Mortdecai is a 2015 comedy film directed by David Koepp and starring Johnny Depp, Gwyneth Paltrow, Ewan McGregor, and several other talented actors. The film is based on the comic novel by Kyril Bonfiglioli of the same name and is set in the elegant surroundings of London's high society. The story revolves around the eccentric and charming art dealer Charles Mortdecai (Johnny Depp) who is desperately in need of funds to keep his lavish lifestyle afloat. Mortdecai, who is constantly in debt, is approached by an old acquaintance, MI5 agent Alistair Martland (Ewan McGregor), to retrieve a stolen painting belonging to the British government that is believed to be the key to accessing a hidden fortune.

Mortdecai, along with his faithful manservant Jock (Paul Bettany), sets out to find the painting, but he soon realizes that he is not the only one who wants it. In fact, the search leads him into a web of dangerous criminals, corrupt officials, and international spies who will stop at nothing to get their hands on the valuable artwork.

As Mortdecai races against time to recover the painting, he has to navigate through a number of obstacles, including his wife Johanna (Gwyneth Paltrow), who is not impressed by his antics, and an assortment of strange characters that threaten to derail his mission.

The film is a hilarious and entertaining ride, filled with witty dialogue, slapstick comedy, and great performances by its talented cast. Johnny Depp shines as the suave and sophisticated Mortdecai, who is willing to go to extreme lengths to obtain what he wants, while Gwyneth Paltrow delivers a stellar performance as his long-suffering wife.

Ewan McGregor's character, MI5 agent Martland, adds a touch of seriousness to the film, but he is also involved in some of its funniest moments. Paul Bettany's Jock, Mortdecai's trusty sidekick, provides the perfect amount of comic relief with his dry wit and impeccable timing.

The film's production design and costumes are also worth noting, as they perfectly capture the opulence and decadence of London's high society. The film is also filled with beautiful locations, including an opulent mansion in the English countryside, and several bustling cities around the globe.

Overall, Mortdecai is a fun and entertaining film that will keep audiences laughing from start to finish. Its talented cast, clever script, and engaging storyline make it a must-watch for anyone who loves comedy films.

Mortdecai is a 2015 comedy. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.5 and a MetaScore of 27.
