You're the ruler of the Galaxy, Show A Little Taste!

Rating: 7/10 (13 January 2017)

Another successful collaboration between Burton and Depp. This movie offers a good insight into Ed Wood and Hollywoodland back in the day.
I only came to know Ed Wood through this movie. Depp has done well by bringing him to life in this black and white light drama, his portrayal eliciting laughs from the viewer, but never full blown pity. His sheer optimism despite his circumstances is endearing and comical.Together with a good cast, the director brings out a believable portrayal of the campy movie director that was once tagged as the Worst Director of All Time. Martin Landau's likeness to Bela Lugosi was laudable. I have to say, the sound on this movie would take you right back to the black and white era of Hollywood. Think Bride of the Frankenstein.
If for nothing else, watch this movie for the one liners. The one liners in this movie are the best thing about it, in my opinion!
