An emotional fairytale of modern world. A must watch movie

Rating: Null/10 (25 August 2008)

An excellent movie. I started to watch it only because I saw Johnny Depp in the cast but the unique story of the film, the idea, theme and on top of all Jhonny Depp's acting, which we all expect from him, makes it top class. Edward (Johnny Dep) was abnormal in the way that his hands were actually scissors but he has imagination of an artist and he can make anything he want with those hands. He was brought to normal world by a kind local Avon lady, Pegg Bogs (Dianne Wiest). The so called normal world couldn't accept him despite his talents and efforts to please them and this makes him run away to where he came from. The end isn't that bad but not good either. I wish if the people could knew the truth about him and the reality about Jim and what ever happened with them, right from the start (i.e. robbery till murder). It was emotional. I was so happy to find out Edward didn't die in the end but I believe he deserved better. He was promised that a doctor can fix his hands and he can become normal. Would have been great if that promise was fulfilled.
