Pirates of the Caribbean Movies In Order

Johnny Depp has a history of making amazing movies, and Pirates of the Caribbean is no exception to that rule. Since 2003, this light hearted action adventure movie series has been cashing in on its worldwide box office success. The series now has five released movies, with the latest, Dead Men Tell No Tales, opening on May 26, 2017.

When people first encounter this series, they wonder if they should watch the Pirates of the Caribbean movies in order.  I would say after watching all of them, it’s not necessary to watch them in any sort of order.  Each movie is its own separate plot line, and they’re all independent from each other.  However, like many series, the first flick probably does a better job at introducing characters than the subsequent releases.  For this reason, I would recommend watching them in the order in which they were released, but it really isn’t that important.

Unlike most movie series, Pirates of the Caribbean began as a theme park ride. The Disneyland attraction opened in 1967, decades before Jack Sparrow arrived on screen. The movies became so popular that characters from them were later added to the ride.


As many movie fans know, critical response often does not measure success. A sixth movie is in development, and producer Jerry Bruckheimer says work is continuing on its screenplay. No release date has been announced.

The success in this movie comes in part from the fact that it’s enjoyable for all ages and genders.  There’s action, comedy, and it’s all mixed together with some adventure.  Johnny Depp does an excellent job at portraying his character, and he has led this franchise through its five released movies.  No matter what order you decide to watch this series in, you’re sure to enjoy yourself regardless.

    Just watched ‘on Stranger Tides’ In my opinion Sam Claflin and Penelope Cruz destroy the film. I also do not think that the storyline has the same depth as the previous 3 films.
    For me rather a disappointment.

What did you think of the series?
