Johnny Depp Scores Lowest Wide Release Opening Since 1999

“Mortdecai” is loosely translated into “10 deaths.” That’s an understatement. Johnny Depp’s terrible comedy marks his lowest wide release opening since 1999’s “Astronaut’s Wife”– that’s excluding limited releases of smaller non tentpole movies like “Finding Neverland” (a hit ultimately), “The Libertine” (a disaster), and “The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus” (a daffodil in the wind, box office wise).

He has Amber Heard and yacht off Cape May going for him.

I knew Mortdecai was a disaster when it got a January release.

[Sasparilla]

He heard what?

Meanwhile, American Sniper is making money like a pancake house at a lumberjack convention.

[Borges]

When was the last time he played an actual human being?

[Hugin]

When was the last time Depp had a hit that wasn’t a pirate movie?

My heart bleeds......

I’ve been watching Pirates of the Caribbean tonight.

Actually fun fairly family friendly flicks.

[PistolPaknMama]

I’ve never even heard of any of these movies. He’s supposed to be a big star??

Also, “Dark Shadows” was a big disappointment.

I don’t like Depp politically, and the personal side he’s revealed is less than palatable. But I’ll admit that what I’ve seen of his acting, is pretty impressive. My overriding thought is that he should either be a) a theater/stageplay performer or b) was born way-many years too late to be the acclaimed character actor he would’ve been, back in the day.

They blew that movie so far away from it’s concept it shouldn’t have had that title.

Public Enemies was one off Depp’s best movies imho

[Mangia E Statti Zitto]

I loved Ed Wood.

Queen Esther is NOT amused.

[Rapscallion]

He has my boycott going for him too. Never again!

[mylife]

He was made for Theatre.

I still watch “Dead Man” from time to time.

He can be pretty good in the right role - Donnie Brasco was a decent film, although Al Pacino pretty much carried it.
