The role: Burton again, but this time it all feels a little bit more strained, as though Tim were working out his own issues.

Still, Depp impresses as Ichabod Crane, all gawky cowardice and gadget-obsessed neuroses as the ghost-hunter.

Jack Sparrow-o-meter: Like me, the man’s cowardly, but he’s such a square! No, thank you. 4/10.
