Johnny Depp is really good in ALL of his movies but one of his best and one of my favorites is Pirates of the Caribbean. He made Jack Sparrow Jack Sparrow. It wouldn't have been the same without him.



Have you ever seen the Inside the Actors Studio with Depp? With each character he plays he incorporates so many roles into it to make the character seem like a real person. He is so talented.

Johnny Depp has become a much better actor over time.. since the days of Jump Street. I liked Him in "Crybaby." LOL

Ed Wood



Ed Wood is a comedic fiction film posing as a biopic directed by Tim Burton, starring Johnny Depp as the cross-dressing cult movie maker Edward D. Wood, Jr. The film, shot in black and white, was made in 1994 and based in large part on Rudolph Grey's quasi-biography Nightmare of Ecstasy.

God, there are so many. Johnny Depp is good in all of his films, but Id have to say my favourites are Jack Sparrow, Edward Scissorhands and Ichabod Crane. I cant comment on Sweeney Todd because I havent seen it yet, but I cant wait til it comes out

Maybe Inspector Aberline in From Hell. It is not a nice movie to watch, but it was an impressive performance and I haven't seen any of the Pirates of the Carribean movies. Then again, Johnny Depp has so many good performances, it is not easy to pick one I think.

Ichabod Crane in Sleepy Hollow!, that film rocks



Although Jack Sparrow was 10/10

Donnie Brasco - Gilbert Grape



Has anyone ever seen him at 18 years of age in the movie "Private Resort" - His first (Co-starring role)? My husband worked stunts on the film and was in acting class for two years with Johnny before he went to CA to seek his fortune and fame.

Secret Window -- His acting was incredible in that movie.



My second choice would be Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. If I watched the movie without knowing Johnny Depp starred in it, I never would have guessed that he played Willy Wonka. His performance was amazing.

It is not Jack Sparrow and it is not Pirates, of that I'm sure!

He showed great acting in Blow, Fear & Loathing, From Hell and so on. I guess he deserved prices for all of these but he gets his only oscar-nominee for this pirate-role. Don't get me wrong: he was good in that and the films itself are ok, but in almost every film he did, he was much better from an acting point of view.

I like the Pirates movies the best. And I think Sweeney Todd looks good as well.

Jack Sparrow of course. But he is really talented. All his characters are unique. He is simply the best.

Edward, in Edward Scissorhands



Secret Window was a film where I first realized that he was a good actor.

Well, I honestly haven't seen all of his movies, but of the ones I have seen, I'd go with Edward Scissorhands.

'The Libertine'. While it is not my favourite Johnny film, I think his acting was superb.
