"For me, this is one of my "comfort movies". I've seen it a million times, and it just doesn't get old. The cinematography is first-class and Johnny Depp, as usual, is a hoot. I love how it expertly traverses the line between campy and oddly scary. I listened to Tim Burton's commentary track this time around and he seems like a great, fun director with a quick, dry wit. If you haven't seen it yet, do yourself a favor and sit yourself down in front of your television set for a few hours while this plays. "

"I'm going to tell you right at the start: Fantastic 4 wins this battle.Why? well, sit back and I will explain it to you.My biggest mistake was having expectations. I love Sam Raimi and have been a fan of his since I first saw Army of Darkness (aka Bruce Campbell Vs. The Army Of Darkness, a far better title if you ask me). I enjoyed his frenetic camera moves and the use of alternate angles to create a uncomfortable, stalking feeling. The bike mounted camera chases of all the Evil Dead movies is hard to top in my book. Spiderman 1 was the most powerful of the series story wise it had Spiderman's origin as well as the death of his uncle. The scenes where he is learning to use his new powers easily captures the imagination with many of the movies viewers. In my opinion, looking at Spiderman 1 you can tell it is well-made and that the director knew his stuff but, it doesn't have very many of Raimi's trademarks, you know, the things that make a Sam Raimi movi a Sam ...

"Tim Burton seems to be infatuated with cinematic violence. So a story that centers around decapitation seems to be right up his alley. Johnny Depp plays Ichabod Crane as a strong central figure who seems to be the only one with any idea of why some citizens of Sleepy Hollow are losing their heads, literally and figuratively. Ultimately, the central reason for these murders isn't too surprising, but it is interesting to watch Crane (and his wacky medical contraptions) systematically solve the town's problem. There is a comic aspect to the gratuitous head-slicing and all its bloody glory. Watching this movie, one can't help getting the feeling that Burton revels in creating these grisly killings. With all the popping eyes and pooling blood, Burton effectively creates an atmosphere of uncertainty and spookiness that permeates the film's more tender moments.(Oh, and, by the way, the Christopher Walken/Ray Park tandem as the Headless Horseman is a spectacle in it's o ...
