7/10 - Good

Rating: Null/10 (19 November 2008)

I give Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street a grade of seven out of ten points. It's a good movie with good singing, I was surprised how good Johnny Depp and the lead actress were as singers. The performances are very good and Johnny Depp is top notch as usual. He completely deserved the Academy Award nomination he got for this and was good enough that he easily could have won it and maybe would have if more people had seen this movie. At any rate it is only a matter of time before Johnny Depp will finally win an acting Oscar, definitely, I don't see how the Academy of Motion Pictures can ignore him forever. If you like musicals you'll love this movie or if you're a Depp/Burton fan you will love this movie.
