Beyond Redemption

Rating: 1/10 (6 February 2010)

Where to start? Check out the goofs to confirm how far Mann strayed from reality, particularly in the time-lines of the characters lives and deaths. This could be excused if we were presented with solid writing, acting, direction and some drama. But we get nothing. A complete waste of over two hours of my life. Johnny Depp's ability seems to be confined to Burtonesque fantasy tales. Here he is seriously miscast, lamely going through the motions. Script seemed to be a first draft with story meandering between random shoot-outs and bank robberies. I rarely review but I'm hoping that these few words spare at least one other fellow human being the ordeal.
