a good humorous movie with classic Burton filmmaking

Rating: 8/10 (19 May 2012)

I personally loved and enjoyed this movie. Having no knowledge whatsoever of Dark Shadows, I went in with no expectations and no preconceived notions, not knowing what to expect other than the brilliant combination of a Burton/Depp movie.
If you are a stickler for details and a fan of the series, you may not like this film. It is a but bipolar in the sense that it can switch from dark to comedic to romantic in seconds, but overall I had an enjoyable experience and I recommend this movie to anyone with an open mind. I honestly think that if people would stop picking at little things and just sit back and enjoy this movie for what it is, then people would have a much better viewing experience. I give an 8/10
