Johnny Depp is in a class by himself

Rating: 10/10 (4 February 2006)

I saw all of the candidates for the Oscar, and still feel that Johnny Depp and "Finding Neverland" should have won in the Best Actor and Best Film categories. Depp is probably the most talented and versatile actor in the world today, and the movie was terrific -- a wonderful addition to his brilliant portfolio. He is truly in a class by himself.
Also, anyone commenting on this film cannot ignore excellent performances by Kate Winslet, Freddie Highmore, Dustin Hoffman, Radha Mitchell, Julie Christie and others in the ensemble cast -- who have brought magic back to the silver screen where it has been lacking far too long. This film is apt to be considered a classic in the years to come.
