This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

When a shy groom practices his wedding vows in the inadvertent presence of a deceased young woman, she rises from the grave assuming he has married her. Corpse Bride is directed by Tim Burton and Mike Johnson and stars Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter and Emily Watson. Corpse Bride is a very well written and beautiful looking animation but i was also expecting a little bit more at times and i don't mean that in a bad way it's just that i was expecting a little bit more adventure something like Coco perhaps? Or just something like 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' of course this is still a terrific film but definitely not one of Burton's best films i'm afraid but watchable still. (7,8/10)

Continuing my plan to watch every Johnny Depp movie in order, I come to The Corpse Bride.Depp reteamed with Tim Burton for a fifth time when he agreed to do the voice world alongside Helen Bonham Carter. Both characters look like the actors. It's not the dark horror piece you imagine based on the trailer. Its a sweet and charming movie about lost love. That's not to say it's not without its moments.I always see this as a companion piece to Nightmare Before Christmas, so if you like that, yiu will enjoy thisThe Corpse Bride grossex $53 million at the domestic box office to end 2005 as the 51st highest grossing movie of the year.

Corpse Bride is a combination of comedy, horror and drama in one film. Mystical puppet cartoon was directed and produced by everyone's favorite Tim Burton. The composer is also a well-known Danny Elfman. Helena Bonham Carter and Johnny Depp voiced the main roles.The story is set in the late 1800s in a Victorian village. Victor and Victoria are betrothed. But when things go wrong at the wedding rehearsal, Victor goes into the woods to practice his vows. When he say them correctly, he realize, that the branch on which he have put the ring is a finger of corpse bride - Emily... So, two brides, one groom, what will be next?Cartoon is very mystic: life in afterlife world, the abundance of excellent soundtracks and the piano, runaway hands, indecisive Victor and dreamy Emily, the horrific killing - all of this give a kind of flavor. Animation fully puppet, you will be able to enjoy the work of operators(dolls and the world is very detailed, what you can find only in some cartoons)I thoroughly recommend Corpse Bride. The audience will spend an hour and a half with pleasure, because all of Tim Burton works will not leave anyone indifferent. I think, you like the funny and horrifying atmosphere. Last but not least, I think anyone likes puppies, even if they are dead :)

it is admirable. because it represents a lovely remember of the small things who define the life. because it is a love story who has, in the perspective of Tim Burton, fascinating nuances. a simple story about an insignificant error, its consequences and the new arrangement of life. a pledge for kindness and the thin border between worlds. all in the skin of refined romanticism, gray, cold and seductive. the idea is not exactly new but this represents one of the basic virtues of the film. because, at the first sigh, all seems predictable. but the delicate art to use the expected sides of story is the most important thing. so, a simple story. and a lovely animation , for the songs, characters and humor. and, sure, for the story.
