Not Your Typical Kids' Animation

Rating: 8/10 (2 November 2016)

Tim Burton strikes again with another hit animated film. If you're in the mood for something unsettling, but not outright terrifying, then this is the movie for you. With big names like Johnny Depp (Victor) and Helena Bonham Carter (Emily) providing the voice acting, Burton brings to life the story of an arranged marriage, but with some added twists, like the interference of the undead and a couple of jazz musical numbers. Get ready for an emotional ride as you find yourself sympathizing with the undead and the plight of the young lovers caught in a love triangle between Victor, Emily, and Victoria (Emily Watson). Though a great movie to watch around Halloween, I highly recommend it for any occasion.
