Delicate, poetic... fabulous!

Rating: 10/10 (12 March 2004)

This will be for sure one of the top ten of 2004! I loved Big Fish! Burton's back with his traditional symbolic tale, so full of poetry, so delicate in it's metaphores. It makes you smile, it makes you feel good... and it makes you think. Ewan McGregor is very good, and so are the other actors, with an exception maybe for Cudrup, who's a bit too fake and makes a bit too much the "serious son". Dialogs are excellent (I love Senior Ed Bloom, who ALWAYS has a story ready, an answer ready!), scenes are excellent and the whole movie is drowned in Burton's poetry. Excellent movie! Definitely a "must" of the year, and not only for Burton's fans.
