Based on a true story, as told at the end. It has great potential, but it fails to follow up with the numerous sub-plots it just throws in to make up the two hours, and the main plot lacks real emotion. Sunday-night movie only.

The movie's pacing could have been better, and the ending is, in my opinion, anti-climatic. Decent performance by Johnny Depp. Cumberbatch's American accent is the real highlight of the movie.

While I can appreciate the strength of Depp's performance relative to the typical roles he plays, one above-average performance does not a movie make. If you liked The Town you'll probably love this movie, but I found myself thinking more about Depp's make-up than the rest of the movie after leaving the theater.

While factual movies are always interesting, this particular one failed to hold my attention despite a veritable who's who of acting talent Depp is great in his role, I confess the makeup is so good you can barely tell its him! If it has no other accolade, it probably does hold one for the most prolific use of the 'f' word!

"Thank God for Whitey Bulger."

Johnny Depp gives a brilliant performance as Jimmy "Whitey" Bulger, leader of the Irish-American Winter Hill Gang in the 1970's and 80's. The film follows his infamous rise to power, with the help from his childhood friend and now FBI Agent, More

Second time watching this and honestly outside a couple of scenes, I barely remembered anything. Thought the acting was fine, as was the direction but considering the cast that included Johnny Depp, Joel Edgerton, Benedict Cumberbatch, Kevin Bacon and others, thought what an epic crime-thriller coul More

Bulger's playing us, making a fool of the Bureau. We're in too deep, and he knows it! God help us all.

Black Mass is the story of Whitey Bulger (Johnny Depp), who was the brother of a state senator and the infamous violent leader of South Boston's Winter Hill Gang. It charts his criminal activit More
