Big Fish
Starring: Ewan McGregor Directed by: Tim Burton Rated PG-13 Synopsis: Edward Bloom liked to tell tales. His son Will never liked the stories his father told because they always seemed like total fiction. Or are they? My Thoughts: Right off the bat I hated this movie...I am not a big fan of Tim Burton, I never have been, and never will be. But this movie wasn't his "normal" off the wall creepy comedy, this movie told a great story and was acted spectacularly. Here's how it breaks down: SCORECARD: Acting: McGregor did a great job as the young Edward Bloom, the character was way out there. Danny DeVito as the circus ringleader was very funny, and did a great job. (1) Direction: The direction of this movie was shaky at times, it still was pretty good, and went right were it should have. (1/2) Story: This was a very intriguing story, it was a little slow, but still was a story worth telling. The ending was the best part. (1) Expectations: Like I said earlier, I had no expectations for this movie, it was a Tim Burton film, so I thought I was going to hate it, surprisingly I didn't. (1) Boring?: Yeah, a few parts of this movie drag some, but it isn't overly boring, the point of this whole movie is to tell a story, and that can get very boring, but it wasn't "Roll your eyes back in your head" boring. (1/2) Final Score: 4 out of 5 Final Thoughts: I was thinking that not too many people have heard of this movie, but when I looked to see how much this movie made in theaters I was shocked...this movie actually did quite well bringing in almost $66 million. So I guess this movie isn't as underrated as I thought it was.
