Dead Men Tell No Tales is the fifth Pirates of the Caribbean Movie starring Johnny Depp. The movie starts out with 12-year old Henry Turner diving to the bottom of the sea to tell his dad—who is dead and cursed to be a ghost at the bottom of the ocean in a ship—that he can save him with the Trident of Poseidon, so he will search for it for as long as it takes.

Nine years later, Henry is a sailor on a ship that sails into the Devil's Triangle where everyone is killed by ghosts but him. He is spared to send a message to Jack Sparrow. The message is that the ghost Captain Salazar is seeking revenge on Jack.

Jack is up to his tricks when he is found inside a bank safe by the town. He and his friends try to rob the bank, but it doesn't end up as expected. Jack ends up needing to be rescued from execution. Henry joins Jack’s friends to rescue him in an elaborate rescue mission that is successful but not quite as you would expect. The story continues with a young girl accused of witchcraft, also rescued from execution, joining Henry and Jack on an adventure to stop Captain Salavar and find the Trident of Poseidon.

I usually don't expect much in the fifth in a series of movies, but found that “Dead Men Tell No Tells” was probably one of my favorite Pirates movies. I almost didn't go to see it but saw a preview at Disneyland and knew that it was going to be one I didn't want to miss. It is full of adventure and humor that only can be found in the adventures of Jack Sparrow. Johnny Depp brings the character to life every time.
