simply good

Rating: 7/10 (15 November 2005)

'Ed Wood' is a film that is considered a good film for several reasons, and it is a film that I imagine most people would like if they would just give it a chance. But, don't let that spoil it or hype it up. You really have to watch the film to believe it yourself.
'Ed Wood' is a semi-documentary film about a film director who produced some films that were considered pretty dreadful. This film introduces us to Ed Wood and his many friends, most of them actors and people in the movie business, and his love of dressing up in women's clothing. (This film's humor is often tongue-in-cheek and even witty in places, but it's also sad - and certainly not a comedy.) If you're bored of the typical current movie and want a little something to make you chuckle and think a little bit, then I suggest you watch 'Ed Wood'.
