Have no interest in seeing this in theaters but i'll rent it. A buddy of mine saw it and said it was better than the RT reviews total. Probably just under Pirates

Jesus.
The highly anticipated film didn’t even take in $30 million in theaters this weekend, which is pretty low considering the spectacle’s $225 million budget—a sum no doubt inflated by Johnny Depp, star producer Jerry Bruckheimer, and award-winning director Gore Verbinski. It’s as if the Miami Heat spent lavishly on its three marquee athletes and failed to make the playoffs. Based on an 80-year-old radio series, the film failed to draw young viewers, didn’t impress critics, and may have a tough slog at theaters outside the U.S., given its Wild West setting.

Good. Looked stupid from the start, and the rest of the world is finally catching on that Depp has sucked for a while and only plays the same character.

The problem with Depp's image has more to do with his other repetitive roles in Tim Burton films. Edward Scissorhands, Willy Wonka, the Mad Hatter, Barnabas Collins, Ed Wood, even his character in "The Corpse Bride"... they're all the same effeminate, pasty-white, conflicted awkward quiet man-child thing. So it's easy for people to just assume his Tonto is more of the same (either Jack Sparrow and/or the "pasty white quiet awkward guy"). |

This movie never looked like something I'd want to see.
Johnny Depp should stick to Cap'n Jack Sparrow. |

Saw this with my two teen kids last night. We enjoyed it. It was as I expected it to be. It's The Lone Ranger, it's not Shakespeare.
