Great movie, very funny

Rating: 9/10 (27 December 2007)

Johnny Depp is hilarious as always, and Martin Landau also manages to portray a well-rounded character once all is said and done.
Two things I particularly liked about this movie: 1) Ed Wood's entreprenurial spirit. He's always a go-getter, looking for opportunities when the world is pushing him down. Calling up Vampira for a date, financing a movie from the Baptist Church, etc.
2) How Ed doesn't sulk when Sarah Jessica Parker's character leaves him. Instead, he goes out and finds somebody that will like him for who he is. So many times in Hollywood people end up getting back together with old lovers, mainly because it's an easy story to tell because you don't have to introduce another character. But this is more realistic and it teaches a better lesson. If you aren't compatible with somebody, you can always find somebody else.
