One of the best movies of all time but not for everyone.

Rating: 10/10 (25 June 2005)

I'd have to say right now... not everyone will enjoy this movie. Edward Scissorhands is about knowing you should fit in, you want to fit in, but no matter what, you can't. I'd have to say the people that don't like it just don't understand what the message of the story is and/or they can't identify with it. My parents actually had to persuade me to rent it because i was reluctant but...WOW. In the very beginning how the old Kim said that Edward was left "incomplete and all alone", my heart jolted. Edward Scissorhands was so wonderful! It was beautifully done with all the acting (johnny depp, Dianne Wiest, ANthony Michael Hall, Wynona Rider, etc), of course you can't forget Tim Burton and Danny Elfman! This movie isn't just a comedy or love story, it's so many things... one second it's hilarious the next heart-wrenching. Johnny Depp's Edward Scissorhands character just makes you want to say "Aaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww" lol. After seeing it for the first time, after it ended i actually cried and instantly fell in love with it. I often just watch it once a day because it never gets old. I'd have to say that from watching this movie you'd never know it was made in 1990, it looks like it could have been made in 2003. Overall, i'd have to say Edward Scissorhands is a pure timeless classic.
