Pirate captain. Demon barber. Mad Hatter. It would be hard to exaggerate the number of hats worn by Johnny Depp–literal and otherwise–over the course of the Oscar winner’s career as Hollywood’s most beloved chameleon. Eighteen years after Donnie Brasco, it’s yet another crime drama that has rediscovered Depp’s acting chops as the chilling face of James “Whitey” Bulger, once America’s most notorious gangster and the all-too-real subject of director Scott Cooper’s unsettling and surprisingly soulless Black Mass. The edgy, longwinded retelling of the FBI’s most baffling case, there is no short way to describe Black Mass, so as the film says, “Let’s start.”
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Rebel Moon Part 2 Review: This movie doesn't feel anything new or worth remembering, which is a shame.
I recall Depp stating that this was his favorite movie to make. I don't doubt it given his performance here. A shame everyone else is so underused. I'm not one for over-indulgent runtimes, but Black Mass definitely could've benefited from the extra hour they cut.
Shame its getting such mediocre reviews, thought this was going to be a huge oscar movie.
