My two hours with Johnny

Well, it all went well. Johnny was charming as usual. I liked the film, I like Tim Burton, I think he's a genius. How can he take the same actors over and over again (Johnny and Helena Bonham Carter, his wife) and still manage to create something new everytime?!?! When you watch the time, you don't think "Oh! it reminds me of Helena's role in Big Fish" or "oh! Johnny looks like in Edward and the Scissors hands"... not at all. It's all new. And it's good.

Another tour de force from Tim Burton: take a dark story of a serial killer/murderer in something that could be compared to Jack the Ripper, you know, in dark and gloomy London... and make it a musical! I was a bit curious about how it would turn out and on the edge of being sceptical I must reckon but it works! I just works.

The only minus about the film is the end. First, it's a bit long... you start to feel like you're reaching the end so you'd like the tempo to speed up a bit but it doesn't. And the end itself is... well it's good but some questions remained unanswered...

All in all, a great film, go and see it!

PS: A big bonus is Sacha Baron Cohen, he's brilliant! I've seen Ali G and like it, never seen anything with Borat 'cause I just hate the character and don't find it funny but here... Sacha is BRILLIANT!
