10/10
A film to keep in your library
9 July 2010
A fairy tale that is moving and beautiful. Definitely a multiple time screener.

This and Nightmare before Xmas is Burton's best work. You really become involved with the characters, their alienation and "different-ness".

Even the heroine who appears to be the popular girl, has a side of her that just doesn't fit in with others.

The cinematography is beautiful, the score is emotional and the acting fantastic. Vincent price is delicious as well as the whole cast.

It's a blend of comedy and tragedy and pulls you through a wide range of emotions through the film. A real trip, and unforgettable!

IMO, The character of Edward is one of the classic characters in the history of fantasy film, alongside Willie Wonka, Oliver Twist, Mary Poppins, ET, Alice in wonderland and a few others.

One of my top ten of all time. If you haven't seen it, I promise you, if you have a heart, it will touch you.
