Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
(Directed by Tim Burton. Starring Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Alan Rickman, Sasha Baron Cohen, etc.)
Quick review: I knew it was going to be “dark,” but… ho… ly… crap.
3½ stars
Depp, as always, impresses.
This is the sort of movie that, in a cultural literacy sense, everyone probably ought to be familiar with, to some degree, but I don’t think I’m going to be watching it again. Ever. I’m not one for a lot of blood and gore on screen.
