A truly deserving film

Rating: Null/10 (21 September 2007)

This film is about a man who was born with scissors as hands. He lived a lonely life in a mansion until he was brought to the world be a cosmetics saleslady.
it is quite amazing that this film achieved so much with a simple but innovative plot. Edward is "handicapped", but he is able to achieve so much that others cannot even dream of doing. This is a stark reminder that everyone has their own strengths, and we must not judge others prematurely until we have uncovered their strengths. I also like the humour in the first half of the film, before things turns sour. The haircut scenes are hilarious! The second half of the film shows how powerfully destructive gossips can be. It saddens me to see such an ending. This film is touching and affecting. Coupled with Johnny Depp's great acting through his spectrum of facial expressions, this film deserves all the praise it gets.
