Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse!

Rating: 9/10 (30 June 2006)

Wow, this is one of the best Tim Burton's movies.It's funny, it's cute, it's well-acted, it's charming... It's very entertaining and interesting. All the actors are really good, specially Michael Keaton and Catherine O'Hara. They're very funny.
Very common in Tim Burton, always trusting in the wonderful composer Danny Elfman, who also has composed for many Tim Burton films like "Edward Scissorhands", "Batman" and "Batman Returns". This time, Elfman's music is as great as those other films. He shows us a dark, original but simultaneously funny and cool soundtrack.
The script in the film is very good and original. Some situations are really funny and some characters say things that makes you laugh a lot.
"Beetle Juice" tells us the story of a recently deceased married couple, Adam and Barbara, who are locked up in their big house after they had the car accident,so they can't leave their house. Days later, a strange and crazy family (a suffered man, Charles, his crazy artist wife Delia and his daughter Lydia) moved to their house. But Adam and Barbara don't want them to live in their house, so they decided to call a bio-exorcist called Betelgeuse, who can help them to expel the family. But there is one problem: Betelgeuse is not like Adam and Barbara hoped.
The protagonists in this film are Michael Keaton as Betelgeuse, Geena Davies as Barbara, Alec Baldwin as Adam, Catherine O'Hara as Delia, Jeffrey Jones as Charles and Winona Ryder as Lydia.
One of thew best parts in the film are very very funny, like the scene when Delia, Charles and Lydia are having dinner in the house with some friends and they begin to dance. Wow, that scene was really funny and I enjoyed it. Another great part in the film was the ending, when Adam and Barbara make Lydia dance after they notice she pass his Maths exam. A really cool and funny scene.
Please, watch this film. It's really a typical Burton movie, you should see it. You will like and you will fall in love (with Betelgeuse?). You also will enjoy with the fantastic Betelgeuse character. But only one thing: don't say his name three times!
