by overrated i just meant the general hype surrounding it. a bunch of
places actually gave it really good reviews (like time and newsweek). it
was promoted so much i was kind of disappointed that tim burton sunk into
some horror cliches. the exploding windmill didnt exactly do it for me i
guess.
but i mean, yeah, i really liked some things in it. i thought johnny depp
was really funny and the whole movie had that interesting tongue in cheek
aspect to it which worked really well. the script was pretty bad in a lot
of places, and other than depp and christopher walken i thought the acting
was not all that amazing, esp. considering the really good cast.
christina ricci wasnt all that good either.
