I personally loved this movie :) Even tho as mentioned it does tend towards the shallow side, it did have alot going for it, for me Halloween is one of the more favourite holidays! When else can u dress up and try to look as ugly as possible and then get candy for doing so? ;) Ahh, thats a good holiday!
Well, now back to the movie. I thought that it was really good. I haven't seen something like this for a while and as a result it was a treat to see it 0=] The sheer amount of work that went into this movie shows by the fluid animation, altho at times it isn't the best it is far supeior to anything that i've seen before. Jack himself looks excellent and i love the songs in the movie!
There are some faults, like the lack of character diversity within the film, there ARE only 15 main puppets, but that was mainly due to the limit of man power and money, i think its already been mentioned here that Jack had around 600 different and individual heads!? Wow! And now just think about what would have happened if they had had to do that on a factor of 60, just like any other normal movie? That would have been madness :(
The movie is one of my favourite movies i have no doubt, it had everything that i like in a movie, a few freaks and a love story and also someone trying to break out of their boundries which they feel are constricting them, go see it and try to forget about all the bad things which can be apparent, listen to the story and what is happening, i think you'll be surpised about how deep this movie is!
