The movie really dragged on. The core of the movie plot was somewhat intriguing but the execution was did not work. The movie was not funny enough to be a comedy; not realistic enough to be gripping; not exciting enough to stop you from squirming in your seat. The comedy was too extensive to be comic relief and their was not enough drama to need to be relieved. Johnny Depp, a fine actor, was annoying as the almost drunk sounding lead. More swishy than swash buckling.
