Tim Burton's Frankenweenie


Movie Synopsis:
After unexpectedly losing his beloved dog Sparky, young Victor harnesses the power of science to bring his best friend back to life -- with just a few minor adjustments. He tries to hide his home-sewn creation, but when Sparky gets out, Victor's fellow students, teachers and the entire town all learn that getting a new "leash on life" can be monstrous.

 My Review:
 So, I am not one to be on the Tim Burton train with films such as Corpse Bride, Willy Wonka, Alice in Wonderland or Dark Shadows because I feel he went downhill after his 2003 film Big Fish. He shouldve never brought back Johnny Depp after Edward Scissorhands! HOWEVER! Tim Burton's newest film FRANKENWEENIE in my opinion is brilliant! He seems to be back to his old Burton ways! This Original idea, the classic black and white, creepy, horrific aesthics and having Danny Elfman do the music composition gives Burton his edge back to the Horror director he started out as. The fact that this film was in Stop Motion Animation I thought was brilliant as well! I highly reccomend the film and give it a 9/10 and not a 10 because I feel character development could have been better. Go see it!
