.Captain Jack’s adventures while searching for clues about Blackbeard’s lost treasure.

What’s in previous seasons?
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003), Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest (2006), Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End (2007) and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011).
Reviews from critics are mixed. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 45% and another reviews aggregator, Metacritic gave Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales a 44 out of 100.
That is not surprising considering how the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise has been diminishing each movie that followed since Pirates of The Caribbean: Curse Of The Black Pearl (2003). I was disappointed by Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End (2007) and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011), as well.
I’m not a big fan of the Pirates Of The Caribbean franchise, but Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales was marginally better than Pirates Of The Caribbean: Curse Of The Black Pearl in my opinion.
