Grade: C+
This is a long, bloated film that went for campy, cartoonish thrills. In other words, it was made for kids and while it had moments of beauty, and maybe even moments of genius, it never really transcended its own wax figure of itself.
The Lone Ranger isn’t a bad movie; in fact, it has some of the best shot action scenes of the summer. It simply didn’t reach for the highest version of itself.

Armie Hammer gives a surprisingly heartfelt performance while Johnny Depp mugs his way through the entire movie. Depp is such a naturally talented actor, I have to think he was forced into this bad performance by lousy dialogue riddled with half jokes.
Helena Bonham Carter plays Red, the sharpest, most intriguing character in the movie with the smallest amount of screen time. Her ivory prosthetic leg that doubles as a rifle had more dramatic and comedic juice than any mask the Lone Ranger could ever wear.

RunPee is an excellent app that has all the info you need when going to the movies. Whenever I go to a movie, I open up the app and know when the best time to dip to the bathroom is. They have pee times for movies just a few hours after their release and it shows the dedication the team has for the service. Definitely recommend for any movie-goer.

If you go into the theater with very low expectations, you will enjoy the movie.
Creator and developer of the RunPee app. When something doesn’t work right in the app it’s pretty much his fault. 🙂
Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.
