Burton Film Finally Takes My Breath away...well, it would...if I had any ^-^...

Rating: 9/10 (20 April 2006)

Overview:
Plot: Great
Characters: Excellent
Music: Good
Animation: Fair
Overview: Personally, I have never been a fan of Tim Burton Films, So, when I first heard about it in a USA today newspaper in an article about the latest Burton-Depp film, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Burton's partnership with Depp (Johnny Depp, I mean), I immediately thought..."Nightmare Before Christmas all over again...Oh, BOY!" Well, as a birthday present, I gave my brother, Sean, Corpse Bride on DVD, since he's got probably 50+ DVDs (Mainly Disney Films) in his room. A little more than a month later, I wanted to watch Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (One of me and Sean's rarity of Favorite movies), but couldn't find it...then I came upon Corpse Bride and decided, "What the heck? I'll give it a shot..." I discovered I most certainly underestimated this Academy Award Nominated film...
Reasons to watch: The voices. A barrage of talented actors and actresses lend their voices to cleverly crafted characters.
Fave Character: I personally loved Victoria Everglot (Voiced by Emily Watson)because her voice was perfect and she had a pleasant, kind air about her.
10/10 for this film. Magnificent! One of Burton's best films. Also Stars Albert Finney, Joanna Lumely, Tracey Ullman and Christopher Lee.
