Very enjoyable

Rating: 10/10 (11 March 2004)

This movie in my opinion was one of the best of 1999. I loved the whole idea of Tim Burton tweaking the story a little bit to make it his own. Johnny Depp is a delight as Ichabod Crane, he never seems to disappoint. If you are a lover for Pirates of the Caribbean Johnny Depp, then you will love his quirkyness in this movie. The movie is about the basic Sleepy Hollow story, except for a few Tim Burton twists, which make the film better. Had Burton followed the usual Sleepy Hollow formula, I don't believe that the film would have been as enjoyable as it is. He's one of the great storytellers of our time, and this film is another testament to that. The supporting cast is perfect, Christina Ricci is great as Catrina. And i won't ruin the suprise for others, but they couldn't have picked a better actor to play the Hessian himself. This movie is sure to be a favorite for movie lovers. It's just really fun to watch.
