Rating: Null/10 (13 June 2004)

Edward Scissorhands is about an Avon lady who is having an off day so she decides to try her luck at the mysterious castle that overlooks her suburban community. Here she mets Edward, a young man with sharp shears for hands, and she decides to take Edward home with her. Here Edwards falls in love with her daughter Kim, but unfortunatly Kim is not too found of him(at first) and she has a real ass of a boyfriend. Edward is also accepted into the community(again, at first) and he wins their praise with his talents in haircutting and gardening. He even tries to open a beauty salon but doesn't have enough money. Well Kim convinces Edward to help steal from her boyfriend's parents(he can pick the lock) so they could have thier own van. Edward is, of course, caught doing the act alone and the community turns against him thinking he was stealing for the beauty salon and rumors begin to fly. Meanwhile Kim discovers that she really does love Edward as the community hates him more and more.
Edward Scissorhands is a classic for many reasons. The music and art direction are flawless(the fact that neither won the Oscar is bad, the fact that neither were even nominated is a downright sin). Johnney Deep gives a mesmorizing performance as the title character and the supporting cast is good as well(Kathy Baker is nothing short of hilarious as the neighboorhood slut). It's funny, magical, and touching. One of Burton's best.
