Based on a true story, as told at the end. It has great potential, but it fails to follow up with the numerous sub-plots it just throws in to make up the two hours, and the main plot lacks real emotion. Sunday-night movie only.

The movie's pacing could have been better, and the ending is, in my opinion, anti-climatic. Decent performance by Johnny Depp. Cumberbatch's American accent is the real highlight of the movie.

While I can appreciate the strength of Depp's performance relative to the typical roles he plays, one above-average performance does not a movie make. If you liked The Town you'll probably love this movie, but I found myself thinking more about Depp's make-up than the rest of the movie after leaving the theater.

While factual movies are always interesting, this particular one failed to hold my attention despite a veritable who's who of acting talent

Depp is great in his role, I confess the makeup is so good you can barely tell its him!

If it has no other accolade, it probably does hold one for the most prolific use of the 'f' word!

I'm not really a big fan of Johnny Depp, but in this film I really enjoyed his performance. That being said, Black Mass is only an okay movie. It tells an interesting story but it doesn't leave a mark nor will I remember it as a masterpiece. If you have a couple of hours it's worth the watch.

I was expecting something more from the trailers, it wasn't that good of a movie, but it was very nice seeing Johnny Depp play something else than a pirate or some Tim Burton's crazy nightmare.

The writers of Black Mass seem to believe that a solid portrait of a character can be composed by a series of disconnected and unrelated events as long as it leads to a definite conclusion, which, judging by the final product, is not true. Depps's performance and the cinematography are the only things which will allow this movie to be remembered, which is unfortunate, as the amount of potential contained within this story is staggering.

Its a well made film but unfortunately cinema is awash with many such crime biopics and this film offers nothing new to make it stand out from the crowd.

It somehow was really boring. Was close to iron shirts but ended up playing around with my smartphone. There was not a single spot that could be classified as suspense or surprise or anything. Pretty much mobsters talking to another bad guy and then killing the other guy. Burry the bad guy and then repeat with some other bad guy. Intermixed with various people talking and not killing for a change. Why did I watch this?

With a better screenplay this movie could be so much better. I'm disappointed. The perfomances and the colors are great.
