Summary: ninth gate
Review: i am the fan of jhonny depp, i don,t know why i like him, sometime i think he seemed wired and like evil, especially his eyes. anyway he has a strong character and more different with other people. for me i like his voice very much, actualy i fall in love with his special voice and accent.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Sweet Johnny Depp
Review: I don't think it's fair when people write biographies about actors and whatnot. They portray Johnny Depp to be an evil person or some sort of crazy killer or something. He really seems like a sweet guy and who cares if he's made mistakes. Haven't we all? I'd just say... stick to his amazing movies and don't read exploiting books like this one. Also... whoever said his eyes look evil... they need to be put on medication. He has the BEST eyes ever. They're mesmerizing and gorgeous!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A True Story
Review: I think the book was a good and well writen book. It mostly tells his true life story in a discriptive way. I would recomend this book for teens who are fans or just want to read!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Johnny Depp: Nigel Goodall Bio
Review: It's mainly a rehash of all the information we already know just by reading magazines and watching tv. There are some nice photos though. I read it in one day. Though not deep it's acceptable.

Note: Since Johnny Depp is a private man I don't think a good Biography would be possible, so this is the next best thing.

Summary: Johnny Depp has an interesting life
Review: People call him a bad boy, a weird person, or even evil. All I have to say is, he sounds like the sweetest guy, and I'd like to meet him. Sure he's done some stupid things, but let me ask, if he was perfect, would anyone be interested in him at all?

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Disappointment for true Depp Fans
Review: What was this author thinking writing an unauthorized bio on one of the most private men in Hollywood? Due to Depps refusal to contribute what this book actually ends up being is a movie/video guide on all Depp's movies. To top it off the info provided on these movies is not correct. In the movie "Whats Eating Gilbert Grape" Depp's love interest Becky in the movie is travelling with her grandmother not her mother as the author states in the book. Any avid Depp fan like myself would remember these details which makes me question the credability of other info in the book if this simple detail is incorrect.
Almost every page has relevance to Winona Ryder. Depp's bio surely doesnt just revolve around her. Kate Moss and Vanessa Paradis are short changed undeservingly so.There is no information on Depp in this book that you can not find on a Depp website. I also found the authors writing style to be poor without any pizzaz to keep the readers interest.Too much emphasis placed on the hotel trashing bad boy Depp that the tabloids try to present years back. More emphasis should be on the artist Depp truly is. A big screen genius who isnt even aware of the impact he has on his fans. It is true you cant judge a book by its cover because this book has a five star rating for its cover. It does have an amazing selection of black and white and colour photos of Depp which justifys the purchase of this book for true Depp fans.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Why on Earth ?
Review: WHy on Earth would someone write a biography about Johnny Depp ? Is the biography market so good that it makes it worthwhile for the profits ? Anywa, Johnny is a great actor, independent and careful with his screenplay choices. "ED WOOD", "EDWARD SCISSORHANDS", "SLEEPY HOLLOW" .. all are great proof of his talents. THe book is good, but nothing more thatn that. If you're a Depp fan, stick with his movies.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Johnny Depp really loves his roles!
Review: Wonderful reading about Johnny Depp, if you don't know much about him already. Althought there are few mistakes, f.ex. Vincent Price never did any Frankenstein movies, and he isn't British actor (Mr. Goodall must have been thinking about Peter Cushing....), they don't really matter, because you get a good and fair picture about Johnny. Funny thought, that text is quite large-sized, is the publisher thinking: bigger the product, bigger the prize???
