Forrest Gump + O Brother, where art thou

Rating: 4/10 (23 February 2004)

Sorry folks ! Tim Burton is clueless since "Ed Wood" and gone is the creative magic touch of "Edward Scissor Hands", replaced for cheap melodrama. This movie is plain boring with its overblown sentimentalism and takes too much from the universe of "O Brother where art thou",(magical realism and typical USA southern characters) and from "Forrest Gump" (the main character bends the world reality, creating your own). I was a great admirer of Tim Burton past works and make this comments was truly very painful to me. FG
