I loved this movie. I can see why Leonardo DiCaprio and Johnny Depp are great actors now as they both acted fantastically in this film. They don't make movies like this anymore.

My favorite Johnny movie. Possibly the most real character he ever played, close to someone that could have been him.

Gilbert Grape is a classic. Leonardo Decaprio's performance as the mentally handicapped brother is superb!! Johnny Depp comes to us in a totally different character. This is the story of a family facing hardships both internal and…
