both terms that can be applied suitably to this movie (if that's what I can call it). Scraping the bottom of the barrel, milking upon its previous success. The overuse of jokes we've heard on several previous occasions, the fact that the beloved Jack Sparrow is now becoming a character we look at in contempt because he's worn out, much like the franchise.

This time it's in the form of 'Dead Men Tell No Tales'. However, Disney as the opportunistic blighters they are, take their box office success with stride and look to creating the next underwhelming, money-making sequel. But the two sequels' success should not have been an excuse for a fourth and now a fifth film, with each film the reception lowers and the standards and eagerness for the next further lowers. Enjoyable? Hell no! I admit that 'Dead Man's Chest' and 'At World's End' weren't 'fantastic' movies, but they rounded off a rather enjoyable trilogy, especially following the ultimately brilliant first film. Perhaps it's the fact that a theme park ride can't sustain a story for an entire film franchise? Maybe it's the fact that I've seen this story before in four other films? Perhaps the lack of character development and me not giving a damn about any of the new characters? Or maybe it's just because it's an orgy of CGI madness? Who knows? Either way, this film is a complete over-the-top mess. how I left with even lower enjoyment is beyond me.

After the dreadful predecessor that was 'On Stranger Tides', I entered the cinema with rather poor expectations.
