Shortly before his career went off the rails, Johnny Depp starred as crime boss Whitey Bulger in Black Mass, which is now on Netflix.
Shortly before controversies completely derailed his thriving acting career, Johnny Depp starred in an intriguing biographical crime film as Irish mob boss James 'Whitey' Bulger. Based on Dick Lehr and Gerard O'Neill's 2001 book Black Mass: The True Story of an Unholy Alliance Between the FBI and the Irish Mob, the movie Black Mass follows Whitey as he forms an unlikely alliance with the FBI to help take down the Italian mob.
In his review for The Atlantic, Christopher Orr called Depp's starring role 'a welcome respite from the parade of prancing pseudo-villains—Mortdecai, the Wolf, Barnabas Collins, Jack Sparrow, Willy Wonka—to which he has devoted far too much of his career.' Although it didn't make our list of most anticipated Netflix movies for September, Black Mass is worth the watch if you're in the mood for a well-acted crime drama.
