Johnny Depp returns to the big screen as the iconic, swashbuckling anti-hero Jack Sparrow in the all-new “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.” The rip-roaring adventure finds down-on-his-luck Captain Jack feeling the winds of ill-fortune blowing strongly his way when deadly ghost sailors, led by the terrifying Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem), escape from the Devil's Triangle bent on killing every pirate at sea—notably Jack. Jack's only hope of survival lies in the legendary Trident of Poseidon, but to find it he must forge an uneasy alliance with Carina Smyth (Kaya Scodelario), a brilliant and beautiful astronomer, and Henry (Brenton Thwaites), a headstrong young sailor in the Royal Navy. At the helm of the Dying Gull, his pitifully small and shabby ship, Captain Jack seeks not only to reverse his recent spate of ill fortune, but to save his very life from the most formidable and malicious foe he has ever faced.

“Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” also stars Kevin R. McNally as Joshamee Gibbs, Golshifteh Farahani as the sea-witch Shansa, Stephen Graham as Scrum, David Wenham as Scarfield and Geoffrey Rush as Captain Hector Barbossa.

Espen Sandberg & Joachim Rønning are directing “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” with Jerry Bruckheimer producing. The executive producers are Mike Stenson, Chad Oman, Joe Caracciolo, Jr. and Brigham Taylor. Jeff Nathanson wrote the screenplay. “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” drops anchor in U.S. theaters on May 26, 2017.

Did you know Jeff Goldblumn was the rapist in Death Wish?

I did know that. For some reason I have never much liked Jeff Goldblum. He has always struck me as annoying and condescending.

The only movie I ever liked him in was "Fly", and it's probably because he played to his strengths. Being annoying and condescending. :)

But he was great in that. I liked him a little bit in "Independence Day", but I disliked him intently in "Silverado." (a really good Western)

But yeah, a year or so I watched "Death Wish" with my kids, because I like old movies, and I recognized Jeff Goldblum immediately. And of course, I didn't like him. Of course I used to dislike Bruce Dern, but i've gotten to the point where I kind of like the old obnoxious bugger now.

He's still acting!

Maybe Jeff Goldblum will eventually grow on me. :)

You summed them all up nicely. The first one was also FUN.

It was just well made. Everything worked. The plot made sense, the jokes worked, the action worked, the characters were great. It just clicked.

Not so with everything which followed. The plots stunk, the jokes didn't work, the action scenes looked contrived and fake, they tried to do too much with special effects rather than just making a better movie.

They killed it with the second one, sucked all the fun out of it.

Yup.
