Odd like only Tim Burton can do. And that's why it's so good. The colors are great in this movie. Edward's black white and gray character and home compared to the colorful Suburbia is great. Winona Ryder is always looking good. The ending bummed me out, but I guess it was the best way to end it.

Depp deserves an Oscar.

You know what Burton? I don't mind your style. I don't find it particularly entertaining but you did a damn fine job with this one. You too Depp.

I love this film. Depp, Burton, Diane Weiss, Alan Arkin, this film never puts a foot wrong for me. It's something like a desert though, it does lack a certain substance and leaves you feeling like you should have had something more substantial but then again it's only a fairytale.

I felt like this movie was trying kinda hard to be "magical" -- especially the score. It isn't really very magical, it's just cute and entertaining. Apart from the sporadic weirdness, this could easily have been a Spielberg film. Depp is great, as always, and the story is a nice "modern fairy-tale". Still, nothing about it is all that exciting to me.

-5 for the sad ending, but it was necessary i suppose

dreamy depp will do ya

A Fairy Tale from one of the most creative directors of our times -if not all times- that blends mystery, friendship, love, family relations and hair-cutting techniques so well that you get carried away like the little girl as the old woman tells the story, and want for more when it is over. One of Burton's best..

Depp can play anyone.

It was fun and a good commentary on suburban life, but it was just lacking that extra something that Burton usually brings.

Depp's good, Burton's flair is there, and Price is a joy in a small role, but the ending disappoints. Still, as always with Burton, it's about the idea and the style, and he comes through with it here.
