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

The Batman Movie Review

The Batman Movie Review A Solid Noir Film I went and saw The Batman the other day with one of my buddies and I must say, we really enjoyed it. Granted I don't think this movie is for everyone. The Batman follows Batman (Robert Pattinson) during his second year of crime fighting. When the mayor of Gotham is killed by The Riddler (Paul Dano), it is up to Batman with the help of James Gordon (Jeffery Wright), and Selina Kyle (Zoë Kravitz) to stop him. From a visual point of view, The Batman is gorgeous. Every frame is a painting. The acting is solid, the plot is solid. The musical score is outstanding. I personally loved the film, but there are some things in it that could off-set some Batman fans. I typically get into the acting first, but like you've probably already heard many reviewers say before, the city is a character in this film. Gotham feels real, grounded, and certainly not a place you'd want to visit. Corruption and crime run rampant at every level of society. The ...
