Depp really needs to stop doing his friend's movies!

Rating: 3/10 (22 May 2012)

Seriously, what was the point in making this? And furthermore, what was Johnny Depp thinking? This coupled with his cameo in Jack and Jill makes me think he's losing his mind. It's just a waste of his talent. Even the special effects in this movie were fake and hokey, the storyline was awful, and the very few laughs did not make up for the rest of the movie, which was just a total snooze-fest that I wished would just end. The only highlight was Alice Cooper's performance at the end and Johnny Depp referring to him as a female.
Tim Burton really needs to stop making dark Gothic movies starring Depp just for the sake of making them. It's not working anymore. This was extremely unimaginative and uninteresting and would only appeal to teenage Twilight fans, in particular the nonsensical werewolf scenario at the end which was extremely pointless. I rarely write movie reviews but just had to with this as I don't understand the intention of the film at all. Save yourself the money, it is as bad and boring as everyone is saying (unless you are 13 maybe) and go see The Dictator or even Piranha 3DD instead, which was far more entertaining!
