Mortdecai | Ratings & Reviews

"Mortdecai isn't quite as awful as the trailers and advance public response would have us believe – the breezy caper antics occasionally spark and the winsome supporting cast seem to be having fun. But it unfortunately cannot overcome the superlatively grating central performance from Johnny Depp, who plumbs new depths of crapulence here."

"There’s a fatal shortage of zingers to supplement its exhausting zaniness."

VarietyVariety

"Depp may be suffering the most catastrophic career slump since Eddie Murphy said yes to Norbit, but he’s still perfectly watchable."

Time OutTime Out

"Depp's wizardly expertise at disappearing into a character is intact. But what if that character isn't funny and hasn't an ounce of charm?"

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"Compared to the mustachioed gurning going on here, Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow was a study in bleak Bergmanesque understatement."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"David Koepp’s strained farce is like Being John Malkovich if Malkovich were a mustache entering its own whiskery portal."

The DissolveThe Dissolve

"Those who do find their way into this supremely silly action-mystery caper are in for a few grins if not laughs thanks largely to the deft - and daft - performance of Depp."

Los Angeles TimesLos Angeles Times

"Mortdecai is an anachronistic mess that never succeeds in re-creating the breezy tone or snappy rhythm of the classic caper movies that it aims to pastiche."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"Very close to disastrous, there's an unavoidable feeling that Gwyneth Paltrow and co. are having much more fun than you are, what?"
