A structural and tonal mess

"Two centuries ago, I made Collinwood my home... until a jealous witch cursed me, condemning me to the shadows, for all time."

Dark Shadows is one strange flick. It's Burton-esque in the truest sense, yet it's a far cry from the genius usually associated with this descriptor. The eighth collaboration of director Tim Burton and star Johnny Depp, Dark Shadows is an utter mess; narrati... read more

Visually great but a corny & empty disappointment.

Well, here we are again as the eccentric film director Tim Burton works alongside close friend Johnny Depp for the 8th consecutive time. Yet, we were in for a special treat in 2012 seeing as Dark Shadows is a vampire film and with Burton as director and Depp in the leading role, it could have turned out a dream come true! However, upon the release of the official theatrical trailer, it became almo... read more

I didn't really know what to expect from this flick before watching it. I mean, I have never seen the TV show it is based on and, frankly, even though I have seen every single movie directed by Tim Burton, it has been a while that he did really blow me away. Furthermore, the (terribly misleading) trailer gave me the feeling that it would be a straight comedy reminiscent of 'The Addams Familly' whi... read more

Certainly worth seeing

“I watched it at the cinema because there was Johnny Depp in it and I heard it was scary (I love most horror movies), it was certainly scary and a brilliant horror movie, Tim Burton is a master director, I’ve seen Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Nightmare Before Christmas and Alice In Wonderland, all fantastic family films! This is one fantastic horror movies for high school students and adults, certainly worth seeing

Failed movie franchises part 2 (115 movies items)

" Note: Tim Burton took a classic TV show from the 60's and turn into a big budget movie. I haven't seen the movie yet, but it looks like the movie end up being a failure. The movie didn't made enough as the studio hope for and the reviews for the movie end up being awful. "
