   Why is 'Minamata' a good movie?

   • “Minamata” showcases its desire to be an important movie in almost every frame. It tries to be a character study, a commentary on the power of photojournalism, and a study in how the large profit margins of major corporations can attract those without moral compasses.

   Is Johnny Depp in 'Minamata' based on a true story?

   • Despite being the central character, Johnny Depp is the least interesting part of “Minamata,” Andrew Levitas’s film based on the true story of the photojournalist W. Eugene Smith who, in the 1970s, helped to expose the devastating impact of mercury poisoning on coastal communities in Japan.

   Why is 'Minamata' a bad movie?

   • “Minamata” is often undermined by its protagonist, whose boorish ways clash with Japanese culture and distract from its central message. Gene is guided by Aileen, who corrects his manners and teaches him empathy, such as when he insists on photographing a victim’s face. He, and therefore the film, keep their subjects at a safe distance.
