Do not buy toothpaste from this guy

Its a musical.

That’s what our friends say when we asked how was Sweeney Todd.

As if that could explain everything this movie has to offer. First of all, I love Tim Burton. Second and thrid, I love Johnny Depp and I love those two together. Fourth and most importantly, Helena Bonham Carter. 

I must admit I aspire to be like her.. I’ve seen her as the crazed faker in Fight Club, Bellatrix Lestrage in Harry Potter, and uh, the witch in Big Fish. Tim Burton and Helena does great together, I looked it up, they are domestic partners, that explains everything big time.

Okay as for the movie, the singing was okay, I feel that Johnny Depp’s part tend to get dull, where Helena Bonham Carter’s exciting and playful, but that’s maybe to put things into character. I love how all the story goes steady and slow in the beginning and in the last 15 minutes it feels like Tim Burton wants to wrap things up as quickly as possible. So the plot becomes something like, “Oh shit, WHAT?”

So thats what I’m going to do, wrap it up quickly.
