This was really great. It looked like a Burton movie should and the acting was very good. I particulary liked Billy Crudup and Ewan McGregor.
I’m sorry I missed it on the big screen…

great review Denise!

I absolutely love the work of Burton (yes, even Planet of the Apes) and this review made me even more eager to go see Big Fish…

I can’t wait to see this – although the fact that most people seem to place it very closely to Edward Scissorhands scares me a little. ‘ love Tim Burton’s movies, Ed Wood being by far the best as far as I’m concerned, but I found Edward Scissorhands to be just too mawkish and sentimental. I’m looking for good things in Big Fish – I hope I find them.

Everything seems to be so Burton in Big Fish… the artwork is very Burton, including curly trees and nice colors… I am sure Sleepy Hollow, which is a mediocre story, wouldn’t be as good if directed by a different director…

I am also curious to see what he will do to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory…

I think, the whole world is curious to see what he’ll do to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The pressure is about as high as it was with LOTR.

“Soon Hollywood studios will tackle the Koran … in 6 sequels ”

and what’s that supposed to mean?

I knew it. I should have picked a different example.

@nari – It means: LOTR challenges others to translate famous epic stories to the screen.
