This documentary-styled film made along the lines of 'Argo' and 'Zero Dark Thirty', is about a South Boston street kid named Whitey Bulger who started out as a petty crook and went on to become a powerful crime lord - with the active connivance of the FBI.
The film would have been quite ordinary, had it not been for the inimitable Johnny Depp, who showcases his versatility yet again by giving us a finely layered performance that keeps you riveted to your seat, wondering if this is an autobiography or an act.
Definitely a must for Deppophiles; the rest of you can comfortably give this one a miss
