Hmmm.... August 25, 2008

Ok, like me you're probably not one to buy many musicals but you digg Burton and Depp. What to do?
Well, here's my take... in simple terms;
It looks great.
The songs vary from dull to quite amusing. Not that catchy or classic but the odd one is amusing.
The story line is OK, fairly basic.
The actors perform well and the leads are charismatic.
Conclusion? Meh... you know, it's OK. That about sums it up. There are better and worse places to spend your money! Sorry to be tepid about the whole affair but that's how I feel. If you must, buy it but you won't be missing much if you don't!
Not a stunning blu-ray either.
 It really is a musical May 23, 2008

I missed it at the cinema and just gambled on that fact that it's a Tim Burton film before buying this.
I knew it had musical content and would have been happy to handle the odd tune here and there but it's 90-95% music, which I found too hard to handle. I haven't even managed to make it to the end.
To have a magical cast like this and make them sing instead of act is just plain criminal, I'm sorry. I'm gutted.
Gory, pretentious and an awful grainy picture June 2, 2008

This is one of those idiotic 'star vehicles', where gushing critics fawn like crazy because luminaries like Tim Burton and Johnny Depp are involved, while the rest of us look on bemused, wondering what the hell it is that we're missing.
Set aside the droning music and the ridiculous over-the-top throat-cutting and bodies crunching head-first on to concrete, and what have you got? A lame and predictable story with no real substance, and a feeling at the end of... what exactly? Uplifted? Tearful? Repulsed?
But by far the worst thing about this is the Blu-Ray print. Tim Burton's 'hand of darkness' renders big sections of this unwatchable - the shadows are all grainy and scractchy, and on several scenes it was like trying to watch what was happening through a net curtain, it really was that bad. I have seen much better quality DVDs on a bog-standard DVD player... why have I spent thousands on Blu-ray if this is the best it can offer?
 It is definately a musical June 10, 2008

I don't know, I saw Johnny Depp was in it, sweeney todd story & that's where I placed it on pre-order for rental, should of looked into it more but it is song after wide mouthed londoner song, terrible, ok if you like that sort of thing but god is it annoying to watch & more to listen to.
If only they had dropped the singing it may of been a decent movie & at least watchable.
Not going to watch anymore, had enough of that, can't bear another bit of it, glad I didn't buy it. What a let down.
Absolute trash. July 10, 2008

I failed to see anything good about this film. The music was aweful, the scenes of violence repetative and the story pointless. Absolute garbage.
