I Gave In and Am Happy About It

Rating: 8/10 (17 July 2018)

For some reason I quickly developed a resistance to seeing Edward Scissorhands upon its original release. Tim Burton and Johnny Depp working together again, it just held no interest for me. So all these years later I decided I needed to finally check it out and am very happy I did. Far from perfect there is still a lot to enjoy about this film: Danny Elfman's score is magical and moving, Johnny Depp is actually quite good, and Diane Wiest in fantastic. The sets, costumes, and overall look is fun and interesting. Yes, this film touched many emotions, it's funny, sad, and moving altogether. If you're like me and resisted seeing this film I suggest you check it out, you might be as pleasantly surprised as I was.
