college Stephen Sondheim's work, I like it very much. And the stage version of Sweeney Todd's musical, I saw it in Hong Kong a few years ago, it was a performance by a local foreign troupe. The songs are all very good. Last year I learned about Tim Burton When I found Johnny Depp to make this film, I was very excited and looking forward to it.
And the original soundtrack was the first time I went to buy it without seeing the movie. Many netizens informed me that I bought an OST at HMV to get a movie ticket, so I bought a CD first. I listened to the movie several times and then went to watch the movie, which made me more immersed.
When I entered the theater, when I watched "Sweeney Todd", the feeling of waiting for my breath was the same as when I watched "My Blueberry Nights" last time, I didn't think about it for a minute Miss.
I have always liked Johnny Depp. Although I didn't match all his films, I always admired him. Not only is he handsome, but he also really understands acting. The most worthy of praise is that the OST was sung by the original cast of the movie, not Broadway. Stage actors, but they all sing really well. Even Helena Bonham Carter sings really well. And Alan Rickman is also my favorite actor. Almost forgot to mention, Sacha Baron Cohen (Signor) who played "Borat" (2006). Adolfo Pirelli) was also impressive this time around.
I've always been a fan of musicals, and I pay attention to the film adaptations of musicals, but not all. The film version of "Chicago" (2002) is better than the stage version. The film version of "The Producers" (2005)" Disappointing. "Hairspray" is entertaining, but I don't particularly like it. This time, "Sweeney Todd" is not inferior to the stage version, especially with Tim Burton and Johnny Depp, which is basically a guarantee
. It's not complicated, and the plot is smooth. The songs are not too many, just right, all are good. I like the "Johanna" the most. They
say that the movie is bloody and violent, yes, it is a bit, and I have to hide my eyes and avoid it more than once. Some scenes. I believe that children really don’t want to watch it, they will have nightmares. The
actors are all excellent, basically there is nothing to criticize, just pay attention to the bloody scenes.
The story is really sad, it is a tragedy in the world, and it is very touching Of course.
But the movie also has humor, especially Mrs. Lovett played by Helena Bonhan Carter sings the song, the picture is the part where she looks forward to the future with Sweeney Todd, which makes people laugh. After
all, it is a movie not to be missed. Good to see on the big screen.
