Greatest Johnny Depp Movies

America's greatest actor (or at least in my opinion) has been in so many great films, it's hard to tell which is best. What do you think?
The Top Ten
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

Johnny Depp nailed Captain Jack Sparrow's character! Perfect makeup, drunk attitude, wobbly walking, gun handling, and sword fighting.

Pour the self-made eunuch jokes for Will Turner (Depp made them himself) into the mix, and you get one of the best characters of the century.

This is one of my favorite film franchises, so of course it's going to be my favorite Johnny Depp has ever done.

1. Pirates of the Caribbean
2. Finding Neverland
3. Alice in Wonderland
4. Sweeney Todd
5. Edward Scissorhands

This movie is one of my favorites! Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow is definitely the best character in the film. I love how witty yet ambitious he is.

I still sometimes randomly start humming the theme song.

Edward Scissorhands

Scary, sad, and heartwarming. It's rare to find a movie with all that.

One of the best movies I ever watched.

Sweeney Todd - The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

Jack Sparrow is my favorite Johnny Depp character, but Sweeney Todd is my favorite Johnny Depp movie.

Great direction and performances, splendid art direction, and it's the only musical that I have loved in a while.

I thought the movie would be a disappointment, so I thought I should not waste my time watching it. But when I watched it, it turned out to be Depp's best performance ever.

I have never seen a movie like this.

Johnny Depp was amazing as Sweeney Todd. I was a fan of the stage show before the movie came out, so I didn't think I would like it, but his performance blew me away.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

Easily the best performance of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies.

Exciting, funny, and overall a great movie. Johnny Depp doesn't get better than this.

I love this movie. This is my all-time favorite Pirates of the Caribbean movie.

Sleepy Hollow

It was the first Johnny Depp movie I ever watched. I really loved it and still watch it many times when I get a chance. Worth watching. Johnny Depp is really a great actor.

This is the movie that got me interested in Johnny Depp, and it is my favorite movie!

A Nightmare on Elm Street

It all started with this one. Unbelievable.

What's Eating Gilbert Grape?

This is the kind of movie that changes your life. It makes you want to change something (if there is something to change). It's the kind of movie that makes you stare at the screen for minutes even after the film ended.

I loved it. The acting from both Johnny and Leonardo is great, and the story is unforgettable!

A very underrated movie. People said that DiCaprio stole the show, but I never believed that. The whole movie centered around Depp's character: his thoughts, relationships, and actions.

Anyone who places Elm Street higher needs to realize his role was minuscule in that film.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Very good film. Depp looks funny but gave a terrific performance. Ideal for kids.

Depp gave an awesome performance. I don't know how many times I watched the film!

A classic film! Awesome! It is a film that I always watch when it comes on!

Alice in Wonderland

I like this Alice in Wonderland better than the cartoon one. I think this one is much better.

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

This is one of my favorite movies ever! It has everything: action, comedy, and romance. Johnny Depp plays the best character in the movie.

My favorite part would have to be when Jack gets stuck in Davey Jones's Locker.

A perfect fit for a pirate lover. Savvy?

The Newcomers

? Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald
? Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales
The Contenders
Ed Wood

A fantastic film with what is probably Johnny Depp's best performance.

I have not seen it. However, I've read the screenplay. It's fantastic.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

One of the greatest movies ever made. If you are into deep character analysis, this is the best bet.

Finding Neverland

I absolutely adore this movie. It's the best Johnny Depp movie ever, I think.

Tim Burton's Corpse Bride

A brilliant Tim Burton film, and Johnny was brilliant in the role of Victor.

The Lone Ranger
Donnie Brasco

Next to Public Enemies, it's the best movie based on a true story I've ever seen. Great cast and great acting.

As with most Johnny Depp movies, it makes you think.

Blow

From this top ten, I think this is my favorite. Great movie and great acting from Johnny.

Rango
Once Upon a Time in Mexico
Platoon
Dark Shadows

He was wonderfully talented in this. He managed to be endearing and funny at the same time. He deserves a lot more credit for carrying the entire movie!

Mind-blowing story with Johnny Depp's acting and evergreen beauty!

Thumbs up for him. No one can match him. He is perfect in Dracula's role.

Dead Man
Secret Window

I've never read the book, but the movie is great. You don't understand what's going on until the very end, and even then you won't be sure what to believe.

Very mysterious movie. I love the plot.

Love this movie. One of Johnny's finest.

Chocolat

Chocolat is a great movie: sweet and beautiful, with a perfect soundtrack and lots of chocolate. And Johnny is so cute.

Beautiful soundtrack, fun story, and yummy food!
