Tim Burton and Johnny Depp at their very best.

Rating: 10/10 (2 April 2008)

Tim Burton has done an excellent job into adapting a stage musical into a movie.He was the right choice to direct the film in my opinion.As for Johnny Depp,I found him to be like Edward Scissorhands with a Jack Sparrow accent.His performance as Sweeney Todd was sensational,especially because he was able to combine his then 2 best ever movie roles into his own best ever.
Helena Bonham Carter was excellent as Mrs Lovett but the only problem I had with her character was that she looked to much like Bellatrix Lestrange (who she also portrayed) from HP5.I also found Mrs Lovett's character quirky and I like quirkiness.Alan Rickman was marvelous as the malevolent Judge Turpin.Sacha Baron Cohen,although he wasn't in it very long,provided a humorous flourish to the movie as the fraud-master Pirelli.Don't know the actor's name but the guy who played Toby was a good addition (he could sing well for his age).
Sweeney Todd overall is an excellent stage show that Tim Burton has successfully made into a fantastic movie.
10/10
