A lot better than the ratings given here

Rating: 6/10 (10 August 2019)

As a voracious reader of true crime this story naturally gravitated into my hands.
The book is brilliant so I was looking forward to this movie. Johnny Depp is always good but his make up makes him look unnaturally out of place with the other actors, even on the fourth viewing as I genuinely like this movie.
The best actor in this is Joel Edgerton, he gives an absolutely brilliant performance as an over confidant, professional idiot which Connolly was.
It's loyal to the book, it's paced well and all the actors are fantastic.
The bad reviews, I don't know what these people were expecting.
