Ok, someone update!

Movie Review: Sweeney Todd

Rating: R

Plot: The daemon barber of fleet street seeks revenge in this Broadway thriller. After being sent away for 15 years under false pretenses, Benjamin Barker is back and ready to wreak havoc on the man who destroyed his family, and in turn his life. Sweeney Todd a.k.a Benjamin Barker returns to London after being sent away by Judge Turpin with the help of a sailor, Anthony Hope. He opens a barber shop above Mrs. Lovett's Meat Pie Shop where she sells "the worst pies in London." With the help of Mrs. Lovett, Todd tries to rid of all the people who have ever done him wrong and hopes to be reunited with his daughter, Joanna, who is now Judge Turpin's ward.

Cast: Johnny Depp as Sweeney, Helena Bonham Carter (Mrs. Lovett), Alan Rickman (Judge Turpin) Timothy Spall (Beadle Bamford),Jamie Cambell Bower (Anthony Hope) and many more. Sasha Baron Cohen (of the infamous Borat) makes an appearance as Signor Adolfo Pirelli.

Warning: Blood! Gore! Blood! Gore! BLOOD! During the opening credits we see Blood dripping down the London sewage system and razor blades. This is only a slight warning of what's to come. Every slit throat (I'd guesstimate around 15 or 20) is shown in full detail, complete with sound affects and torrents of blood. Perhaps a bit more mild in comparison, each body is baked into pies (which add a remarkable boost to buisness)

Acting: A+! No wonder this film has been nominated for 4 Golden Globes. Johhny Depp is OUTSTANDING as Sweeney. And to answer the question i'm sure is pressing upon everyone; yes. The man can sing. As can Bonham Carter. The woman is equally as stunning as Depp, acting, singing, and otherwise.

Directing: Well, Tim Burton has done it again. I was swept away into the dismal sreets of Dickensian London. Each shot is dreary and downcast, yet artfully done. It fits the mood of the story, and Burton's famous style. Costumes and makeup were fantastic, especially when it came to Sweeney and Lovett. Special affects and MUSIC were equally well done. Eye and ear candy!

My Review Of Swenny Todd

Swenny Todd-

I was a pretty wicked movie i must say, Although Johney Depp isnt that great of a natural singer he pulled it off pretty well

The movie was EXSTREMLY violent and gorry but i feel it could have been tonned down a little

The Actor who plays Tobby WAS SOOOOOOO GOOD AMAZING

And well Joanna was very good as well!

Oh My Gosh...

Dude, guess what I just learned?

Kristen Chenoweth is a Christian!  

I never knew that...

that's so cool!!!

So that's just my 'whoa' moment of the day.

please comment!

National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets

I thought it was really good.  The first movie had more puzzling I think, and the second more action, but both had a fairly good balance.  If there was one thing I didn't catch, it was how finding the *blank* proved his grandfather innocent.  But I guess it's because it shows that that's what the person was after when they had him uncode the cipher or whatever...well yeah.  So it was a good movie!  If you're going to see it, either wait until it comes out on DVD or go in the morning.  it's cheaper.  :)
