Tim Burton proves his flexibility and his softer side

Rating: Null/10 (2 January 2004)

Tim Burton has proved he is not just about making noir films. The script and the story are utterly lovable. You really identify with this movie if you've ever had any disparate feelings about your dad, and wondered what he really did when he was away. Second, but most of all, the special effects enhance this story instead of upstage it. Finally have we reached the time that effects arent all about explosions and big guns. They can really help to tell this story. I highly reccomend seeing this before it leaves the big screen, because that only makes the movie that much bigger. A+
