(Oxford, England) – See all my reviews Any reservations that I had about the film being be a turkey, were almost immediately quelled upon seeing the movie. From the offset Mr. Depp throws himself into the role of Icabod Crane with enthusiasm and gusto; portraying excellently a man of "science" suddenly out of his depth in legend. Christina Ricci also plays the role of Katrina van Tassel superbly; a sure sign of good things to come from this talented young actress. I would be reluctant to call this film an outright horror film - the special effects are used primarily to enhance the plot and visual appearence, and the gore level is low. The visual detail is a masterpiece - the sets are fantastic and lighting brilliant. Tim Burton has superbly used music and suspense to build the thrill in the film.

However, the comical interjections provide the required break-up of the suspense. All in all a very well put together film, with solidly good acting, and most of all a superb plot. Well worth seeing! 155 of 181 people found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes The Johnny Depp Archive: Sleep Hollow Skip navigation Sleepy Hollow (1999) Starring: Johnny Depp, Christina Ricci, Christopher Walken, Michael Gambon, Miranda Richardson, Christopher Lee, Richard Griffiths, Jeffrey Jones, Ian McDiarmid Directed by: Tim Burton Rating: And so in my quest to review everything Johnny Depp's ever been in, we come to another Tim Burton movie: Sleepy Hollow, based loosely on the short story by American author Washington Irving. Johnny Depp plays Constable Ichabod Crane, an uptight city policeman (in 1799?) obsessed with sense and reason, cause and consequence, who believes everything in life has a rational explanation.

Banished to the farming town of Sleepy Hollow (by none other than the mellifluous tones of Christopher Lee ) to solve a series of gruesome murders, Ichabod is at first convinced that the ghostly headless horseman the townspeople hold responsible is very much flesh and blood. A Scooby Doo solution, in fact, with Old Man Withers from the amusement park unmasked at the end. Wrongo. As ever in a horror movie, science and logic prove woefully inadequate and even ridiculous in the face of the spirit world. Equipped with a bizarre array of investigative gadgets and scientific apparatus, Ichabod sallies forth, inventing forensics way ahead of time. But his dogged adherence to sense and reason conceal a deep-seated fear of irrationality, along with a host of inner demons (his mother was accused of witchcraft and put to death in the Iron Maiden. Metal!). As well as facing up to the supernatural horseman (rational explanation: it's Christopher Walken with creepy contact lenses and pointy teeth) he must also confront and come to terms with his own past.

And all credit to the man, he does so with aplomb: once faced with the irrefutably ghostly nature of the horseman, he embraces the supernatural with the same gusto he once applied to science, and sets out to discover who can be controlling the monster's action. SPOILER folks so look away if you've not seen the film: it's Miranda Richardson, excelling yet again in the wicked stepmother/evil witch role she does so very well. Although chances are the minute you saw her appear you knew she was responsible. She just doesn't seem to do nice these days. Like all Tim Burton creations, Sleepy Hollow is visually beautiful, set in a gothic fairy tale world of twisted trees and eerie buildings and filmed using a monochrome palette enlivened only by Ichabod's dream sequences and vivid splatters of blood. Usually ending up all over poor Johnny. The cast is fantastic, a veritable who's who of fine character actors from Britain and the US. 'It's because we all look strange,' Michael Gambon explains in the 'making of' vignette. And of course no Tim Burton movie (except Ed Wood ) would be complete without a fantastic score from Danny Elfman.

My one gripe would be that for a picture set so clearly in 1799, some of the costumes are about a hundred years ahead of their time (just because it's nearly the 19th century doesn't mean people wore bustles. Duh!) but what the hell, this is after all, a fairy tale. Like Washington Irving's original tale (which in fact never enlightens us as to the true nature of the horseman, ghostly or otherwise), Sleepy Hollow doesn't take itself too seriously. Imbued with a sly but gleeful sense of humour, the film doffs its cap throughout to the horror films of old: the 1930s black and white classics made by Universal and the lurid tales of Hammer (only in Hammer's Technicolor world is blood that icky bright orange colour.) Johnny Depp based his portrayal of Ichabod on the style of the classic horror actors, and shades of his old buddy Vincent Price and Colin 'It's alive!' Clive as Dr Frankenstein are clear to be seen. (As are his cheekbones, which are to die for.

Sigh.) Creepy, funny, beautiful, clever and exciting, Sleepy Hollow is a mad gallop through the history of horror and the crazy imagination of Tim Burton. So come along for the ride. Sleepy Hollow Review 1999 | Movie Review | Contactmusic.com Sleepy Hollow Review By Rob Blackwelder Who better to revamp Washington Irving's classic spook tale of the Headless Horseman than Tim Burton, the modern maestro of movie macabre? A little tweaking here (a conspiracy plot), a little re-writing there (Ichabod Crane is now a nervous police detective instead of a nervous school teacher) and -- ta-da! -- it's "Sleepy Hollow," a sumptuously stylized, oddly traditional, darkly comical, and unmistakably Burton-esque take on this uniquely American fairy tale.

Taking place in 1799, this inventive reinterpretation of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" -- written by "Fight Club" scripter Andrew Kevin Walker and polished by "Shakespeare In Love" scribe Tom Stoppard -- features Johnny Depp as Ichabod Crane, an ungainly, outcast, New York City constable come to the upstate hamlet of Sleepy Hollow to investigate a spate of beheadings that local legend has pinned on the noggin-less ghost of mad a Revolutionary War mercenary. Meticulously analytical and with a penchant for dabbling in the then-embryonic science of forensics, Crane immediately dismisses any supernatural theories and appalls the locals by having the victims' bodies exhumed so he can perform amateur autopsies, using an array of bizarre tools he designed himself.

But the more he delves into the mystery, the more his logical evidence trail points to something not of this world, and before long he's face-to-face -- OK, bad choice of words -- with his headless nemesis, who gallops out of the night perched on a huge black steed and wielding a lethal blade with the acrobatic precision of an 18th Century Darth Maul (no coincidence since Maul actor Ray Park does the Horseman's stunts.) But while Depp's delightful talent for off-kilter characters lends his Ichabod Crane an appreciable and deliberately unbalanced blend of delicacy, skittish cowardice, determination and curiosity, as the plot marches on much of what's going on around him begins to unravel faster than Ichabod does.

After setting up an engaging intellectual angle with Crane's daring new methods of logic, Burton abandons the intelligent foundation of "Sleepy Hollow," allowing it to become a hard-to-follow, hocus-pocus whodunit, complete with a inheritance conspiracy, an evil local with power over the Horseman, and an I'll- keep- you- alive- while- I- explain- my- diabolical- plan, action movie climax (explosions and the whole nine yards). The film is also crippled by a terribly contrived romantic subplot involving a miscast Christina Ricci (it pains me to say that), who looks perfectly period but can't manage to wrap her mouth around the movie's formal dialogue or its highly mannered acting style. She falls for Ichabod, much to the chagrin of her beau, played by Casper Van Dien ( "Starship Troopers" ) -- doing his very best Billy Zane-in- "Titanic" imitation. Thankfully, he gets waxed by the Horseman after only three lines of dialogue.

Other players include Miranda Richardson as Ricci's more-than-meets-the-eye stepmother and a razor-toothed, wild-eyed Christopher Walken, who plays the Horseman in flashbacks from before he lost his head. On the production end of things, "Sleepy Hollow" is a fabulous, high-tech homage to the moody, old-fashioned horror flicks of the 1930s, bent to fit the Burton mold. The pale, moon-lit tones generated by a perma-dusk sky; rich but somber costumes (bad teeth, even!); craggy, foggy, sound stage forests of imposing, twisted, leafless trees -- it's all quite absorbing. I really tried to like "Sleepy Hollow," but the truth is, without Depp's appeal or Burton's sense of humor and wildly creative style to buoy it, this script would play like one of those over-produced, under-intelligent literature plunders that TV networks run during sweeps week.

Facts and Figures Movie Review - - FILM REVIEW; Headless Horseman With Quite a Head Count - NYTimes.com FILM REVIEW; Headless Horseman With Quite a Head Count By JANET MASLIN Published: November 19, 1999 The year is 1799 and ''the millennium is almost upon us,'' according to the newly dashing Ichabod Crane played by Johnny Depp in Tim Burton's enthusiastically bleak new movie. And speaking of dashing, when Ichabod gallops north from New York City, he rides up the west bank of the Hudson River although the village of Sleepy Hollow is on the east. But an ornate visual fantasy of Mr. Burton's can be expected to make its own rules, and ''Sleepy Hollow'' does that with macabre gusto. His idea of a beautiful day may be somebody else's nuclear winter, but Mr. Burton eagerly brings his visions of sugarplums to the screen.

So when it comes to appearances, this dark, shivery ''Sleepy Hollow'' manages to be as distinctively Burtonesque as ''Edward Scissorhands'' or ''Batman.'' Offering a serenely unrecognizable take on Washington Irving's story and its famously unlucky schoolteacher, the film brings its huge reserves of creativity to bear upon matters like the severing of heads. Quaint Dutch burghers of the Hudson Valley could have bowled ninepins throughout Rip Van Winkle's sleep-in with the supply of decapitated heads sent flying here, even if Mr. Burton handles such sequences with his own brand of wit. Shot 1: Sword approaches victim. Shot 2: Blood splashes Ichabod's glasses. Shot 3: Head rolls away. Shot 4: Body pitches forward. Pause for laugh. History will recognize the rich imagination and secret tenderness of Mr. Burton's best films. (From a purely technical standpoint, as in the award-ready cinematography of Emmanuel Lubezki, this grimly voluptuous ''Sleepy Hollow'' must be one of them.) But it will also raise the question of what we were smoking during this period of infatuation with grisliness on screen.

It is not unreasonable to admire Mr. Burton immensely without wanting to peer at the exposed brain stems of his characters, but ''Sleepy Hollow'' leaves no choice. As written by Andrew Kevin Walker, who took off Gwyneth Paltrow's head in ''Seven'' and apparently considered that small potatoes, ''Sleepy Hollow'' turns the tale of the Headless Horseman into the pre-tabloid story of a rampaging serial killer. There are reasons to be troubled by this, and they aren't about squeamishness. Mr. Walker's credits also include ''Fight Club,'' a genuinely daring effort to make sense of the violent impulses of buttoned-down young men, and to plumb those dangers found at the nexus of popular culture and political fanaticism. That, at least, had the hallmarks of something different, and it involved a much lower body count than the one racked up by the Headless Horseman. But ''Sleepy Hollow,'' in the guise of an exotic fable and horror-film homage, offers little such ballast. For all its visual cleverness, it's much more conventionally conceived than Mr. Burton's admirers would expect.

Even birds nesting in one of the film's vast, wintry indoor sets found themselves trying to get away, moving into the only blossom-filled backdrop that ''Sleepy Hollow'' uses (for brief fantasy scenes). But the bulk of the film unfolds in a forbidding, fairy-tale village and forest that are as ambitious as the Gotham City of ''Batman.'' It is here that Ichabod, who now has a faintly English accent and Mr. Depp's playful charisma, is sent to solve a series of murders and to find that everyone in Sleepy Hollow looks mildly suspect. It is also here that he learns of the vengeful headless Hessian (Christopher Walken in redundant fright makeup) who is the town's main tourist attraction. Using a color palette more often associated with stories of the gulag, ''Sleepy Hollow'' creates a landscape so daunting that even a large tree bleeds. At moments like the one revealing the tree's bloody secret, and in a couple of incidents involving witchcraft, Mr. Burton's film delivers a scare or two, but most of it is too tongue in cheek for that.

As this film's Ichabod conducts a Holmesian murder investigation and even unearths a village conspiracy, he has much better luck with Katrina Van Tassel than any traditional Ichabod ever did. Katrina is played photogenically by Christina Ricci, who gets through the film gamely while remaining very much a sardonic creature of her own time. An impressive cast shows off Colleen Atwood's sumptuous costumes and delivers dialogue, some apparently worked on by Tom Stoppard, sometimes graced with a clever edge. Miranda Richardson swishes dangerously through the proceedings as Katrina's obviously wicked stepmother, while the town elders include Michael Gough, Michael Gambon and Jeffrey Jones. The horror patriarch Christopher Lee is here, as well he ought to be. And Marc Pickering plays the teenage sidekick whom Ichabod cautions, as he might the audience, with ''I hope you have a strong stomach.'' Among the many scenes of cheeky mayhem, one finds a little boy cowering beneath floorboards while the Horseman harvests the heads of his parents. In case you were thinking of taking the children. ''Sleepy Hollow'' is rated R (Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian).

It includes fanciful gore and violence, brief sexual situations and a high head count.

Ratner’s last two films behind the camera — 2014 action movie “Hercules” starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and 2011 comedy “Tower Heist” starring Ben Stiller — were mediocre performers at the box office, grossing $244 million and $152 million worldwide, respectively, on reported production budgets of $100 million and $75 million, not counting marketing costs. Depp is coming off his own share of box office misfires, which include “Mortdecai,” “Transcendence” and “The Lone Ranger.” He next stars in Disney’s big-budget sequel “Alice Through the Looking Glass” and Kevin Smith ‘s “Yoga Hosers,” both of which have received largely negative reviews.

Previous Slide View All Critic Reviews (126) Audience Reviews for Sleepy Hollow Burton creates the best homage to the Universal monster films of the late 30's, early 40's that I've ever seen in this steroid-injected take on the old Washington Irving tale of a horse-riding phantom of doom. Not everything goes smoothly. Johnny Depp has to "do" scared wimpy guy a bit too much, making other actors have to react disgustedly too much as well. It gets old after the third or fourth time. Walken's ghost growls sometimes too long ("stop growling and do something, f'cryingoutloud!" I'd think). And Ricci ...

was she only a stand-in for Winona Ryder? Whatever, despite these niggling concerns, the work succeeds in eliciting the romance those films of old simmered in, the mood and nuance. I loved it. Kevin M. Williams Super Reviewer A handsomely shot and decorated film from the always gothic Tim Burton about the legend of Sleepy Hollow and the headless horseman (the terrifically casted Christopher Walken), and how Ichabod Crane (Johnny Depp) ventures to the mythical town of Sleepy Hollow to investigate some suspicious murders done by the villain. While the acting pretty much sucks, and Depp is still doing his "hands acting" thing way too much, the dark nature and atmosphere that permeates the film is unmistakable. Burton definitely has a feel for this story, as well as how to capture the look of it from a cinematography standpoint, it is just too bad the acting is so bad. Which more or less pushes this film into "campy" territory far too often. So, it's a toss-up. I really liked certain parts of it but then some aspects were so terrible you can not help but laugh.

So, not the worst movie I have ever seen, but far from the best. Although I will admit I enjoyed it even when it gets utterly ridiculous. Dan Schultz Super Reviewer New York City constable Ichabod Crane, despairing at his police force's archaic methods of investigation seeks to prove himself on a murder case in Sleepy Hollow where several of its citizens have been found decapitated. The American literary classic gets the Burton treatment in this lavish re-imagining of the familiar tale of the headless horseman. Johnny Depp brings his usual brand of quirky charm to the part of the olde worlde CSI wannabe whose faith in science and reason is tested by coming face to face with a ghoulish spectre; in fact this part can be seen as the prototype of the slightly inept, not entirely courageous pirate we all know and love. This film unites all the elements that make me love Tim Burton's work and is a kind of gothic fantasy homage to Hammmer horror with the perfect blend of gore, humour and swashbuckling tied up in an ingenious whodunnit plot.

Visually it ranks amongst Burton's best, with fantastic sets, beautiful period design and superb effects that is bolstered by an outstanding ensemble cast that breathe life into this off beat historical world that is tinged with the supernatural. Scary, exciting and fun, I would have to say that for my money this is the best of Burton's films. xGary Xx Sleepy Hollow Sleepy Hollow Trailer GENERAL INFORMATION Washington Irving's tale of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman gets a few new twists in a screen adaptation directed by Tim Burton. In this version, Ichabod (Johnny Depp) is a New York City detective whose unorthodox techniques and penchant for gadgets make him unpopular with is colleagues. He is sent to the remote town of Sleepy Hollow to investigate a series of bizarre murders, in which a number of people have been found dead in the woods with their heads cut off.

Gal) Quotes from Johnny Depp: "I always thought Roddy [McDowall] had such an interesting gift, just great presence, great delivery.

He was an interesting actor, one of those guys who was very individual. Angela Lansbury was a great inspiration. I loved how she was in Death on The Nile. I found her fascinating. These two were the most inspirational characters. Maybe a little bit of Basil Rathbone, but a lot more girlie." --Johnny Depp The Guardian December 17, 1999 "Tim and I thought our aim was to make him [Ichabod] much closer to the book, and even go a little further. I've tried to make him prissy, you know, kind of prissy, almost like a nervous pre-teen girl. He's very squeamish when it comes to seeing a corpse, or when he sees a bug he's kind of ... euuhhh, it freaks him out." --Johnny Depp The Guardian December 17, 1999 "My initial idea was to go with some prosthetics, you know, and do a sort of snipe nose of Ichabod Crane, the legendary Ichabod Crane. And the big ears and the long hands and arms and stuff...

Tim, in fact, was very smart in thinking that we didn't need it, you know, in that there were other ways. And I think that ultimately he was right to show an Ichabod Crane, who on the surface is kind of stoic and likes to think of himself as a sort of manly man, but in fact, inside he's very fragile, sensitive, flawed.... uh, Ichabod is a bit, uh, I thought of him as almost like a prepubescent young girl in a way. He's crumbling, you know, he's a wreck." --Johnny Depp Sleepy Hollow DVD, Special features, Cast and Crew Interviews "There is one contraption that I fell in love with, which was in the scene, the court room scene with Christopher Lee. In that scene, there's a guy strapped in this horrible device with claws around him. And, uh, I kept that.

I got that." --Johnny Depp Sleepy Hollow DVD, Special features, Cast and Crew Interviews "I always thought of Ichabod as a very delicate, fragile person who was maybe a little too in touch with his feminine side, like a frightened little girl." --Johnny Depp Entertainment Weekly November 19, 1999 "Yeah, Ichabod's a freak. He's very much an outsider. He's definitely got his problems, his weird ticks, stuff like that." --Johnny Depp Empire Magazine January 2000 "I love the story. I've been familiar with it since I was a little kid - it's just one of those great American stories. And I think the character is very interesting. It's a challenge to play someone who fills the role of the leading man, but to not play him as a standard hero." --Johnny Depp Empire Magazine January 2000 "But certainly one of the first things that popped into my head was that, 'My God, I've known [Christina Ricci] since she was nine years old and we're going to be kissing and stuff!' That was a little odd at first.

But, you know, we're both pretty calm, we're not walking bags of neurosis - or if we are, we don't bring our neuroses to work with us." --Johnny Depp Empire Magazine January 2000 "[The horse and I] have a kind of edgy relationship. One day she can be fine and the next she can be a little... peculiar. Yeah, and the horse farts constantly. I take it as her statement about movies in general.
