POTC 5 undid Barbossa's perfect ending.
While On Stranger Tides is hardly remembered as a high point for the Pirates of the Caribbean series, the sequel did offer a perfect ending to one longstanding plot line. The Pirates of the Caribbean movies started strong, but soon cracks began to show in the franchise’s foundations. The original Pirates of the Caribbean movie, 2003’s The Curse of the Black Pearl, was a self-contained swashbuckler that followed Jack Sparrow, Will Turner, and Elizabeth Swann on a straightforward adventure.
Although 2003’s original movie balanced chills, thrills, and laughs perfectly, the Pirates of the Caribbean sequels went wrong as soon as they expanded on this plot. 2006’s Dead Man’s Chest was overstuffed and unable to find a consistent tone, while 2007’s At World’s End was far too downbeat and convoluted to match the playful atmosphere of the original movie.
✕ Remove Ads Since The Curse of the Black Pearl, Barbossa and Jack had been constantly fighting over who was the Black Pearl’s rightful captain. This feud led the pair to repeatedly make deals and double-cross each other, but the plot of On Stranger Tides finally solved the problem when Barbossa got a boat of his own after defeating Blackbeard.
The ending of the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie is a perfect place to wrap up Barbossa's franchise story.
