Let me start by saying that I really loved the previous three 'Pirates' films. They were a great mix of treasure-seaking adventure and humor, action and romance. They were the Indiana Jones of this generation.

While this fourth 'Pirates' movie has all the ingredients of the previous ones (with the addition of Blackbeard and man-eating mermaids), and even looks and sounds just as great, it seems like the magic is gone. For some reason I couldn't get involved in the story or the characters (old or new). Both the story and the acting seemed contrived (even more than before), meaningless and empty. Instead of the two hours of high-quality entertainment I expected, I got mediocre. Not bad, but I've come to expect more of it.

Unfortunately, this movie is easily forgettable. Not up to par with the previous installments. Let's hope they get their groove back in the next one.

@draackje that's how I felt when I first watched this film, revisiting it years later changed that and gave appreciation for the new characters ,storyline and of course the Mermaids

A disappointment to the franchise in my eyes. I still want to see the new one, but the first 3 are way above this one. Think the lack of Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley effects it majorly.

I for one still enjoyed it. Jack holds his own as expected.

Still a B+ movie to me.

Seen it in theaters...

Loved it... just like previous 3 installments...
Same good action, romance and humor is also back in this one...

Maybe at some points in the movie it gets a little slow,
but overall a very entertaining one!

Recommended, for sure if you loved the previous ones ;)

Just as great as the others, I don't even miss the original cast.

This movie should have never happened. There's none of that feel from the previous movies left. Just like Draackje wrote I believe the magic left with the director. I had very low expectations and somehow I was still disappointed. And this is from a guy who loved the first three. Such fond memories all crushed since they just had to make a fourth movie.

This isn't a *good* PotC movie, but it's also not a terrible one either. But at least it's not Dead Men Tell No Tales or nearly three hours too long like At World's End.

The "I grew up with the trilogy" kids will keep talking about how amazing Dead Man's Chest and At World's End are *because* they grew up with them, but they'll eventually realize that nostalgia goggles don't make movies they love any better than **this.**
