This is a must see movie

Rating: 9/10 (16 January 2005)

This film came as a big surprise to me. I basically went to see it because Johnny Depp is nice to look at and it started when I could be there. John Depp was convincing as usual. However, I wasn't prepared for the degree of sensitivity given to his character. Freddy Highmore, the young man who played Peter is an amazing actor. There was nothing childlike about him. Ms. Winslit has done it again. I can't say enough about the movie or the players.
Done poorly, this could have been a real snooze. Instead, it was one of the most beautiful films that I've seen in a long time.
The only thing that bothered me when I went to see this movie was the strange little man sitting next to me in the theater. Every time John Depp or Freddie Highmore came onto the screen, this man made motions at the screen. I finally asked him who he was and what was he doing. He answered ... My name is Oscar and I'm knocking.
