Movie Review by Jessica Film Junkie
March 9th, 2007

Classic Burton

Tim Burton's triumph of stop-motion animaton (forget 'Corpse Bride') is this lovely musical celebrating the darkness in Christmas and the lightness in Halloween.
Either you love Burton's gothed out aesthetic or you don't. If you do, this is as creepy as anything he has done, but it also has singing.
Personally, I think it is a classic that still resonates for kids of all ages, without being preachy like so many 'family' movies.
Just dark enough.
