The Lone Ranger
So, now that Johnny Depp has moved on from the Pirates of the Caribbean series of movies, we all wan to know what his next adventure is going to be like in his executive produced movie, “The Lone Ranger”. I’m more inclined to say that this is the same bag of tricks that Depp uses in the Pirates movies.
If you’ve seen all the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, you’re probably going to be entertained in this movie with all the action that is in the movie. There are some good laughs as well as some tense moments, which give this movie a great “ride” sense.
The reason I say it’s a ride is, well, let’s face it. Disney is in the business of making money and wants people to come to new things in their parks. This movie would be a perfect theme ride. I’m betting that the reason “Thunder Mountain Railroad” is under construction and not opening until september/october time frame of 2013 is that they are going to change the theme of Thunder Mountain Railroad to something with the Lone Ranger incorporated.
I know about this thunder mountain railroad remodel because I was recently at Disneyland at the beginning of June. I was rather disappointed that this ride was down and had a new GoPro camera ready to go just for this ride.
Sigh….
So, back to the movie review.
After seeing this movie this evening, I would recommend it to anyone that asks me about it but be cautioned that this is (like I say above) more of the same with Johnny Depp. Perhaps it should be called “The Lone Ranger of the Caribbean”
Now, the acting in this movie is pretty good with some established actors playing in this adventure – and that has a big impact on whether or not this movie will make money.
The Lone Ranger could very well be turned into a series just like the Pirates of the Caribbean Movies.
The Lone Ranger Grade: B-
