Review for Black Mass

Black Mass takes place in Boston in the 1970s. It is the true story of  Irish gangster James "Whitey" Bulger (Johnny Depp). It fallows Bulger's unholy alliance with the FBI to help bring down the Italian mob. As this alliance spirals out of control, Bulger increases his power and evades capture to become  the most dangerous gangster in U.S. history

 I loved this movie, I am a big fan of the gritty crime genera, and this movie brought a lot of my favorite elements of other mob movies that I loved into one picture. With drama, action, gore, good story line, and with a great cast, you get a thrill ride of ups and downs. This movie brings you into the story, letting you experience the actual life of a gangster. Johnny Depp brings his character to life, capturing the likeness of the real guy, with his temper, ruthlessness and spurts of insanity. Johnny is not the only one to bring a great performance to the screen. Benedict Cumberbatch  plays William Bulger, The most powerful man in the Massachusetts senate, as well as Bulgers brother. Joel Edgerton also brings life into his role of FBI agent John Connolly, who strikes a deal with Bulger, but slowly starts to be dragged into his world and starts to lose sights of his morals as the movie progresses. 
If you are as much of fan of crime and mob movies as I am, I think and hope you will love this movie as much as I did.
