It was, OK...up until the end

Rating: 6/10 (12 January 2008)

Sweeny Todd, one of my favorite "Non-Fiction" serial killers... Johnny Depp, well he portrayed the "Demon Barber of Fleet Street" quite nicely. You see however, that is not the problem. The movie was great in my opinion up until the very end when Sweeny Todd is killed by the boy. You see, it left (in my opinion) too many "loose ends" like for instance, "What happens to his daughter? Will she escape and be happy?" And, "What about the boy? How will he explain all the bodies?" You see, the ending in my opinion frankly just, sucked. Beyond that this movie was very good... Nice to see a movie that didn't focus "Only" on Johnny Depp. The musical numbers were great, and the atmosphere, was terrific! Tim Burton has the great "Gothic Touch" and has done it again. I'd just love this movie better if Sweeny Todd hadn't ended the way it did...with him being killed and all.
