Review of Black Mass (2015) by Baehl — 24 Oct 2015
I was largely disappointed with the film. It felt like it could have been so much more than an excuse for the makeup department and Johnny Depp to show off their collective talent, which is considerable no doubt. However the movie fell flat when it came time for the audience to give a damn about anything that was going on on the screen. It seemed like each scene was just another excuse for Depp to look more menacing. By the end of it, it felt like I was watching a vampire story in Boston starring Depp.
I could never suspend my disbelief and the movie suffered for it.
