Not Bad

Rating: 10/10 (16 September 2004)

Not bad at all. It's another type of Tim Burton's film. I mean there is sometimes sad but well played parts. Johnny Depp was unrecognized to me in the movie. To me it was the lame minded and bad directing Edward D. Wood Jr. Truly. The movie was a bit long but it was worth seeing the performances. Though I couldn't imagine seeing johnny Depp in woman's clothing, Bill Murray acting like a total fagg, and Jeffrey Jones acting like a "strange man" in person. But the movie was great. It's like a good director (Tim Burton) directing a film on a bad director directing! I didn't payed much attention to Jessica Parker's or Lisa Marie's performances. But Depp's and Landau's performances were well focused and the judging is simple; Depp-7/10 & Landau 9/10. It usually shows on HBO or the Max channels, or Encore History (If you have those channels) and if I had a choice of watching a brand new film on the channels like for example "Mystic River" or "The Two Towers"... Ed Wood would still be my choice. Why? Because the performances are worth watching. I just can't wait for it to come out on DVD on October!
