When you don't share other's enthusiasm...

Rating: 5/10 (6 April 2004)

It gives a strange feeling, going to the cinema when you received so many positive comments and read good reviews and...when out...you start trying to understand why you did not receive anything from the movie. Tim Burton is a very creative director, with an explosive genius for invention, but the movie simply does give the impression to be looking to explore the immense resources of human kind but it confines itself to the level of a nice, well presented and funny fairytale, with a touch of self obligingness and a tendency to capture the tears of the public.
No, this looks like an ambitious shot which has missed his target because it was too...big.
