Corpse Bride

Rating: 10/10 (6 February 2006)

I recently received this as a DVD for an early Valentine's Day gift. I watched it today, and thought it was great. It is up there with The Nightmare Before Christmas(1992) as a technical masterpiece. The major standpoint is Burton's return to stop motion, only this time around, there are a few minor computer effects. Great musical numbers from such characters as the Corpse Bride, Bonejangles, and the Widow and Maggot. Interesting storyline and lively characters make the grim and strict atmosphere more enjoyable and loose. Good voice acting and transition throughout. Very few gray areas, and a few laughs as well. Overall, a good picture from Burton. 10/10.
