It's Oscar Worthy!

Rating: 10/10 (23 December 2007)

Johnny Depp stars in the best movies ever, and Sweeney Todd is one of them. Based off the 1979 Broadway musical, Depp plays a man named Benjamin Barker, who was removed from his family and taken away to prison for a crime he didn't comment. 15 years later, he returns as Sweeney Todd; the demon barber of Fleet Street. When he comes back to London, he encounters Mrs. Lovett played by Tim Burton's wife Helena Boham Carter and slits out the throats of innocent men who come to his shop for a shave so he can get the revenge he wants truly badly on the judge who ruined his life.
I won't spoiled the rest of the movie for you, not even the ending, but I will tell you this...Sweeney Todd is one hell of a serious good movie, and it's got a little bit of humor of it. But the best part about the movie is it's a musical. I'm a fan of musical movies but I strongly dislike horror films, but this one was more than I expected. Johnny and Helena's singing was truly remarkable and the fake blood they use in the movie was outstanding, you can't tell whether or not it look real. To me, it took too bright to ever look like blood. You'll be stunning amazed once you watch the movie. If you're a fan of Johnny Depp, Tim Burton or just like musicals or horror movies, this one is for you.
The movie is nominated for best actor, best director and best actress. Johnny Depp totally deserves to take home the Oscar!
