Easily one of Burton's best

Rating: Null/10 (19 July 2004)

I enjoyed this film very much. Not a classic Burton but who cares? I loved being able to see the most mundane things through Edward Bloom's eyes...the part that got me best was when he first laid eyes on his future lady, and everything stopped, and he romantically stepped through hoops and moved popcorn to get closer...it conveyed how he felt in that moment. It's impossible to take this movie literally, it's full of lessons in love yet quirky and odd. The cast and crew prove to be just as wonderful as Mr. Bloom, the colors and clothing and places are all so surreal and lovely...I just watched it again and have to say it's worth a purchase, rental, or viewing.
