This film is a kind of attraction like Disney attraction facility of the same name rather than pure film that audiences just sitting there to see. The tag line is simple enough that Captain Jack Sparrow seeking the trident of Poseidon to get rid of UK navy ghosts which led by Captain Salazar who perfectly performed by the remarkable actor Javier Bardem (he is well known by antagonist Anton Chigurh in No Country for Old Men). The most memorable sequence in the entire film is the last under sea sequence in which IMAX screen can fully express its large vertical actions in 4D. That is the most remarkable and wholistic cinematic experience during viewing, sensing of this film. It is very close to the next development phase of film. I believe film can be 4D attraction but the limitation still is its structure of traditional theaters. Cinema and Amusement Park are in more harsh competition in the 21st. century. In the future theaters are more like Amusement Park! At the present, 4D is limited within the traditional theaters structure...need transformation of theaters! Demonstration with film screening, night market with film screening, temple festival with film screening are still belong to the traditional 2D era.
