Yawn

Rating: 6/10 (13 April 2000)

A standard action script with great costumes and production design. The ridiculous finale at the windmill could have been original and creative, instead, I feel like I'm watching "Speed" set in 1799.
Nothing original at all from Burton, he's just repeating himself. Brilliant (award winning) production design, costumes, and the acting is so/so, despite only Ricci and Depp being given actual characters to play. I didn't care if anyone else lived or died... and neither did the filmmakers.
The look, 9/10. The story, 2/10. Yawn.
6/10
