Sweeney Todd- A MUST see movie

Rating: 10/10 (9 February 2008)

I never expected to enjoy a musical movie in my life. I was automatically hooked on the movie when the opening started. The eerie sound and imagery already gives you a vivid idea of how eerie it will be. Of course, Johnny Depp does a remarkable job in the movie. He is so good in capturing the audience's attention and does a fine job in singing. I did not expect Depp to sing so well, but he did an excellent with all the other cast members.
I usually hate watching movies that spend most of the time with just songs. Sweeney Todd was 90% filled with songs, but that is what made the movie so good. In this movie, you cannot skip forward and not listen to the songs. If you skip the songs you lost the entire movie. They sing in such a way that it makes you want to sing along.
You barely see a movie that combines musical, drama, crime, and thriller in one. This is a must see movie.
My vote: 10/10
