In the remake of Charles Dickens’ classic "A Christmas Carol," Depp plays the selfish and stingy Ebenezer Scrooge.
"A playful, fun Christmas treat and a strong comeback vehicle for its star," writes film critic Tom Chatalbash, while Critics Choice member Clarence Moy calls the film "a pleasant surprise" and believes Depp’s portrayal of Scrooge is one of the best in modern times.
Others are less impressed. Film critic Ren Viera praises the set design and production but thinks Depp is just reusing "his old tricks."
"Ebenezer" is Johnny Depp’s first major Hollywood film since the legal dispute with his ex-wife Amber Heard.
