Every character is introduced only to be abandoned shortly after. Johnny Lee Miller and Chloe Moretz are forced to walk parts for most of the running time. Michelle Pfeiffer fares a little better, but she isn't given much to do in all her screen time. Poor Bella Heathcote, her performance is fine, but most of her performance must have ended up on the cutting room floor. She is supposed to be the love of Barnabas' life, but she spends very little screen time with him. This just takes away any emotion from the climax because, despite what is said, these two characters feel like complete strangers. All that's left are the two stars of the show, Johnny Depp is his usual watchable self and does well to keep his character likable given all the unlikely things he's asked to do. Eva Green is over the top and incredibly psychotic has the lethal witch who refuses to accept that Barnabus will ever love
