Where you lose interest, lose the plot and can't be bothered to look back and figure out what's happening. Only watched it to complete the series - then learn there is a 5th - curses!
Edit: And yet it grossed a Billion - what am I missing?
I have always depended on the kindness of Strangers - and the bastards let me down!

The whole franchise is rife with the shabbiest, "bro culture" dialogue. Ridiculous and preposterous.
Deliberately anachronistic and –by very intention on the part of the writers and producers –historically inauthentic.
I refuse to waste my time on it.
The best pirate movie by far –in my opinion anyway –is "
The Buccaneer
" by Cecil B. DeMille. Paramount Pictures, 1938.
