action
Will Turner, Elizabeth Swann and Hector Barbossa want to free the pirate Captain Jack Sparrow, who was dragged into the underworld by a giant octopus in the previous film . To find him, they need a special map that will lead them to the realm of the dead. They hope to receive them in Singapore from the pirate Sao Feng, they also ask him for a ship and a crew to be able to start the journey. Sao Feng, however, is initially stubborn. However, Will, who secretly pursues the goal of freeing his father with the help of the Black Pearl , manages to negotiate the necessary things.
With the help of the map they find Jack in the underworld and escape with him back into the world of the living. Shortly afterwards, however, Sao Feng, who had agreed with Will to take over the Black Pearl in Singapore to free his father on board the Flying Dutchman , and Lord Cutler Beckett, the leader of the East India Trading Company ( British East India Company ), appear. on. Will, Sao Feng and Beckett each want to get possession of the Black Pearl , but none of them succeed. Nevertheless, when the Endeavor and the Black Pearl meet, Beckett and Jack exchange their interests and agree on short-term mutual support under the motto 'It's all about business': Jack and the crew of the Black Pearl can flee just like Sao Feng. However, this takes Elizabeth with him, in whom he suspects the sea goddess Calypso , who is bound to human form . They each sail in the direction of the shipwreck island, where a meeting of different pirate heads, the pirate lords, is to take place. Will is thereupon abandoned some time after the conversation between Jack and Beckett with the directional compass at sea in order to inform him about the way to the meeting point of the Pirate Brotherhood via Will, since Beckett through the possession of the heart of Davy Jones and his resulting control protect Jack's soul from him. Beckett himself can then have the entire fleet of the East India Trading Company head for the pirate island and Jack will be able to accuse Will of high treason.
That night Sao Feng was killed in an attack by the Flying Dutchman , Davy Jones' ship. Before his death, he named Elizabeth as captain and his successor as pirate lord. Shortly afterwards, the crew is arrested on the Flying Dutchman , where Elizabeth meets James Norrington, whom she knows from days gone by. Norrington frees Elizabeth and her crew and helps her escape onto the ship in tow. He is killed by Bootstrap Bill, Will's father, whose personality is gradually disappearing.
Meanwhile, on the Black Pearl , Jack and Barbossa learn from Tia Dalma that it is actually the job of Davy Jones and the Flying Dutchman to transfer the souls of those who die at sea to the afterlife. However, because Davy Jones neglected this task, he and his crew were punished by taking the form of marine animals with human characteristics and losing their memories. Shortly afterwards it turns out that Tia Dalma is actually the sea goddess Calypso, trapped in a human body.
The pirate lords, who come from all over the world and who include Barbossa, Jack Sparrow and now Elizabeth Swann, gather on Shipwreck Island. It is discussed whether the goddess Calypso should be freed from her human body to help the pirates in the fight against Davy Jones and Lord Beckett. Sparrow doubts that the goddess would be on good terms with the pirate lords, as it was this advice of the pirate lords that banished the goddess into a human body in order to have the seas to herself and no longer have to be under the supervision of Calypso. After some discussion, Elizabeth, who was elected Queen of the Pirates with Jack's help, decides that the pirates will go to war against Jones and Beckett.
The East India Trading Company has now found the shipwreck island with Will Turner or Jack's indirect help and is advancing with a large fleet under the leadership of Lord Beckett's flagship Endeavor . Before the fight starts, Beckett, Will, and Davy Jones meet Jack, Elizabeth, and Barbossa on a sandbar to negotiate. Jack Sparrow is exchanged for Will Turner after Beckett reveals that Jack is actually responsible for the Company's discovery of Shipwreck Island. But Barbossa still takes his 8 reales coin from Jack , which is necessary for the liberation of Calypso.
On board the Black Pearl, Barbossa frees Calypso from the figure of the Tia Dalma with a magical ritual, for which every pirate lord needs a certain item. Before she can transform, Will Turner reveals to her that it was Davy Jones who made her imprisonment possible in the first place. Since Calypso and Davy Jones once loved each other, she realizes the betrayal, and her anger creates a huge vortex in which the crews of the Flying Dutchman and the Black Pearl finally fight.
In the course of the battle, Jack loots the chest with the heart of Davy Jones and its key. Will and Elizabeth are married by Captain Barbossa during the battle. Eventually, Davy Jones stabbed Will Turner in the chest with a sword. To save Will, Jack stabbed Davy Jones' heart with his hand. This kills Davy Jones and Will becomes the new captain of the Flying Dutchman . After the dead Davy Jones fell overboard, the vortex disappears. Since the Flying Dutchman now has a new captain, the crew has regained its human appearance.
Meanwhile, the Endeavor picks up speed to attack the Black Pearl . However, the Endeavor is sunk by the Black Pearl and the Flying Dutchman , which has returned to the surface , with Beckett dying. The East India Trading Company's fleet then begins to retreat.
Will offers his father freedom, but he decides to stay on board the Flying Dutchman with his son. As captain of the Flying Dutchman, Will is now only allowed to spend one day on land every ten years. He spends this with Elizabeth. Before leaving, he gives Elizabeth the chest that now contains his heart.
Barbossa and the crew of the Black Pearl leave Jack in Tortuga in a small boat. Barbossa wants to find the legendary fountain of youth with a map . However, Jack had stolen this important part of the map beforehand, who in turn is now looking for the fountain of youth.
After the credits, it is shown how Elizabeth and her son are standing on a cliff ten years later and waiting for Will, who approaches the coast with the Flying Dutchman .

Reviews
"The grand finale of Disney's pirate saga 'Pirates of the Caribbean' keeps its fans out for far too long time and again and in the end only leaves a bitter aftertaste."
"The third part gets quite out of hand, spins even more sailor's thread and gets tangled in it instead of winding it up."
“Long, unnecessarily ramified, almost undead itself: What began in 2003 with a funny pirate comedy has become a sterile copy of its own in a double extension. It's a shame about the good Jack Sparrow. "
“Sometimes too verbose, the pirate spectacle is entertaining with opulent and original tricks. The multitude of characters and charming storylines do not round up into a dramaturgical unit. "
