PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES
We all love Johnny Depp’s portrayal of Jack Sparrow, which he actually modelled on Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards. Queue swigging rum from a bottle and acting disgracefully in too much kohl eyeliner!
Luckily for us this month we will be treated to another Pirates Of The Caribbean outing this May with a great ensemble cast. The legendary Geoffrey Rush is back on board as Barbossa, Orlando Bloom resurfaces as cute, do-gooder Will Turner but this time a terrifying new adversary called Captain Salazar, played by the menacing Javier Bardem, is thrown in the mix.
Thrust into an all-new adventure, a down-on-his-luck Captain Jack Sparrow finds the winds of ill-fortune blowing even more strongly when deadly ghost pirates led by his old nemesis, the terrifying Captain Armado Salazar, escape from the Devil’s Triangle, determined to kill every pirate at sea…including him. Captain Jack’s only hope of survival lies in seeking out the legendary Trident of Poseidon, a powerful artifact that bestows upon its possessor total control over the seas.
Some caution is warned for parents with younger children as it has been given a PG13 rating for scenes with ‘adventure violence’. But all in all a swashbuckling return to the silver screen for this hit making franchise that fans of the original trilogy will adore.
