It seems like moviegoers have reason to be cautiously optimistic about the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean 5. According to those attending an early screening, it's "the best one since the first"
While the movie isn't set for release for another two months Disney held an exclusive screening for members of the press and theaters owners during the studio’s CinemaCon presentation last week, though reviews are still under embargo the reactions on Twitter gives this movie hope.
The franchise was already on the decline when the third was released and the fourth film, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, almost made it look like the golden age of piracy on the big screen was over. Making Johnny Depp the main character instead of having him as support was not a great move for Pirates 4, and it seems like Disney has learned from all of their mistakes with the last movie and steered the franchise out of strange tides into pleasant waters.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales releases in theaters on May 26th.
Bellow follows some Twitter reactions to the fifth Pirates of the Caribbean film:
Pirates 5 is definitely the best one since the first. Admittedly, that isn't saying much but it does occasionally capture that magic.

Fans of #PiratesoftheCaribbean will not be disappointed. Pirates 5 is a very fun, action packed adventure w subtle nods to the ride itself.

You might be surprised to hear me say this but I really dug the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. Action set pieces are a lot of fun. pic.twitter.com/mluWwqyU8r

Also the action scenes are really well staged and easy to follow. So much better than the last one. #PiratesoftheCaribbean

Also has, in Kaya Scodelario @kScodders, the strongest female character in the franchise. #CinemaCon2017

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales is a pleasant surprise. Continues the legacy, focuses on the characters and the world.
