Johnny Depp stars in a Bloody Musical!

Date of Review:  Jan 15, 2008
The Bottom Line: It's a bloody musical with Johnny Depp!
Review: Sweeney Todd is probably one of the bloodiest musicals that has ever been staged on Broadway. The murder count makes even the standard opera plot pale in comparison.

Leave it to Tim Burton with his wife Helena Carter Bonham and good friend...

Shave and a haircut -- two slits!

Date of Review:  Dec 16, 2007
The Bottom Line: Full-bodied moviemaking, and a terrific musical
Review: I came to Sweeney Todd with a clean slate, as it were. I'd never seen any of the previous stage or screen versions, and I'm generally adverse to the archly ironic style of Broadway composer Stephen Sondheim.

All of that said, I was...

Johnny Depp is somehow sexier when he acts creepy!

Date of Review:  May 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: If this kind of movie isn't your style, try something new! You'll definitely get something out of it. Whether it be the songs, acting, or cinematography. See it!
Review: Okay, first I must say that I'm one of those "Johnny Depp can do no wrong" people. And, as my title states, I'm especially a fan of his physical appearance. His darkest roles are most appealing to me, and all of those include a collaboration with...

Oh No Johnny What happened ?

Date of Review:  May 15, 2008
The Bottom Line: I suffered through it just to see if it would improve. I wouldn't recommend it unless there is nothing better to watch.
Review: First of all let me say I am a huge fan of Johnny Depp. I have probably seen every movie he has ever made, but in my opinion this was the worst. Not on Johnny's part. As usual he was in character and I found out he can sing, but the story line was...

Date of Review:  May 20, 2008
Review: I didnt see the original so I went to see this in the theater not knowing what it was. I was impressed with the story, Johnny Depp was superb in this movie. The storyline was interesting. And the fact that it was a musical made it even better.The...

Demon barber

Date of Review:  May 28, 2008
The Bottom Line: Don't expect a lot of action from this movie - it's a MUSICAL and a very well done one.
Review: I saw Sweeney Todd 4 times in the theater and now own the dvd. Tim Burton and Johnny Depp did a great job turning the Broadway play into an onscreen movie. A lot of people worry about it being a gruesome movie and it can be if you don't see that all...

You reap what you sew

Date of Review:  Jun 11, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is not a pick me up type of movie and will surely have you thinking 'is it over yet'?
Review: I was disappointed and thought this movie could have been better. Johnny Depp and the main female actress did a fabulous job on making you believe the distorted mind-set in which they lived. The coloring and general background all played a part in...

Johnny Depp as Sweeney Todd.

Date of Review:  Apr 28, 2008
The Bottom Line: "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street" is awesome.
Review: When I saw the previews on television, I really couldn't wait for "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street", to come out. I have never heard Johnny Depp sing before... well I have but that was when he played Jack Sparrow and he was supposed...

How about a shave?

Date of Review:  Apr 7, 2008
The Bottom Line: Sondheim's musical masterpiece is transformed to become Tim Burton's masterpiece! A fantastic tragedy musical with some beautiful songs from a talented cast.
Review: NOTE: This review is for the 2-Disk Special Edition DVD of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.

I first saw Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street in December 2007 when it was in theaters. I didn't know what to expect,...

The best musical of all time!

Date of Review:  Mar 28, 2008
The Bottom Line: Awesome I loved every second of it and guarantee that you will too
Review: Sweeny Todd was in my opinion one of the greatest musical productions of all time. It was perfect. Johnny Depp could not have played a better part. He is an awesome actor. This particular movie/musical was not only the greatest of all time it was a...
