I just bought the Sweeney Todd special edition DVD from HMV in their sale for £7!!!!!
Have watched it (I did see and enjoy it in the cinema) and it is fab - Johnny Depp and Helena Bohnam Carter do a fab job of both acting and singing. I was warned by the saleswoman at HMV that it was a musical!! I didnt know when going to the cinema actually, but apparently they've had a few returns from people who just wanted a gory film!!
*************WARNING MOVIE SPOILER AHEAD - DO NOT READ IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE MOVIE AND NOT KNOW WHAT HAPPENS************
I know its gory but I didn't find it terribly scary - all the gore was easy to predict - the nastiest bit IMO was at the end where he dances her into the open oven, but it was predictable from the onset of that scene.
*********************SPOILER OVER**********************
I thought Batman (dark knight) was scarier/nastier and am therefore surprised that DK was a 12a certificate and ST was an 18!!!
Anyone else seen the film and enjoyed it? Or otherwise.
