reveal of the immortals is what I think will cement this as a classic over time.

Yo-Ho, what do you get when you based you movie off of a disney ride, a great movie. Yes you read the correctly, this movie is based off of the ride at disney. So how does a 20-30 minute ride turn into a 2h and 20min movie, well you expand it. Expand it and make it have a great plot, good charcters, a great villian and a drunking Johnny Depp or Johnny Depp playing pirate Keith Richards.

The Plot: Capt. Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) arrives at Port Royal in the Caribbean without a ship or crew. His timing is inopportune, however, because later that evening the town is besieged by a pirate ship. The pirates kidnap the governor's daughter, Elizabeth (Keira Knightley), who's in possession of a valuable coin that is linked to a curse that has transformed the pirates into the undead. A gallant blacksmith (Orlando Bloom) in love with Elizabeth allies with Sparrow in pursuit of the pirates.

It was also significant in being the first film released under the Walt Disney Pictures banner to be rated PG-13 by the MPAA.

The film spun off four sequels, with the latest sequel released in 2017. The first two were back-to-back sequels in 2006 and 2007, Dead Man's Chest and At World's End, respectively. The third sequel, On Stranger Tides, was released in 2011. The fourth sequel, Dead Men Tell No Tales, was slated to begin production in October 2014 for a summer 2016 release, but was eventually delayed to May 2017. It was directed by Joachim Rønning and Espen Sandberg. While none of the sequels matched the critical acclaim of the first film, they were still box office successes nevertheless.

It is a classic movie, it has comedy, action, adventure and most importanly pirates.
