Review of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017) by Bradley J — 25 Sep 2017
Dead Men Tell No Tales is a shockingly enjoyable late entry into this flagging franchise. Johnny Depp phones it in, but with a surprisingly winning performance from Kaya Scodelario (who was dull in The Maze Runner but is funny and lively here), and with a story that doesn't take itself too seriously, POC5 is just a frivolous good time with some stunning visuals.
It won't change the diminishing course of this series, but it is a pleasant enough surprise. Rating: 60.
