Negative Positive
Title: Burton's Best and one of Depp's best.
Review: There are few musicals that I actually life enough to buy and having already owned the dvd special edition I still had to buy this HD version. It's worth it. The tale of Sweeney Todd is such an odd story, and the fact that it's a musical makes it all the more entertaining, disturbing and strangely horrific. The cast doesn't sing that well, but the overall effect of the film is quite superb. It's a tale of corruption, betrayal and ultimate blindly maniacal revenge. One monster of a man, turns an innocent man into and even more brutal destructive force renaming himself Sweeney Todd.If you don't like musicals at all avoid this, but if you like horror you might override that notion and find other aspects to enjoy on a darker sadistically cynical level.
