Was he ever a good actor?
He was good in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape but Leo obviously stole the show, and he was pretty good in Secret Window. I think the problem with Depp is that pretty early on he was sold as a guy who did weird Tim Burton characters really well and he actually doesn’t at all he’s very bad and distracting. He’s better at playing an Everyman/sociopath but he’s not aging well and looks like an aids patient so idk where his career goes from here.
looks alot like ethan hawke in that pic
What was his last successful film? He's someone who it seems like Hollywood hasn't given up on, but he's on a hell of a losing streak.
He was good in Ed Wood, Edward Scissorhands, Gilberts Grape, that's about it.
He was great in Fear and Loathing.
Even if he never was I've always enjoyed his presence on the screen.
Yes when he cares
>Fear and Loathing
I can name you 50 actors who would have been better in this role.
1 John Malkovitch
No.
Johnny is a pretty face who never trained for his vocation. That's how he got into the industry in the first place. Now he larps like he's English or French or whatever.
Reality check.
I'm a director, for starters. Listen closely:
"good acting" isn't something you measure on a scale of 1 to 10, you autist. It's infinitely more about whether you and other people enjoy someone's acting or not. There's no objective way to say who's a good or bad actor when it comes to mainstream films: nobody in these can ever be a truly bad actor, as these don't get into the business at all, no matter how many Jews and family you think are involved. Truly bad acting does not get on the screen if the movie cost money, you can be sure of that.
Now stop being a fucking autist.
>autist who can't read facial expressions now judges actors
Get out of here.
>People with autism often have problems with social, emotional and communication skills. They might repeat certain behaviors and might not want change in their daily activities.
Reminder that if you actively enjoy memes and post them yourself, you're an autistic retard.
Yes he's one of the best actors of modern times. No need to be contrarian.
Curse of the Black Pearl is one of the best adventure films ever made, in no small part thanks to him.
What are some of his best performances in the last 10 years then
Only if you keep posting the same meme over and over. The influx of autists is why this place is now just inundated with a million slightly different shitty pepe and wojack edits in place of varied reaction images and memes.
Found the Where the Buffalo Roam contrarian
His performance, well all of them, in Finding Neverland has always stuck with me. One of the few movies that I cry every time I see it.
Very underrated movie.
Reminder that his bff River Phoenix died outside of his club from overdose. How did he get away from it?
No. He was just well utilised by competent directors. Which is perfectly fine, but it's so obvious whenever he's in a film by a director that can't use him properly.
No. He is not that level.
sweeney todd, but his best kinos are from the 90s
Good in Donnie Brasco. Possibly because he played it straight.
