Our Opinions
We liked this film, because all the characters had an important part in the story. We didn’t find it boring, as the various suspense didn’t slow the film down but made it more compelling. We also appreciated their ability to make a movie out of a book in an a respectiful way.
We didn’t like the fact that the film was a bit trivial at times, also due to the lack of a plot twist. Another negative side of this film is the slowness of the story towards the end, in fact it is defined as one of the most listless films of Tim Burton.
