Solid crime drama, the Boston locations were top-notch, and Depp was scary and compelling as the sociopath / serial murderer Whitey Bulger. All the Boston accents were good, but Benedict Cumberbatch delivered an amazing Boston accent. Depp is very talented, but that doesn't make him a pale Irish-American with blue eyes and white hair: Depp's heavy makeup and contact lenses were distracting and weird.
(AMC Burlington with Adam; I never got the new deluxe seat adjusted quite right this time.)
