Johnny Depp in Tim Burton's Sweeney Todd

Rating: 10/10 (12 January 2008)

The only movie that almost made me throw up! Anyway, Tim Burton's Sweeney Todd is still an amazing and beautiful film. Johnny Depp is terrific as the tensorial killer. Helena Bonham Carter and Depp both do have beautiful singing voices and Sacha Baron Cohen hams it up as a rival barber that used to know Sweeney, but when he was Ben Barker. SPOILER:In the scene where Sweeney finally kills the fiendish Judge Turpin, Sweeney continuously slashes Turpin's throat and a splurt of blood hits the skylight. Actually, the really sick part of the scene is when Sweeney turns, looks back and as Turpin's neck is still a bloody waterfall, he turns and nearly hacks off Turpin's head. Sweeney Todd is Tim Burton's best film and my favorite film.
