Great film, but...

Rating: 8/10 (6 November 2015)

Great movie overall. Johnny Depp gives a great performance as Whitey Bulger. The rest of the cast hits the nail on the head as well. Be forewarned that the music in this movie is so ridiculously loud you will have a hard time hearing the dialogue between the characters. This movie would have received a 10/10 except the music brought it down 1 stars. The other star loss was due to Joel Edgerton's terrible Boston accent. He really needs to work on it. It was not convincing in the least bit. Other than his accent, he played a great part. This movie will pass two hours by pretty easily. I don't think it's ever going to win any academy awards for best picture. Not with the type of editing it received. The music really annoyed the group of friends that I viewed this movie with.
