MCT:August 27, 2008This is a movie for everyone and anyone. I personally love Johnny Depp but in this movie I didn't care that it was Johnny Depp until it was over. Johnny's emotions and expressions just drag you into the plot you don't see Johnny you see Edward and his Scissorhands. You see a confused man and forget that this is a movie. Normally you see actors and actresses as wow look how good he looks in this movie but I didn't see Johnny Depp looking confused and innocent I saw Edward, and it takes a special kind of actor to do that to any role.
Tim Burtun is a special kind of director and this movie is a great example because of it's color. Burtun uses Darks and Pales. Edward is the perfect example. His pale skin dark hair and dark castle. But then the street is bright pinks, greens, blues, yellows, purples, and oranges. The people and everything created on the street by edward are all bright and peculiar. Tim Burtun gives everything a certian charm, either flamboyant (kinda like the Joker in his Batman) and the Dark and dead look (like in Sweeney Todd, Sleepy Hollow, Corpse Bride, and A Nightmare Before Christmas).
Winona Ryder was a really beautiful and great actress in edward scissorhands. She was the type of person that makes not only the character but you also fall in love with her and imagine her as the most beautfiul person around. She even made Depp fall in love with her and they dated for three years after the movie was done shotting.
Dianne Wiest did a beautiful job as the mother and the Avon Lady. one of my favorite lines from the posters is---
"Edward was locked in his castle where he couldn't hurt anyone and no one could hurt him.... until the avon lady called." And Peg, the mother, was so sweet and peppy, and just as innocent as Edward, and that shown through brightly with the acting of Dianne Weist who is a brillant actress.
The whole cast did a brillant job but Johnny depp, Winona Ryder, and Dianne Wiest did the most outstanding jobs and most perfect memorable jobs in the world. I couldn't stop watching this movie a million times over and over and crying everytime I saw it. I CRYED IT WAS SO AMAZING. Please don't see this movie for me, but for the people who spent months making this masterpiece, and for Johnny Depp who made his reputation with Burtun with this movie. -

"You see, before he came down here, it never snowed. And afterwards, it did. If he weren't up there now... I don't think it would be snowing. Sometimes you can still catch me dancing in it."

Stupenda favola gotica, con un protagonista che ha dell'incredibile. Ottime musiche e grande atmosfera.

I was blown away by this beautiful quirky story about the man with the big scary scissorhands who wants nothing but to fit in, to have friends and loved ones. Depp is giving what I think is his best performance to date, and the combination Tim Burton, Jhonny Depp och that guy who does the music will never ever get old. Together they create worlds, filled with imaginations, wonders and emotion. I am now looking forward to experience their other work.

MCT:August 21, 2008Classic Horror movie star Vincent Price (House on Haunted Hill) appeared in his last big-screen role as Edward's creator. This movie is visonary director Tim Burton's masterpiece, a great gothic fairy tale of a movie. One of Johnny Dept's best roles.

This is another Tim Burton masterpiece. It is extremely sad, and dark, but it still manages to be sweet.

"Kim: Hold me.
Edward: I can't."
A Masterpiece....
I watched it last night on TV.
Edward Scissorhands is nothing shorter than Tim Burton's masterpiece. He is a visual genius who can create unique images and weave a great story into all of it.Like Tim Burton's other films, this is a visual treat to look at. Every shot is like magic, the way everything looks is fantastic. Every moment in this film is great, and many of the moments are very moving.A hauntingly poetic, dark fairy tale filled with fantastic humor, amazing performances and possibly the most heartbreaking romance of all time. Everything about this film is perfect. Johnny Depp plays arguably his most bizarre and surreal character, which is a lot for him, and he portrays it perfectly. For his most bizarre character, Depp is at his most reserved. The story is ultimately one of a man who wants nothing more than to be accepted and belong in this happy, seemingly Utopian suburbia.
The musical score by Danny Elfman is absolutely spellbinding.It completely fits with the classic feel of the neighborhood and the mystery of Edward.
The following will reveal the story
A kind inventor is almost finished piecing together his latest creation when fate prevents him from completing his most important project. Edward may seem dangerous, with scissors instead of hands, but when a compassionate Avon lady comes calling, it's clear that things are going to be changing for Edward who has been alone in the large empty mansion. What they both don't realize is that the most important change of all won't be found in Edward but in the residents of the sleep suburbs he will be calling home, and a young teenage girl who's eyes will be opened.
The finale is just as heartbreaking. Kim is a very old woman, almost on her death bed, and after years of not visiting Edward in his castle on top of the hill she realizes that it is too late to do so. Her heart crumbles before us as she makes the painful decision to let Edward remember her as the adorable and beautiful young woman she was; not the old lady she has become. Probably the most painful film I've ever seen, yet it still gives me a sense of pure joy when I watched it.

When I first saw the cover of this and everything..I thought it was going to be some stuiped sci-fi crap. But it wasn't. (Thank god.) It was actually pretty good. :)

Loved it. Don't roll your eyes at me like that!! Johnny Depp was being taken under Hollywood's wing. He was young and new. LEVE HIM ALONE, It was a good film.
