This is more down to earth and despite its minor blemishes it is a film worth watching. But I can't say the same thing about Sleepy Hollow. And here I think Tim Burton shuttles between horror and comedy and tries to be different only for the sake of being different. The result is Sleepy Hollow falls between so many stools it is hard to count them. If you laugh more than thrice right through the film you should consider yourself lucky.
Heads roll and keep on rolling, almost sadistically.
Everything is topsy-turvy and if director Burton finds it funny that's his problem. Anyway Sleepy Hollow is not my kind of entertainment. Before the halfway mark all you wait for is the end, and believe you met, it is a long time coming.
