The magic Within!

(Possible Spoilers)
Rarely do we get the chance to see such a breathtaking vision of movie making.
This film is so beautiful, from Tim's dark story telling and hidden depths to Johnny's wonderful and touching performance as the innocent and misunderstood Edward.
It is one of those movies, which capture your imagination and stick within you for the rest of your time.
We find Edward a lone, innocent man, accepted into a society where as hard as he tries he cannot fit in, only because of one thing, his hands, or lack of them. It follows a route many of us may have experienced some time in our lives, not being accepted because of something, and this I believe is what touches us the most about this movie. The way in which we can relate to the innocence and want of acceptance.
It contains the essentials needed in the 'perfect' movie, comedy (see some of Edwards facial expressions), strong powerful emotions and even romance.
It is a typical Tim Burton movie (Nightmare Before Christmas, Sleepy Hollow) deep and dark though with a touch of sensitivity, following his normal dark fairytale route flowing through strong emotions and the usual not so happy ending.
A must see movie for all, touching, powerful and emotional throughout
10/10
