Now Playing: Rango

Rango

Pirates of the Caribbean and The Ring director Gore Verbinski, known for his stylized visuals, makes a foray into computer-generated animation with Rango, starring Johnny Depp as the voice of a chameleon aspiring to be a swashbuckling hero in the Wild Wild West. From the previews, the movie doesn’t seem to know what it wants to be — comedy or dark fable? Still, the visuals look astonishing. Abigail Breslin, Alfred Molina, Bill Nighy and Timothy Olyphant lend their voices. Now playing. Visit fandango.com.
