Movie can be addictive!

Rating: 10/10 (20 February 2008)

Pleasantly surprised by how well everyone sings, and you can hear the words! This is not an ordinary musical for sure. Bought the soundtrack and am anxiously awaiting the DVD. I think the fact that these are actors first made the movie more enjoyable. The casting director should get an Oscar, everyone fits their roles to a "t".
Johnny Depp has yet to make a movie I didn't enjoy, and this continues. Helena Bonham Carter tends to pick scary, wild-woman parts, but I think this role could be her finest ever. And Alan Rickman always was good-looking, but now he sings, too!
Tim Burton has topped all his other movies with this one. Saw it multiple times in the theater, if you missed it, better at least put it in your list from Netflix.
