Extremely entertaining.

Rating: 10/10 (19 October 2002)

I absolutely loved this movie. It was extremely entertaining and captured my attention from beginning to end. Hilarious, sweet and very well directed.
Johnny Depp is one of the most versatile actors I have ever seen, there is no doubt about it. He has done every type of role and in lots of different looks and accents. He was absolutely excellent in this movie. I just loved the way he smiled and delivered his lines in just about every scene.
Martin Landau was very interesting to look at as well. Not only did he give an exceptional performance, he put on a great accent. Wonderful body language and facial expressions too. He deserved his Oscar.

Tim Burton is a very talented director and the way he looks at things it just so interesting. He has a very unique style about his movies. I've really liked every movie he's made so far. And the fact that it was made it black and white gave a perfect mood and setting for it.
Everyone else gave really good performances and were well suited to their characters, especially Bill Murray.
Very nice movie, well worth your time. Highly recommended.
