Not the average Disney movie...

Rating: 9/10 (14 July 2003)

Most Disney movies that I've seen were nice, fluffy movies about happy things such as fairies and pretty, pretty, princesses. This one was different in that it's a lot darker than the average Disney film, and more crude, as well. While the movie was very well written and well played out, parts of it didn't quite make sense. The plot seemed to move quickly, which was usually a good thing, but not nescessarily. For instance; there was very little introduction for Johnny Depp's character in the beginning. He just popped up all of a sudden. There were maybe one or two holes in the plot, as well. Overall, however, this was the best movie I've seen so far this summer. As I said, the story line was very good, and the selected actors played out their characters perfectly (although more about the characters was to be desired). So, in short, this film is worth the $8 to go and see in theaters.
