With Johnny Depp it can't be bad, but..

Rating: Null/10 (4 December 2003)

Basically any film with Johnny Depp in it will be pretty good, due to the fact that he is an incredible actor, and so is Ian Holm who holds another big part. I did actually like this film very much - the period is interesting and well depicted and the story is gripping. The whole theory exposed here about the identity of Jack the ripper is fascinating and all. But I can't help asking myself what on earth Heather Graham was doing in this film? She didn't sound very Irish to me, and she just isn't an actress of the right caliber. She completely disappeared behind Johnny Depp.
Well, except for that, I think the film deserves 8,5/10
