By far Tim Burton's Best, but one of the greatest stage to screen triumphs to date

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 2007)

It was beautiful. The music, the acting, the emotion, and yes, even the blood. Gallons of it, and it was all prettier than you could have imagined. One of the darkest comedies out there, you will find yourself laughing hysterically, hiding your face in your hands. cringing at the bloodshed (body count is, i believe, 26 or something like that) and crying for the emotional depth this film attempts and succeeds in digging. This film dares to go where very few others have gone, and it was absolutely stunning! On top of that Depp and Carter's performances were stellar (as is per) and could sing pretty well. Although the original calls for a more operatic setting, Depp pulls of the creepiness of his character.
