What A Film

Rating: 8/10 (1 June 2009)

This film is wonderful. It's so powerful dark and brilliant. Johnny Depp is absolutely magical and enthralling as Inspector Abelaine. The mood of the film is so excellent and contributes greatly to the content of the film. Some will say that too much poetic license was used, but analyzing this movie is boring and stupid. The casting is superb, the sets wonderfully authentic and the costumes a colourful array representing the 19th century. Heather Graham gives one of her only good and solid performances as Mary Kelly. It is a simply masterfully executed film with twist and turns, and the thrilling execution of a well trained butcher.
