Yeah, I agree Johnny Depp played that role to the "T." I bet the actual Whitey Bulger would be impressed how well Depp portrayed his life. I seen the movie & was mesmerized how these small time wise guys became major Mob Figures. It also showed me even reputed killers will turn Fed/state to save their own ass. The funniest thing is the only one who didn't tell was the FBI agent O'Connelly. He's the only one that is doing his time & didn't try to bargain with the government to cut his time. The irony in that is fucking CRAZY!!!
Just watched the film. Very dark. No humor. Johnny Depp gave a performance like he never has before. I always loved "Donnie Brasco" and "Blow", but both of those "characters" were at least likable. This was not. This was the first time I ever watched Johnny Depp and never once liked his character. That's not to say his performance wasn't great because it was. I think he deserves, at the very least, an Oscar nod for this. Joel Edgerton also deserves a Supporting nod. Everyone will talk about Depp, but Joel was amazing as well. Great, great movie. I'm tired of explosions and bullshit remakes all the time....give me a story. This film did. Kudos to everyone involved.
Johnny Depp did an intense performance as Whitey Bulger in Blackmass . When me and my girfriend watched the movie we thought Depps performance was very eerie and how cold hearted he was .
Some people who dealt with the real whitey bulger were amazed and shocked how real jonny depp played the part. Apparently one guy was scared it was the real whitey and not an actor.
The fact that Depp wanted to actually talk to Whitey Bulger in person in order to perfect the role proves how committed he is to playing these characters
Watched it last night and it certainly brought to mind Coppola's and Scorsese's classics. Depp is in depth a class by its own, only the early DeNiro a match in truth! I thank you so very much for having it posted 13 02 2016
See that’s what my grandpa always told me. If you’re gonna commit a crime or whatever it may be do it by yourself. That way nobody can tell on you because in the end no matter what ppl will always look out for themselves no matter who it is or who they have to throw under the bus. It’s happened time after time with family or friends.
Yeah, they still have some work to do to make convincing blue eyed contacts. That's not Depp's fault, of course. But most non-blue eyed people who wear blue contacts come off looking like some kind of possessed super hero...the contacts are too blue, too striking. Overall though, the movie did a good job recreating Bulger's look
I think this is Johnny's way of proving himself again after a line of bad roles. I've always enjoyed his good movies, and I'm glad he got this one and did it superbly.
I love gangster films and will see this. But lets not pretend that Hollywood or Johny Depp are realistically portraying the real life of Whitey Bulger. That being said it is nice to see Johnny return to form.
Wish I could have liked it, but after seeing the Goodfellas I haven't seen a better gangster movie again. Johnny did a good job, but all the makeup didn't work and he's just a little too small in stature to pull it off. Good job, but didn't like it. Sorry.........
This was such a great movie. Depp nailed it in every way. If this movie doesn't win multiple Ocsars, then the award show is rigged

i agree same as tom hardys performance as ronnie and reggie kray
@@SoFla_I-95roadrunner You SAW the movie. You didn't "seen" it
''Whitey Bulger used to scare some very scary people'' - Best quote Ive ever heard about him from a former FBI Officer.
best actor ever. Congratulations Johnny Depp for another great character.
Just going to ignore the exitence of Daniel Day Lewis and Gary Oldman?
This screams oscar
What can you say ? Johnny Depp IS one of the World's Greatest Actors. He needs more movies like this.

+Mr Riggs Needless to say Whitey Bulger is an evil person. Pics of the real Whitey put shivers down my spine. Seriously
"Johnny Depp went to great Depp(th) to play this performance" - Scott Cooper
I don't know how Johnny depp can not get an Oscar for this legendary performance

Depp is a brilliant actor
his performances are always unpredictable. that's what i love about his acting
Some people who dealt with the real whitey bulger were amazed and shocked how real jonny depp played the part. Apparently one guy was scared it was the real whitey and not an actor.
One of the best movies I've seen in many many years. I didn't think Hollywood could do it anymore.
Finally, a serious role. Good to see him step away from Tim Burton type films.
That "take your shot" line in the bar scene gives me chills...
The fact that Depp wanted to actually talk to Whitey Bulger in person in order to perfect the role proves how committed he is to playing these characters
depp for oscars
Johnny Depp and Benedict Cumberbatch? Fuck it I am in...
Johnny Depp needs multiple oscars for this
Watched it last night and it certainly brought to mind Coppola's and Scorsese's classics. Depp is in depth a class by its own,
only the early DeNiro a match in truth! I thank you so very much for having it posted 13 02 2016
johnny deep is gonna win an Oscar before Leonardo DiCaprio i bet you for this movie!
I agree with you!
thats what i hoped for but.......
Now that I watched the movie I can finally watch this
"You got in trouble because you punched the sneaky little brat in the face in front of other people."

I can't wait for black mass Release
Great movie
I can already tell this will be the best movie of the year! IMO
they eyes look crazy like robert downey jr in tropical thunder as the monk

What a Movie.
In my opinion, His best Performance, hands down !
Read the Book, then watch it again !
Leo would have been fucked if Johnny was also nominated for the leading role Oscar.
wb's. so far i see a very stacked year in best actor category. johnny deep, tom hardy, dicaprio, matt damon, tok hanks, eddie redmayne, will smith....
Whitey was a hero in NY neighborhood growing up
Now let's see if The Academy agrees with us.
Thank You Amber Heard. You’ve cancelled this wonderful talent based on lies
Two most intense moments imo (spoiler warning)
When Whitey is "face raping" Connelly's wife and when he is choking the shit out of that guy
Wow. It's like he's acting.
Depp is back!
Crazy how these guys have english accent but sound like perfect americans
what a great movie is was!
I watched this movie twice its great!
Dakota's eye, holy hell!
Fantastic movie!
Whitey Bulger for president 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲😈🔥🔥💯2021
2:01 oh yes daddy 🤤
Depp went to great depths heheheheheheheheheh 😝
Johnny depp is really busy he plays with his Daughter in Yoga hosers I love him a lot .
I love gangster films and will see this. But lets not pretend that Hollywood or Johny Depp are realistically portraying the real life of Whitey Bulger. That being said it is nice to see Johnny return to form.
+Chad Sheeks Gotta make things look good for the camera.
Still don't know how does Johnny look like in real life :D
Meaning when he plays those really deep characters including black mass. Scare the living shit out of me, i loves it
Deserved an oscar but whatever
this movie gets so much hate i really don’t get it
bulletz 2 da chest
Iam waiting FOR movie
What's the song in background?
Why no Boston actors to play these roles? English men are superb actors but the accents just ain't right and they don't look Irish
the bright blue eyes are a little too much
+Jared Wignall even if they are...they just dont look real on depp
It's to make sure he played him as accurate as possible. I personally believed him as Whitey. I forgot I was watching Johnny Depp.
+Jared Wignall i forgot i was watching johnny depp too. but he had like a comic book villian look to him with those eyes and everything.
to each his own I guess
I definitely see no Oscar around... :-((( And I will never believe promo again. Never. Ever.
Wish I could have liked it, but after seeing the Goodfellas I haven't seen a better gangster movie again. Johnny did a good job, but all the makeup didn't work and he's just a little too small in stature to pull it off. Good job, but didn't like it. Sorry.........
Everybody has an opinion and a right to it. Depp is a truly fabulous actor, but the movie did not work for me and many other folks.
+Carl Washington haha did you do the makeup
Hi Johnny Depp, did you watch the movie? No!
"Not like any character we've seen before"? He seems a lot like every role of Jack Nicholson to me...
Butt
FIRST
Great movie
