My favorite movie of all time!

Rating: 10/10 (11 February 2007)

I'm serious, "Beetlejuice" from 1988 is my all-time favorite film. I was four when it was first released and I have loved it ever since. No film can top this one in my book. You're probably thinking that this film was a little too scary for a four year old but somehow it didn't' scare me. This film is a classic! I think it was perfectly cast. Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis were perfect as the couple the Maitlands, although Alec Baldwin's sense of humor can be totally dry sometimes. Winona Ryder, Catherine O'Hara, and Jeffrey Jones were also perfect as the kooky new residents of the Maitland's beloved home. But I thought Michael Keaton was absolutely perfect as Beetlejuice. I can't think of any other person who could have played him as impeccably as Michael Keaton. His mannerisms were perfect and he was actually perfect for the makeup! If that makes any sense. The graphics and the cinematography were stunningly visual, considering the year this film was released. The storyline was unique and the script was perfect. And there was never a dull moment in this film. The humor was excellent! I loved all the jokes. And of course the character of Beetlejuice spat out the best of them! I never tire of this film. It is so good and I absolutely love it. It is my #1 favorite film and I'm glad I have it in my collection. Thank you for reading my review!
