The weirdest thing about this movie is how much it works.

Rating: 8/10 (2 December 2019)

Quintessential Burton. A weirdlicious juxtapositon of lurid suburban chic and bittersweet gothic lyricism.
Johnny looks amazing as the cold-to-the-touch hero with a warm inside, conveying a heart rending vulnerability and looking no less creepy for it.
Packed with plenty of humor, it makes you want to go along with all its sugariness because it earns it with a good dash of darkness too.
I was tearing up.
