Non-Spoiler Review:

Mortdecai brings a few okay antics to the screen but it just falls over itself constantly during the movie. Johnny Depp’s Mortdecai feels like an extension of Jack Sparrow. If you would still want to watch this movie then be prepared to enjoy Jack Sparrow outside of the pirate gear.
