Great dark story

Rating: 8/10 (17 September 2015)

Black mass by no means is an action packed, shoot em up movie from start to finish but has a great dark story about James "Whitey" Bulgar and his vicious winter hill gang. It's closer to Goodfellas than anything which is obviously a good thing since Goodfellas is one of the best gangster movies of all time. The main attraction, Johnny Depp, is at his best with an unrecognizable performance. This movie has everybody in it from Kevin Bacon to Benidict Cumberbatch. With so many excellent performances it ties the movie together in a perfect way. Several candidates for best supporting actor in this movie. It's a must see for anyone looking for an intense grisly story.
