Tall tales? True stories? Doesn't matter, this film is excellent!

Rating: 10/10 (10 January 2004)

What a great film! A great story, a fun and touching script, great acting, and a quintessential Tim Burton set design. From start to finish, this film is entertaining and if you're not moved by the ending, you have a heart of stone.
I don't think I've ever been to a film that I could not find even one little thing to gripe about. I have never given a "10" to a film before, and doubt I ever will. "Big Fish" is a class act that will be tough to follow.
I hope at least the screenplay gets an acknowledgement by the Academy.
