(Don't bother!) - review by Ian
This was not really Ian's kind of movie but he enjoyed some of the music, I liked it probably more because of the message behind the story .

This was an interesting film probably not for a mans man that's for sure , but different non the less after all that's what Johnny does best!
A sad, love story dramatic at times and Johnny D 's character another similiar to his character in Chocolat, both drifters.

This movie was not quite as funny as one would have expected with funny man Robin Williams in it, although it had its moments! Cindy
Diane Keaton was in her element playing the mothering role once again as we have seen her may times before, she was good as the overbearing mother.Cindy

I enjoyed Cry Baby it was different typical JD movie, I thought it was entertaining Ian managed to stick with it. John Waters made a fun trip back in time and Johnny Depp made it worth watching!

I first saw this series when it first came out, very charming oh if only life were like it is for Ma and Pop Larkin and their brood.
I had never forgotten the series and bought the disc set it is a lovely escape to somewhere that life is perfick as Pop would say.

This is a movie which the basis is to live in that perfect world where we would all like to be. Performances were believable with three great actors, Johnny was great as Don Juan the attire defintely suited him as did the performance, unique as always.

Hogfather was amusing very different to the classic tales of christmas, David Jason gave a gret performance as he has done so in many of his other roles.
We have seen Sweeney Todd on the big screen it was fantastic, I would recommend it to any Johnny Depp fan and Helena Bonham Carter was outsatnding as mrs Lovett.
The setting was brilliant Tim Burton outdid himself with this one.
A tale of misjustice and revenge with a sad outcome.
Both Johnny and Helena sang throughout the film, there was alot of singing in it but it showed what talented actor(s) these people are as they had to learn to sing for the roles. Some great cast well done!!
We saw the whole series and a two part christmas special it is so funny , easy watching it's a real rib tickler at times, and a great way to escape the world!! I would recommend it to anyone with a sense of humor or if you just need a good laugh.

Very interesting look into Hunter's life and how he lived life to the hilt, the interviews were good was surprised to see captain jack sparrow there too, oh that was johnny depp!!
(Excellent) - review by Ian
We enjoyed the movie, it was as good as the tv show, about life in the cornish village of portwenn, Martin Clunes is just so amusing as the ever sterile doc !!
(Excellent) - review by Ian
A good animated film typical Tim Burton and Johnny Depp even as an animated character Johnny is able to bring Victor to life.

We enjoyed the final pirates, some great scenes Johnny as the lovable pirate Jack Sparrow I thought was charming sure I'm not alone there!!
(Not to be missed!) - review by Ian
Well I must say I enjoyed watching Edward Scissorhands even twenty years after watching it originally. Johnny once again did this character justice. Great movie from the Burton/Depp team.
(Excellent) - review by Ian
Great movie, well told story.
(Excellent) - review by Ian
Some great actors held this movie together, but only just.
Thought the deleted ending was more like Johnny D than the one they kept.
Wouldn't have bothered if it wasn't for the cast!!
I reall enjoyed this movie Anthony Hopkins performance was brilliant as usual.
(Excellent) - review by Ian
This movie was different I loved Charlize Theron and Johnny D they worked well together very believable twosome, although I didn't think there was much to the story itself.
Really enjoyed watching taxi driver second time around.
(Excellent) - review by Ian
Benny and Joon was funny, sad,happy although there were serious moments I loved whan Sam made the bread rolls dance, and the toasted sandwich scene was good too, it was a lovely story about two people who with each other can manage to live in their world which is to them a perfect one.

We enjoyed Finding Neverland, the place that exists in our imagination, kate and Johnny worked so well together and the boys were just great, what a wonderful story and a wonderful man he was.
(Excellent) - review by Ian
Ian didn't go much on Ed Wood I thought it was okay and Johnny's cast as Ed did a great job for the era and showed how much this man loved making movies even if they were not all good, but it depends on taste.
This movie was really good great cast,Cindy didn't mind it either although not a chich flick.

From Hell was good as it depicted what it was like in that time how hard it was especially if you were a woman who was not born to riches Johnny fits so well into playing those characters from the past.

Wow great house on the lake that's probably all it had going for it we found it confusing to begin with not at all up to Sandra Bullocks usual standard.
Ian didn't mind this neither did I , it just shows what a versatile actor Johnny Depp is even though he has no charm in this one!
I thought this movie was great very touching, and it made you think about what is important, it was easy to see Leonardo was a promising young actor even then he was so convincing as Arnie.
(Worth watching) - review by Ian
Fear and Loathing was different I think Johnny still did it justice and admired Hunter S Thompson so playing him would have been the ultimate for him I guess. If you watch it do so with an open mind!
Ian G enjoyed this more of a bloke movie although some ladies might like it I saw bits and pieces that's about it.
(Worth watching) - review by Ian
M y partner enjoyed this I didn't mind it once again he's versatile and greatly admired Hunter S Tompson and portrayed him well, it was funny in places .
Watch if you must but keep an open mind!
We didn't mind the Libertine somewhat different it really showed just what a brilliant and versatile actor Johnny D is.
(Worth watching) - review by Ian
I loved this movie it was very touching and Leonardo's performance was so realistic it was easy to see even then how talented he is. Johnny D was very good as Arnie's big brother, and keeping everything and everyone together and how we shouldn't judge people if they are different.
(Excellent) - review by Ian
Wow what a great house, we thought the movie was a little bit confusing to begin with. But as the story went along it became clearer.
The Departed had a great cast Leonardo was really good it appears yet another successful movie for him as his ability to become a great actor was seen in What's eating Gilbert Grape.
(Worth watching) - review by Ian
Well Ed Wood was different, but exact to it's era, I'm sure some would have a great appreciation for what this man would do to make his movies.
Well what can one say Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was worth watching I thought Johnny brought it to life with his usual screen presence and imagination.
(Worth watching) - review by Ian
I thought Chocolat was good even though Johnny Depps appearance was all of twenty minutes but juliette Binoche was great two actors who made it really enchanting to watch.

Ian enjoyed wickerman he found it interesting as he has seen the original so he compared the two.

Night at the museum was worth watching. It was a bit of fun on a Saturday afternoon, a great selection of actors made it worthwhile.
