One of my favourite movies of all time. I didn't rate johnny Depp until I saw this movie.
I was moved to tears by the vulnerability of Wilcox struggling so much to just live and.. inevitably failing, especially in his death.
I remember this as being engaging in a dark, sensual, and nihilistic kind of way
Not the best from Depp but it's not terrible either.
One of the ugliest films I have ever seen, but honestly it matched its lead. It had a measure of intelligence, but was irredeemably hideous.
I had no idea what to expect when I saw this movie. I wouldn't necessarily rewatch, but it was worth that one watch at least.
I remember this being a good movie. But I really dont remember the plot any more...
Average, but still nice to watch depp performing.
Johnny Depp is phenomenal but the film around him is that of a slow burn which can lead one to boredom.
Sets are interesting, but too dark. Malkovich was good, but didn't have enough scenes. I had popcorn, but did not have satisfaction.
