Burton, almost brilliant in an animated feature.

Rating: 7/10 (7 August 2009)

I guess it has all the potentials for becoming better than it was. The animation is pretty cool in Gothic and Johnny Depp's voice was clumsy and very young that fits in his character. But the only problem is, it was too rapid and almost a half-baked animated film. Burton looked like he haven't got sufficient time to make this more astonishing! The film was completely fast and unable to touch the spectators. The tale is wonderful and clear but unfortunately fast, it could've been more dramatic if it emphasizes more on the tragic love, so the happy ending is much more felt by the watchers. You couldn't ask for more, the story was sure excellent, but what I'm asking is, to make it more lasting and enduring. It could've been great but it was fine.
