[.uk] The Secret World of Johnny Depp: The Intimate Biography ... (ISBN 1857825977)

dont waste you money !!:
if you are interested in reading about the plots for all of johnnies movies i suggest you buy this book---to call it an intimate BIOGRAPHY is a joke---i can find more interesting info about johnny depp browsing the internet. there were of course a few facts about his life sprinkled in among the details of his movies---i SAW all of his movies i didnt need a synopsis of them all over again----look around, folks, i am sure there is something much more interesting than this book.

Johnny Depp Biography:
This is a well written book by someone who is quite familiar with his subject. There are things inside the book I had not known before even though I am a very big fan of Johnny Depp. The book is very well researched and written in a friendly knowledgeable manner. I really enjoyed it and it is an asset to my library of Depp books.

Depp Deserves Much Better!:
I haven't seen every Johnny Depp movie ever made but I've seen enough to recognize a great talent at work. Depp is certainly a fascinating enough individual and talented enough actor to rate a well-researched, insightful, in-depth biography. Unfortunately it ain't this book! Author Nigel Goodall subtitled his book an "intimate biography." Wishful thinking, Nigel! Although there's some biographical info, SECRET WORLD OF JOHNNY DEPP's main focus is actually JD's film work. Basically the book is a cobbled-together collection of previously published quotes, interviews and movie reviews from 40+ magazines, newspapers, etc. It wasn't written so much as assembled. The personal details Goodall provides are pretty much common knowledge; the insights already found in "People," "Rolling Stone," et al. Strictly cut-and-paste. Bottom line: Unless you have to have EVERY book on Johnny Depp, skip this one and save $12.95. ****** Note to Mr. Goodall: "Cunningness" (p.293) is not a word.

WONDERFUL:
THIS IS A VERY INFORMATIVE & INTERESTING BOOK ABOUT JOHNNY DEPP. CONTAINS LOTS OF THINGS I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT HIM. I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK FOR ANY JOHNNY DEPP FAN. A MUST READ.

The Secret World of Johnny Depp:
Nice collection of photos and insight to Johnny's childhood and early years but I prefer Christopher Heard's book Johnny Depp Photo Album.
