The horror/psychological thriller film stars Brenton Thwaites, Alan Ritchson, Skylar Astin, Theo Rossi, Kyle Gallner, Billy Zane, Shaun Toub and was written and directed by Eric Bress.

Five battle-hardened American soldiers are assigned to hold a French Chateau near the end of World War II. Formerly occupied by the Nazi high command, this unexpected respite quickly descends into madness when they encounter a supernatural enemy far more terrifying than anything seen on the battlefield.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales

admin — Tue, 30 May 2017 20:45:59 +0000

How much do expectations play in the enjoyment of going to the cinema? With part five of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, the case for expectations effecting outcome is a strong one. With the downward spiral the films have suffered from since the fresh and funny first, one could be forgiven in thinking the worst. Certainly the film critics have sharpened their knifes.

In some ways, Captain Jack has his swagger back. It’s a silly return to the fun of the first film and doesn’t take itself too serious. Depp charts no new ground but his original idea of channeling Keith Richards and the cartoon skunk Pepe Le Pew still works well, so well in fact that his character has become ubiquitous. Pistol and Boo would be proud.

The cast this time features some fresh new faces, Australian actor Brenton Thwaites as son of Will, Henry Turner and British actor Kaya Scodelario as his love interest, Carina Smyth. There is also the welcome return of a couple of fan favourites. The story this time, while unchallenging, provides the back drop for some crazy happenings on the high seas. It pulls out all the stops in its computer generated imagery but the 3D effect darkens things just that bit too much.

This movie isn’t made for students of film, it’s made for the young and the easy to entertain. It follows the itinerary that most block busters follow, open big and try like hell to keep the energy up. It doesn’t really succeed but as far as popcorn films go, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales is a bit of frivolous fun.

In this action-adventure inspired by the classic mythology of Egypt, the survival of mankind hangs in the balance as an unexpected mortal hero Bek (Brenton Thwaites) undertakes a thrilling journey to save the world and rescue his true love. In order to succeed, he must enlist the help of the powerful god Horus (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) in an unlikely alliance against Set (Gerard Butler), the merciless god of darkness, who has usurped Egypt’s throne, plunging the once peaceful and prosperous empire into chaos and conflict.

As their breathtaking battle against Set and his henchmen takes them into the afterlife and across the heavens, both god and mortal must pass tests of courage and sacrifice if they hope to prevail in the epic final confrontation.
