Review of Black Mass (2015) by Barry P — 18 Nov 2015
Black Mass (2015) Johnny Depp performs wonderfully in this "based on true events" film. Now I'm not a huge fan of films on content such as this but the story flowed very nicely and kept my attention very well. In the beginning I didn't even realize that it was Mr. Depp at all, great makeup work.
This film had a very strong documentary based feel to it though still the vibe of living in the shoes of each character as the story progressed. The acting from all actors and actresses within the movie were totally on point and presented their characters very well. This wasn't a film in which I'd thought it'd be as the given film description and trailer just didn't catch my interest at all.
If you're a fan of the mobster movies with some sort of "based on real events" hook to it, this one is just right for you.
