Review of The Lone Ranger (1956) by Vincent W — 06 Mar 2014
2.5 hours is way too long. Johnny Depp carries this film so hard with brief appearances by Helena Bonham Carter which are also very good. The problem is that Armie Hammer was wrongly cast for this role. He and Depp do not have synergy.
Hans Zimmer returns with another brilliant performance.
The script is very bland and the plot is only average. The action clips didn't feel all that great. The cinematography is excellent. The costuming is very good.
I think that the plot is largely why this film fails.
SUMMARY: An ok film but only because Depp is a master.
