31 Posts Of Halloween: Corpse Bride

Corpse Bride is a 2005 stop motion animation Tim Burton horrorish film.

Corpse Bride is about a young man named Victor (Johnny Depp), as he is set to get married, yet he is unsure if he really wants to or not to this particular gal. So, as one would do, he takes a stroll through the local forest and puts a ring on the finger of a corpse which ends up reanimating it and bring the Corpse Bride (Helena Bonham Carter) to life. Victor now finds himself in a marriage proposal which he originally did not think he would be in.
So, I honestly didn't watch this movie when I was a kid, but I saw it a few years ago when I was in my teens. I actually enjoyed this movie, and I like seeing it when it's on tv.
I don't think it's a surprise to anyone to see Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, and Tim Burton working together on a project, because it's not like they've every done that before!
This is a fun little film, which if you have kids, it would be a good one to watch with them this time of the year.
Corpse Bride was a real surprise to me by how much enjoyment I got out of this film. I watch it when I can, and I hope to show it to my kids some day.

final score: 3.7/5

Coda Movie Review

Coda Movie Review This Deserved Best Picture So, I just got back from seeing Coda, and it was amazing! This was the second attempt to see this film as the first time, someone booked the entire theater for a private screening. I'm going to take from a summary from IMDB to summarize the plot: " As a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults) Ruby is the only hearing person in her deaf family. When the family's fishing business is threatened, Ruby finds herself torn between pursuing her passion at Berklee College of Music and her fear of abandoning her parents." The acting was phenomenal, the cinematography was beautiful, and the story was human. The way this film is crafted is nothing short but excellent. I will not that not everything is 100% accurate, but for narrative reasons, I understand the choices they made. The actors have amazing chemistry together. Everything feels natural between them and they all bring their characters to life. No per...
