plot starts out as sort a a typical boy-on-revenge-mission meets girl, then turns into a twistedly funny misadventure.
sacha baron cohen cameos as an flamboyant italian barber who ends up at odds with johnny depp.
and although depp and carter are in "stereoptypical" characters (johnny as a tortured dark protagonist, and helena as unkempt borderline sociopath), i could never get tired of seeing them in variations of those roles.
two thumbs up & rewatch value.
