Less than anticipated

Rating: 6/10 (7 March 2016)

Expected more, as it was a bio-pic of the criminal lord Whitey Bulger, and more over Johnny Depp was doing it, coming to the movie, it was straight-forward dive into the kingpin's life, when it comes to the direction scott Cooper does a decent job in handling only a piece, of unveiling friendship b/w bulger and his alliance John Connolly. Depp was controlled, measured and sweeping against all odds. But the main sad thing was,it was not more than an alliance between two southies in boston, it delivers a vile piece of criminal story with gloomy performances from the solid-rock actors. Rather than a film, it was better to watch a documentary on Bulger to get more close to the true events.
