Everything Wrong With Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales 

the fact that we never got to see a battle of undead ships between Salazar's men and Will with the Flying Dutchman is the true travesty here.

You missed a giant sin. In the second movie tia dalma said that she gave him the compass and in the fifth movie Jacks old Captain gave him his compass.

Would've added a million sins for the fact that Jack Sparrow in this film was NOTHING like the witty, smart, funny and complex protagonist we fell in love with as our childhood hero.

I cannot believe that CinemaSins didn’t mention the part about Will ripping out his heart and the curse was the only thing keeping him alive!

Its funny how they're like "the Black Pearl is the fastest ship ever if we get it back we can outrun Salazar". Then they get on the ship and get caught by Salazar, the British, and half a dozen guys in a rowboat.

Jack originally got the compass from Calyspo. She says this in the second or third movie. Which takes place years before the last one. The last movie tried to change the story.

Salazar: Dead men tell no tales. ...later... Salazar: I tell you my origin story. Make sense.

There's one sin noone seems to be pointing out: The Black Pearl is supposed to be the fastest ship in the whole world. And yet, in this movie, Salazar caught up with it, a random British ship caught up with it, and heck, even a bunch of people on a rowboat managed to catch up with it! The characters' backstories wasn't the only thing they seemed to disregard in this movie ( including the compass', that is)

I'm convinced that Johnny Depp was actually drunk the whole movie.

I realize there's a joke about not caring about the previous movies, but the 2nd movie explicitly states that Jack got his compass from Tia Dalma (Calypso) and that Davy Jones turned fishy because he wasn't ferrying souls to the afterlife, but this movie says Jack got the compass from some random schmuck and fishiness simply comes with the job.

I think that the biggest problem with this movie is the continuity errors. The first three movies were pretty consistent, they followed the same "rules" in universe. I haven't seen the fourth movie in forever, but i know the fifth movie disregards a lot of the rules previously established. The reason that Davy Jones and his crew looked like fish people was because they weren't doing their job of ferrying souls. Once Will becomes captain, the crew no longer look like fish creatures. Will should not have barnacles growing on him, neither should the rest of the crew. Also, when the curse is lifted, Will should die, since his heart was cut out of him and put in a chest. In the second movie (i think) Tia Dalma mentions how she gave Jack the compass, but in this movie it's stated that the compass was given to him by a former captain. Looking back at all the PoTC movies, you can see how Disney has changed. The first three were great, the fourth was shaky but it worked, and the last felt very rushed and forced. Kinda sad

The last time he gave the compass to someone, it wasn't a *betrayal* of the compass. Trading the compass for a beer, on the other hand, was a betrayal.

My idea on how to fix the movie: Have Calypso be responsible for hiding Poseidon's trident so that she could dominate the seas. Syrena, the mermaid from the last movie, possibly with Phillip, would be searching it so that the mermaids could regain Poseidon's favour (which was actually planned originally). Will would be in this movie much more. The minute Salazar escapes, he is hunting for him with the Dutchman, because it's literally his job to deal with the dead on the sea. Also, the Dutchman and Will would have their look from the end of At World's End because Will was not neglecting his duty like Davy Jones. Jack could very well start off at rock bottom but it should really be told to the audience that he has fallen far. And his personal goal is to once again be the Jack Sparrow of the past. Carina can be replaced with Angelica from the last movie. She could have gotten off the island by contacting a trade ship and wishes to reclaim the Queen Anne's Revenge, which would lead her to Barbossa and bring those two into the bigger picture. She could also find Jack by using the Voodoo puppet she got at the end of Stranger Tides. Henry could stay the same but it would have been nice to have him be Will III. like originally intended. Essentially, they will all end up at the Trident and the battle with Salazar ends with Will and the Dutchman sending them to the afterlife. As soon as they reclaim the trident, Poseidon rewards Will by breaking the Dutchman's curse because after all, Poseidon at full power is much stronger than Calypso, ending Calypso's rule. Jack would sail off with the Pearl, Angelica would get back the Queen Anne's Revenge after Barbossa's death, Syrena and the mermaids are in Poseidon's favour again, and Will and his son return to Elizabeth, who makes her cameo appearance. The post-credit scene will see a final reunion of Jack, Will and Elizabeth to signify that the franchise came to a nice close.

Out of all the stuff that I hated in this movie, I'd have to say that Will Turner and the Flying Dutchman having sea growths on them was the most irritating. Will's been doing his job ferrying souls from this world to the afterlife, and it was established in the third movie that the reason why Davy Jones and the Dutchman looked like fish people was as a punishment for not doing their job. As well, when Will took over as the captain of the Dutchman, all the crew lost their fish people looks and actually began to look like real people again. Finally, Will shouldn't have been released from the Dutchman at the end of the movie because being on board it isn't a curse, it's a responsibility charged to him by Calypso. A curse is something like the Aztec gold in the first movie.

Big sin you missed: Posiedon's trident, and artifact that has control over the entire sea, can be split in half with a basic iron sword. I mean, even if it was rusty or decaying, it's still the trident of Poseidon.

"What did he use to tie it together? To stand it up?" Human hair. From his back.

now i have your voice in my head every time i see something wrong or stupid with a movie

Oh. So Barbossa died again. That didn't happen before.

The only sin you needed to acknowledge was “No Keira Knightly”

"safe sex" joke is funnier than the whole movie

*Why didn't you address the fact that Jack got his compass from that pirate instead of Tia Dalma?!?*

The best thing about this movie is how it's called "Salazar's Revenge" here where i live. So you have the scene where Salazar says "Dead men tell no tales!", then it cuts to "PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN: SALAZAR'S REVENGE" It was so bad, i love it Edit: I live in Singapore.

Actually The Flying dutchman collects those who die at sea Henry just had to drown himself in the open sea Will easily could've told him that in 1 day

the fact that they expected us to believe that the pirate king stays on land to wait for her cursed husband every 10 years and also willingly wears a corset is ridiculous

Another sin: jack is shown to have received the compass from a crew member after beating Captain Salazar, however in Dead Man’s Chest, Tia Dalma says “what happened to the compass I gave you”.

Geez! You guys missed the biggest sin of them all! How did Jack even get the compass in the first place? According to this film, it was a gift to him as a youth during the flashback scene. BUT in Dead Man's Chest it is clearly stated that Jack got the compass from Tia Dalma/Calypso! They could not even keep track of their own history.

Cinema Sins you forgot to mention that Will's heart was cut out by Bootstrap Bill and not by the curse so he should have died at the very mkment the trident was destroyed

Another sin: POTC gotten the same treatment as Star Wars. Ruined an amazing franchise with stupid and terribly written movies

You missed the biggest obvious plothole. When they steal the safe and find it empty, Jack sneakily puts a coin in his shirt. Then in the next scene he's going to the bar for rum and has no money, so gives away the compass. But he has that coin still. The whole movie shouldn't have happened.

Who else knew as soon as Salazar bit that apple Jeremy was gonna sin the fuck out of it? It's like the movie was screaming "JEREMY, HOW BOUT A SIN??!!".

And to think Johnny Depp’s Jack Sparrow was an Oscar nominated role and now it’s a Razzie nominated role

“I hate the Sparrow. Die Sparrow” Nice line

I love all the sarcastic remarks you make, because of you I pay closer attention to movies I watch, and even say "roll credits". Keep on being amazing. This comment is too sappy - *(DING)*

I can't believe you didn't sin the fact that the f*cking trident of posiden was so easily broken by a sword! A f*cking sword can this all-powerful artifact of a god!?!?! How the f*ck does that make sense!?!?!

I'd actually forgotten I'd seen this film it was so forgettable.

"The trident can break every curse of the sea" Me: I dont know immortality, and the ability to never drown seems more like a gift in my book

Wait, so how is Will alive with the Posideon destroyed? Sure, the curse is gone but it doesn't change the fact his heart is in a BOX

Could have sworn being the Dutchmen was a job not a curse and you would only turn into a fish monster if you stopped doing your job, now that the curse is "broken" who is going to ferry the dead?

Only saw the movie today, and the biggest sin I felt with it: Where's the Flying Dutchman throughout all this? These are dead men, men who died at sea. The Flying Dutchman has literally one job. Nothing stops Turner from going after these guys, there are *plenty* of scenes where he could have shown up and saved this mess of a film. He could have served as exposition, tied the whole thing together. He could have provided an actual counter to the overpowered Pac-man boat. He could even have given Barbossa a better ending. Barbossa was the best thing in this film and they had to ruin it by killing him off so predictably. It's like How to Train Dragon 2 all over again: you know who's going to die just going off the ham-fisted dialogues. Edit: just checked the comments, glad to see I'm not alone in this. Like, really not alone... dang, everybody's thinkin' this, aren't they?

Love how the "Roll Credits" portion actually comes before even the opening title

I guess we're lucky Mr. Turner's curse got conveniently broken while he was ONTOP of the water with the Flying Dutchman. Because if he was beneath it I think he would have had the same problem as the other undead crew who suddenly drowned when they re-incorporated.

'For some reason sauron dies again in this movie' I died ;D

I liked how they nailed the actor for Henry Turner. He is exactly how a son from Will and Elizabeth would looks like. Also the actor playing Jack Sparrow in the flashback. I really thought he was a CGI-de-aged Johnny Depp. Will Turner is no longer bound to the Flying Dutchman and Jack Sparrow is rid of his nemesis only to have his most feared one coming back. "I finally get back the Pearl" "It is time to pay your 100 years debt, Captain Jack Sparrow".

10:39 No, but he does look like a younger captain Jack Sparrow, which is the point of the scene. Not to look like a younger Johnny Depp.

The Curse of the Dead Stranger's Chest at Word's End!! I died!!

Wait, no sin for the guillotine? In an English colony? Something that wasn't invented until the 1780s?

All I feel is sadness rewatching this knowing just how much awful shit was going on in Johnny’s life at the time. He must’ve been so miserable but still felt some sense of duty to finish the movie the best he could

Movie makers: how bad should we make this movie? The director: yes

Actually, when Mythbusters tested the 'bullets in water' myth, they found that *modern* bullets almost universally shattered upon impact with the water, while older, more archaic musket balls (like the ones that would be fired in the movie) held together, and would have remained dangerous (though perhaps not lethal) at least a few feet under the surface.

"Welcome to your curse, here are a few things you need to know before you get started." LOL

“Did he go to the Weinstein school of catching things?” Killed me

2:19 Henry *could* not tell Jack and be fine. But. Salazar said please, I mean c'mon.

That "Welcome to your curse" sentence is amazing :D

I love how the trident isn't a trident

Okay . I'm watching this in 2020 . Although you released this video two years ago . You comment about the early 2020s is spot on .2:44 The hell ?

Hey wait a minute. Shouldn’t Will be officially dead now? He’s not cursed anymore but he had his heart cutout. So he’s living without a heart?

I enjoyed the POTC movies (first being my favorite), but Dead Men Tell No Tells was the worse. I think they spent more time and focus on the CGI to win audiences over then the plot. I hated the two new young characters, Jack Sparrow was dull, the undead villians have been done twice before, and the holes and conflicts in the story couldn't be overlooked to accept the storyline. They only thing that kept my attention was Geoffrey Rush/Barbossa, but even his character was tampered so much that he wasn't the same. Instead of the lame new characters being the focus, they should've stuck with Sparrow and Barbossa teaming up (along with their humorous banter) against Salazar. The fans enjoyed Barbossa and Sparrow's "frienemies" relationship and the writers could've taken it to the next level.

Gore Verbinski gave us 3 epic films, incredible slew of lovable characters and some of the most memorable sequences and dialogues in the history of cinema. And let's not forget what an amazing soundtrack Hans Zimmer churned up for this series. Then Verbinski decided he has done a good job, and let's leave it at that, so that people can come back to this trilogy over and over again, and he left all happy and jolly... Meanwhile at Disney Headquarters: Nope, that's not how it ends...

Here's a greater sin for you. HOW exactly did Will's son know where the Dutchman would be BEFORE he jumped into the ocean in the first place? I thought the curse stipulated that they guide souls into the land of the dead for 10 years and THEN they could come home. How did he know his father would recognize him and bring the ship to the surface? And why WOULD it be such a problem if the Dutchman's crew discovered this child on the ship? Is Will Turner NOT the Dutchman's Captain? Wouldn't a single order from him cause the crew to stand down? Is his father not also part of the crew as well?

England: fighting pirates and Jack sparrow Meanwhile in new York: ANGELICAAAAAA ELIZAAAAA AND PEGGY

The only reason I was excited for this movie was because I was sure they'd get the Black Pearl back somehow... Except... They did it the absolute lamest way imaginable. I feel like choking the screenwriter and the director whenever I think about that scene. I really liked that ship.

Will and Elizabeth were the best thing in this movie and they only appeared for a few minutes. Jack was not even Jack Sparrow, Carina was more annoying than anything, Henry was cute but nothing special and I really disliked how they misstreated Barbosda because he was so badass before- how dare they mess with my favorite character!

7:18 actually, if you payed close attention to when Jack gave away his compass in that bar, you could see a rat in a pile on which the bartender put the compass, the same rat that the witch had in her place and which she threw in the cauldron. That is how she got that compass

One of the biggest problems I have with this whole thing is the "she's a witch" plot when Britain stopped prosecuting witchcraft in the 1730s and this movie supposedly takes place in 1751.

Anyone else feel like Johnny Depp wasn't great in this? He just seemed tired to me and wasn't giving Jack the same energy as used to. But I suppose that could be due to doing 5 of these movies and that Depp is starting to age.

I am mostly offended by the fact, that in one cosmos both Calypso and Poseidon can be gods of the sea....this seems pretty stupid...

I just watched the entire 5 movie franchise again, and it's honestly heartbreaking how they ruined this universe. The first three movies were actually good, the 4th one is up for debate, but this one was just a straight blunder. Depp has completely lost touch of his Jack Sparrow character and overacts the entire movie, like he's a drunk version of his own persona. Geoffrey Rush doesn't get to play his funny, offensive, pirate-y Barbossa anymore, instead he's now an emotional shipwreck. The two new "love story" characters are even worse than the ones in On Stranger Tides, with an overforced relation, and overforced stupid jokes that don't work at all. Salazar is just another dead-undead villain who no one sees anything original in. The pirates of Jacks crew have lost their touch as well, as they went from fearless, simple minded yet enjoyable pirates to "oh look at me im dumb" characters that overforce childish jokes. Honestly, the only good thing about this movie is Gibbs, as his character stayed mostly the same and I enjoyed watching him, as he reminded me of a better time. It's sad how this franchise has come to a close. I hope the 6th one, which is in the making, gets cancelled. I can't take another deeper dive into the abyss of failed movies.

"What are you?" *"I'm Batman.".*

Elizabeth had Jacks compass in the third movie yet that didn't strike Salazar's curse? We're expected to believe that Elizabeth just chilled in a big dress and island for 10 years? Why the hell was Will cursed even though Elizabeth remained loyal? And where the heck was his dad, he should have been on the boat!

"Weinstein School of Catching Things" Oh my God :D 👏

The very last scene of 5 was pretty good out of context. Hearing Will and Elizabeth's theme after all that time felt very nostalgic.

I don’t know if you forgot, but in Pirates of the Caribbean 2, Tia Dalma points out that she gave Jack the compass, whilst here, they state that it was the captain of the ship who gave it to Jack

Does anyone else realize that in the flashback jack gets the compass from the old captain, but then in pirates two tia dalma says to him "the compass you bartered from me, it cannot lead you to this?"? whoever wrote this movie did a very poor job. There are so many instances where it contradicts with the past movies and there are so many things that should have been written out. This movie was terrible.

In the second movie Tia Dalma said that she gave Jack the compass, soooooooo

Johnny Depp in an interview for Dead Man's Chest spoke about how much time and effort went into collecting his various ornaments, including that reindeer shin bone hanging from his hair, and spoke about how he imagines the adventures Jack had that led to its acquisition. And Tia Dalma gave him the compass in the second movie. Both of those have been retconned to a single point in his life for outsmarting one guy! It's like the Han Solo origins movie all over again

sooooo sharks don't even have skeletons, no bones. skeleton sharks couldn't happen

Hey you forgot the biggest sin of all they killed Hector Barbossa again seriously it was worth 10 sins.

Here's a sin: At the end of the third movie Will's jeart was cut out. When the curse was broken, why didn't Will just instantly die because of not having his full cardiovascular system within his body? Or are we to believe that with the curse's last magic it just sort of yada yada'd its way back to Will like the third chapter boss of Paper Mario?

“This is either the late 1700s or early 2020s” Me:👁👄👁

*JaCc SpaRO’.... (smokers laugh) JaK-de sPArrOU* Everybody that saw the movie remembers this scene.

The biggest sin for me was that Will was alive only because of that curse. He got killed so they used him to kill Jones so he got cursed and he was kept alive. Wouldnt canceling the curse also mean that he would just drop dead?

....Sir Paul McCartney play as jack uncle I hope you realize that right ? ...

2:42 Man, hearing that in late 2020 is sure something.

Do you remember the first movie? Great story, witty characters, funny jokes, great set pieces, great action and great acting? All deduced from a freaking Disney Ride. A total surprise. Yeah, that was awesome. For f***s sake, where did this lead to...

"Welcome to your curse, Here are a few things you need to know before you get started." Lmfao.

Also did anyone else notice that Jack got the compass from the captain in this movie, yet the first time we see Tia Dalma she says she gave it to him?

“What are these tally marks for” I don’t know,maybe days left until the next time will can come onto land

I have a large issue with this movie. If all curses have been lifted then shouldn't Will be dead, in the third film his heart was cut out and with the curse no longer there he has no heart for real so therefore he should have died immediately after the trident was broken

This episode of Sins is written really well. Incredibly witty

You know you've watched to many of these when you can guess what he's going to use to overvoice the clips on the end plates =D

Everything wrong with POTC Dead Men Tell No Tales: Everything.

What went wrong the this franchise was greed and other things. In the first film Will and Elizabeth were the main protagonist and Jack Sparrow was just the helping character and a clever pirate. Everything was played out fine with even Barbosa, the antagonist, who only wanted to be human again. They made the Royal Navy as heroes and everything was fine. Then Two and three came out and Jack became the main protagonist and a parody. What possibly made it still good was Will and Elizabeth, but everything was fine. Then Four came which ruined everything. And this movie. The people who produce this don't even care about it anymore. As long as they get tons of money. Now Johnny Depp is done playing as Jack Sparrow and they are finally noticing Will and Elizabeth were the main characters. The problem is simple: They don't care about this film anymore and just only making enough money is because were hoping it'll be good as the first one.

18:02 why the hell is Elizabeth walking up in fine clothing of any sort? At the end of the third movie she was the pirate king, and nothing shown in the after-credits scene suggested she waa giving that up, or that she was still interested in frilly dresses. Hell, even if she somehow retired or gave her throne up, she's still on the same island, yet here she comes looking like the first movie all over again. That pisses me off so much, I'm adding five more sins to Jeremy's total

Im not obsessed with cinemasins. *said after watching them literally all day

I like how they spend the first half of the movie saying if u have the trident u can rule the seas, but all the trident does is break curses when itself it broken

No mention that TWENTY YEARS pass between the 3rd movie and the 5th and Jack and everyone else looks the same age but Will's son.

"playing with your hershel too much can make you go blind." BEST double entrede.

9:05 In Carina's next line she says he's holding her "stern," which is the back part of a ship. He had to grab her butt to stop her from falling, which actually makes perfect sense.

The worst thing about this movie is how it completely 180'd the premise of the Dutchman from the original trilogy. Calypso herself gave Davy Jones his charge to ferry the dead, and when he went off-mission, that's when the curse kicked in and the ship and crew started to deform. Are we supposed to believe that Will Turner, who was established as an honourable man, would have just abandoned his mission? He knew what happened to Davy Jones and how it happened. It's not credible to try and tell the fans that he would have done the exact same thing, especially knowing that the woman HE loved would A) always be waiting and B) even if she couldn't wait she'd just jump on a ship and go see him. Makes me wonder if she's still the Pirate King by this point or if she gave it up.

Sparrow seems drunk throughout and he can't even make his own escape like he always does, outsmarting people with his talks and tricks. Sparrow gave up his compass to Will before he threw him overboard to Beckett/Jones and to Gibbs to find the Pearl. How come things didnt start shaking then or Salazar escape? Only now when he give it up for a drink? After fighting Davy Jones and Blackbeard, I find it hard to believe that the fearless Barbossa seems to be afraid of Salazar? What. Barbossa thinks finding the trident is impossible but he was the one that lead them into Davy Jones Locker saying "you need to be lost to find the place that cannot be found". Irony. Salazar wrecking havoc across the sea and what is the Flying Dutchman been up to? Also why is Will looking a bit like Jones, didn't he do his job? And why is he afraid of others finding out his son is on board. He's the fucking captain! Gibbs and Sparrow was talking about some rituals in the previous film to resize the Pearl but now all it takes is a Blackbeard sword? And why doesn't Barbossa use the sword against Salazar? There's a lot of things that doesn't add up. I try to like this one I really do but I cant. This the one and only worse film of the series.
