Good, but not great

Rating: 8/10 (1 October 2005)

I went to see the Corpse Bride yesterday, and I really liked it. It was no Nightmare Before Christmas, but it was still pretty good. I personally believe that I expected to much. Tim Burton and Johnny Depp have always done wonderful together. But this was not quite up to the caliber of Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood, or Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Some of the parts of this movie were very good though. And some parts were actually quite emotional. A lot of the time these emotions were ones of sadness. It was definitely worth the nine dollars, twenty-five cents it cost me to go see it. It was a very good movie, excellent for all ages and genders.
