Review of Mortdecai (2015) by Barry G — 18 Apr 2015
WHY IS EWAN MCGREGOR IN THIS? *ahem,* sorry. Mortdecai is one of those movies that just shouldn't have been made. What we have is an inside joke with a bunch of A-listers making in jokes and pretending to be European.
Depp continues to just play Jack Sparrow, Paltrow plays... herself, and McGregor is completely wasted in it. Koepp does manage to make a very nice looking film and a couple of the minor jokes work, but Mortdecai just feels like a completely useless, unnecessary, inside joke.
