Boring, uninspired and dull

Rating: 1/10 (2 November 2005)

I KINOW Burton can do better - this is what disappoints me most! The characters are uninteresting and really lifeless; even the living dead are really and truly dead. The Musical-Style with the singing makes things even worse. If Burton wants to copy Disneycartoons with singing and dancing,he should do so - if he wanted to make fun of them, he failed. The figures are not nice enough to enjoy looking at them - and they're not ugly enough to be interesting. I felt like looking at an introduction to a computer adventure and longed for a "skip intro" button all the time. "Corpse Bride" is not at all funny, not at all exciting, not even romantic or Kitsch... it's a pure waste of time for everybody who is over 10 years old. Even the kids will love "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" or "Mars Attacks" much more, I bet (like I did)! I really love animations, this is not the reason, but there are much better films than this one. The best I can say for this movie is: "It does no harm". Very disappointing!
