wat's the story abt though the poster looks interesting
though
Johnny Depp plays a barber framed by this judge (Alan Rickman)
who lusts after his wife. 15 years later, he returns and plots his
revenge while putting up at a pie maker's factory. Mini subplot
includes the romance and rescue of his teenage daughter who sings
and sews by some window.
Predictable misfortune, mayhem and murder ensues.
Not my cup of tea, I think Tim Burton needs some time off to
work his magic again. Edward Scissorhands and Big Fish were his
best works, really liked Beetlejuice too. Sweeney Todd is just 2
hours worth of unbearable singing and ketchup overdose. Not funny
and not scary but the sets were quite pretty.
He had a great cast though but the story and direction wasn't
enough to bring out the best in Johnny Depp and Alan Rickman. Maybe
the production/costume design or art direction departments are up
against those in Elizabeth: Golden Age for the Oscars.
