Burton-esque

Rating: 8/10 (22 November 1999)

I really liked this movie. Granted, it was not scary at all, so if you are looking for a horror movie, then DO NOT go see this one. But this movie does have Burton's creative imagery shining through every angle.
There isn't anything really spectacular about the acting, or the horror aspect of the film, but the direction is just amazing. Tim Burton does it again, what can I say. With Edward Scissorhands, Batman, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and now Sleepy Hollow, he has a nice bag of films under his belt that he should be very proud of.
Burton has the ability to be so creative in so many different ways that only a microscopic amount of directors can do. A perfect example is the animation in The Nightmare Before Christmas (if you haven't seen that yet, what are you waiting for!). That movie had so much imagery and imagination that it made the movie phenomenal.
Anyway, go see Sleepy Hollow, and if you're not looking to be scared, you will enjoy it. My grade: B
