Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales

It is hard to tell if the Pirates franchise will ever truly be over until Johnny Depp decides he does not want to do any more of them. They make Disney a ton of money, so as long as he is willing to resurrect the character of Jack Sparrow, there is always a good chance another movie will come along at some point. This one, however, if it is the final movie in the series, does a good job telling its own story while having callbacks to and essentially finishing the Will and Elizabeth story (both Orlando Bloom and Kiera Knightly have cameos in the film). The main focus of the story is the search for Poseidon's trident, which allows whoever wields it power over the seas. Javier Bardem is the new "big bad" of the franchise, Captain Espinoza, who has a history with Jack Sparrow. Geoffrey Rush also reprises his role as Barbosa, and many of the original supporting characters appear as well (e.g., Kevin McNally as Gibbs). The other new characters include the son of Will and Elizabeth, Henry Turner, (played by Brenton Thwaites) and Carina Smyth (played by Kaya Scodelario) who is an astronomer accused of being a witch, who is trying to find the trident to follow her father's map left for her. The younger actor's roles were clearly meant to mirror, but not outright copy, the roles of Bloom and Knightly in the first movie. For those who get the 4K blu-ray, the movie looks and sounds great, as you would expect. There are awesome visuals that are a mix of practical and CGI, and they really pop in the UHD format. The UHD disc has just the movie, and the regular Blu-ray disc has the extras. This includes over an hour of making-of and behind-the-scenes material, a gag reel, deleted scenes, and a couple of previews. A pretty good amount, especially with less and less bonus material being put out with the physical discs these days. Overall, I think the movie is good, even if it is derivative (at times) of parts of the other movies. Depp can easily step back into what has become an iconic character, without missing a beat. It would have been nice to incorporate Orlando Bloom into the movie more, as there was certainly a pretty easy way to do so, but from what I remember reading back when it was announced that the movie would be made, he was not really interested in more than a cameo role. While I do not think that the movie is as good as The Curse of The Black Pearl, I do think that it was on par with, or better than, the other sequels. I do think with a running time of just over two hours, it did not feel like the movie was dragging on too long. I definitely think it is worth checking out.

It's a Pirates movie with Johnny Depp, of course its good,

Item came nicely packaged. Great movie.

Very entertaining movie, great family watch and if you care at all about how these movies are made the bonus content is well worth having. I wouldn't have known that Paul McCartney was playing Jack Sparrow's uncle if I hadn't got the bonus material because I genuinely didn't recognize him.

Would strongly recommend this. Great quality and value. Only thing is it took a while to figure out initially. This is my assessment.

This is the 5th film in the Pirates of the Caribbean movie franchise and it’s just as great and entertaining and fun as the previous 4. Rarely do sequels measure up, but these Pirates films are all top notch. Javier Bardem was creepy, dark and amazing as the bad guy ghost. Johnny Depp and Geoffrey Rush were phenomenal as always. Watched this again after the Johnny Depp trial as it was interesting to watch it post trial incoming that Depp was suffering personally at that time in that horrible relationship with that abuser Amber Heard. Watching this film I never would’ve guessed or noticed he was suffering. He’s such a professional and gifted actor that he can turn that off to get to work. Disney needs to make one more pirates film, a 6th one, with all of the original cast members from Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush, Kiera Knightley and Orlando Bloom. And even bring back some of the other characters throughout the franchise to wrap up the franchise in one Big Bang where all end up together in the end. And they can bring back Geoffrey Rush even though his character Barbossa died….again. They keep bringing him back to life over and over anyway, they can do it once more.

I like it about as much as all the others in the series. The HD transfer is, of course, excellent and has a lot of extras if you're into that sort of thing. Of course, it comes with the ever-worthless DVD and digital versions, but maybe someone will get something out of them.

As Expected

Bella Steelbook, anche se versione tedesca contiene audio italiano. Presa usata a ottimo prezzo, arrivata in condizioni buone (non ottime). Il film invece è molto bello e divertente, a livello della trilogia, meglio del quarto capitolo (che reputo il meno bello). Ora si parla di un possibile nuovo capitolo/reboot senza Jack Sparrow di Johnny Deep, ma in realtà è lui che dà alla serie tutto il divertimento e il carisma che l'ha resa famosa..

Ya cuento con la coleccion de piratas del caribe en bluray pero a ese precio y siendo 4k no podia dejar de pasar la oportunidad. la imagen y el audio son geniales, la unica queja que tengo es que la copia digital se vencio un dia antes de que llegara mi paquete asi que no la pude descargar por mas que hice el intento. si eres un fan de la saga de piratas del caribe te la recomiendo.

Perfect movie own every single one is unfortunate that didn’t continue with more

It was exactly what I ordered the quality was excellent delivery was on time 5⭐️

(Achtung: kleine Spoiler) Ich war selbst kritisch, aber nach dem Ansehen kann ich die negativen Stimmen nicht nachvollziehen, dieser Teil war nach dem etwas abgedrifteten Teil 4 wieder sehr nah an den ersten Teilen bzw. eben an dem besten/ersten Teil, mit viel, viel abgedrehtem Humor, hochwertiger Slapstick-Action (die Guillotine-Szene ist zum Brüllen) und gewohnt köstlichen Captain Jack-Sprüchen ("Ihr Männer seid doch alle gleich"!). Dass der Bösewicht mal wieder ein Untoter ist, tut da doch nix zur Sache, im Gegenteil, und wenn das das Kriterium wäre, dürfte man an keinem Zombiefilm mehr Spaß haben (immer dasselbe...). Kaya S. als wissenschaftsbegeisterte Frau, die ihrer Zeit voraus ist, macht dabei ebenso Spaß wie Brenton Thwaites, der seinen weitgehend abwesenden (Film-)Vater O. Bloom gut vertritt. Die Geschichte ist wieder stimmig, spannend und passend, und insgesamt bringt dieser Teil mit seinem versöhnlichen Ende (mal abgesehen von der Szene nach Abspann ;-) ) die Reihe rund und zufriedenstellend zu einem Abschluss - besser gehts nicht, top, 1 plus!!
