best musical ever.......

Rating: 10/10 (27 May 2008)

Sweeney Todd, The Demon Barber of Fleet Street is without doubt one of the best films ever made. it is very difficult to create a film with the same magic and beauty as the musical itself. this film successfully portrays every single character in such a brilliant and unforgettable way! i had very high expectations of this film from the start, because of it being a Tim Burton production. the music is set so wonderfully; it flows very well, and all though much of the songs are cut short, they still convey the same magic as the musical. and what can i say of the acting!! Johnny Depp (the best actor of all time), Helena Boham Carter, Alan Rickman, Timothy Spall.... the cast is absolutely amazing! each character adds a certain spark to the film and keeps the plot going. from the singing to the slicing of the throats, every actor leaves a wonderful mark in movie history. this gory, humorous and unforgettable film is definitely a must have... you will be dancing to "Pirelli's Miracle Elixer" or "Epiphany" constantly! (I know i did). Bravo to yet another marvelous film by Mr. Burton!
