someone should lose his head for this...

Rating: 5/10 (21 November 1999)

I've always enjoyed Tim Burton's use of fantastic locations to create mood, and I appreciate how he uses more natural surroundings in "Hollow" to create an unnatural world, but, no, no, no, no, no, no,....who wrote this piece of junk??!! Did you really need Miranda Richardson to tell the entire plot and give the reason for why she killed everyone??? Were you too busy picking popcorn out of your molars to pay attention? And did they need to blow up a windmill to keep my attention? I was fascinated by Depp's performance, but this sudden need to throw in pointless pyrotechnics lost me. The carriage chase scene seemed better suited to an "Indiana Jones" ripoff, and what the hell was Lady Van Tassel doing showing up again at the end to gloat over her victory???? which only put her in the position to be defeated.....the plotting during the last 20 minutes of this movie went right into the toilet! I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone I like.....
