This movie has very famous actors: Johnny Depp as Sweeney Todd, Helena Bonham Carter as Nellie Lovett and Alan Rickman as judge Turpin.
This movie is based on a legend of serial killer named Sweeney Todd. Movie takes place at the 19th centurys London.
The plot shortly: Sweeney Todd returns in to London, after 15 years, to revenge judge Turpin’s terrible plan. Turpin had falsely charged and banished this barber from London, to get his wife, Lucy. Sweeney Todd settled down to his old barber shop, right up the meatpie bakery. He heard about his wife, who had poisoned herself and about the child his wife got. He ends up killing his own wife and meatpie baker Nellia Lovett, who told Lucy was dead.
This is a great movie, because Tim Burton is my favourite director and Johnny Depp my favourite actor. I like the idea of the film, because I love horror and musicals. The soundtrack of the film is very different in every part of it. Johnny Depp is shining in his role, and Helena Bonham Carter is crazy woman as always. They play well together.
