Johnny Depp, while unrecognizable in wig and makeup, is terrific (and scary) as the Boston Irish mobster James “Whitey” Bulger, who prowled south Boston in the 1970s and whose work with the FBI raises, to say the least, very tough questions. Unfortunately, the movie itself seemed repetitive and about 30 — 40 minutes too long. Don’t watch it late at night as it’s relatively slow-paced.
