Great intro to Johnny Depp

Rating: 8/10 (24 July 2004)

This is the very first movie in which I saw Johnny Depp - and I was hooked.
A lot of things were very unbelievable, such as how the heck does the man dress himself with those hands? But then, it's a fantasy, or maybe I should say sci-fi story.
The topiary forms were most unbelievable, as those animals, etc. couldn't have been shaped from the trees and bushes that he worked on. The viewer just has to go with the flow and not be too critical of those things and must allow for a great stretch of the imagination.
That said, I love Depp's acting and since this movie, I have bought everything of his that I can get my hands on.
