Frankenweenie - A Review

1.5 Stars - urgh

This film is bad, it isn't funny, it isn't scary, it has no real emotional depth and to be honest I just found it to be unpleasant. Maybe it's the dark and dirty visuals, maybe it's the sunken dead eyes, expressionless faces and disturbingly long arms that are on all the characters, maybe it's that the plot is really weak and padded as hell despite the film only being 97 minutes long, or maybe, just maybe it's the racist stereotype Japanese kid. To be honest though, there is one major thing that makes this film so annoying, Tim Burton.

Tim Burton hasn't made a good film since Sweeney Todd in 2007, that's 5 years he's been making this level of garbage. When he started his gothic designs were new and interesting, now they're tired and old, he needs to try something new, something less Tim Burton, prove he still has some creativity left in him. At least this one didn't have Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter I guess...

Look into her eyes, see the wasted 97 minutes of your life...

In short, don't watch this, don't let Tim Burton make all this money....
