Nothing award winning but at least we get to see Johnny Depp without make up!

Rating: 6/10 (15 September 2013)

This is an o.k passable film. Johnny Depp gives us a wonderful performance, but the lighting is weak and so are the characters and dialogue. Freddie Highmore gives a sweet performances. This truly is a funny, and heartwarming film, but it doesn't do it with ease as one would hope. It kinda starts out of nowhere and it's plot is kinda confusing. This film Is way to lengthy, needed to be shorter. The characters aren't written as well as you'd hope, and the dialogue is horrid to listen too. This ends on a rather soft note but still doesn't reach expectations. This is o.k and barely passes as a fresh film. At least I finely get to see what Johnny Depp's face really looks like without all the make up. Not very magical but with excellent acting the film makes it over the border from completely disappointing. C
