2015 is the year of rebirth, apparently. An dystopian franchise, a director's thought-dead career, and now Johnny Depp. I thought he had been stuck in Captain Jack Sparrow mode, but this performance proved that wrong. He was menacing in nearly every scene, and his performance reminded me why he's one of the best.
That being said, the film could've been better. It was a very typical crime-boss story, and nothing really stood out as innovative or spectacular, save for Depp's performance.
7/10
