Just Watched Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber OF Flee Street

http://www.iesb.net/images/stories/p...weeneybook.jpg
This film for people, who dont know what I'm on about its a very good film and I like the musical into it. It just somehow fits into the film. I think the ending is quite good and the darkness of the film is quite good. Anyone seen it?

Yes... and I thought it was okay. Not a fan of musicals but Burton made it at least watchable.

Why do you always put "OF" in capitals?

What do you mean by "the musical put into it"?
It IS a musical..
I think Johnny Depp gets the character of Benjamin Barker across very well.

I mean, the music made the film really good I couldnt really see Sweeney Todd just talking, walking, killing it made the film with music really good with the dramatic music when Johnny was angry it went all high and when Miss Lovett was singing it was low, loud.

I felt sorry for Sweeney though :(


Because in the picture it says "OF"

I loved it! I just think the actors/actresses were very good at portraying the story. If they were crap actors and good singers, I don't think I'd have liked it that much!!

I've still got the songs in my head. At first, they were so fast I didn't get them but they have to be there to fit in the story. I think it'd have been a good film, musicial or not though...

I really felt sorry for sweeney he killed his wife, and I think he knew someone was behind him and that he was about to be killed but yeh, miss lovett got burned, he killed his wife, then he got killed, I wonde r what happened to his daughter?

The one sheet title is all in upper case, but the full title remains to have "Of" in standard format.

yeh i watched it not long ago, i wanna know what happened to johanna, i think the singing at some times was terrible lmao, the only person that could sing was anthony, the one who saved her, i thought it was good but the singing sometimes just got too much o.o

I haven't watched it yet, but it looks really good.
Is it really that bad to be an 18 though? I can't find anywhere to watch it on the internet.

I like how in all of your posts in this thread you put spoilers without spoiler tags.

And it is that bad to be an 18

When he kills the bloke in the end bit its so blood thirsty any kid would faint he just slits his neck so you think "Oh its over" but it isn't he just repeatedly stabs the bloke in the neck like 15 times with all this blood just spirting everywhere

Lol, 10/10 Film I going to watch RAMBO in a min. Also blood isnt that bright red, the blood looks to bright to be blood it needs to be darker red.

it was one of my favourite films of last year. i thought id get bored of all the singing in it, but i loved it.

It's bloody, but not that bloody - it would barely attained its 18 certificate.

lmao at VBT-700 thinking that post was rude :rolleyes: He just posted the translated version of his post *double :rolleyes:*

Great acting from all. Great set and costume design, it really brings out the atmosphere and the songs were very good, especially since all of the actors/actresses did their own singing. I own it on DVD, but I think it's best the first time you see it.

Yes but you dont need to do it every singel post.

A very good film, the blood looked kinda weird but I assume it was to help with the set being pretty dark and gloomy all of the time so you could see it better

I did find it annoying how Johnny would sometimes start to sound like Jack Sparrow, he doesn't seem play an English role very well xD

This is on my list of films to see lol :)

I must get round to it i watch to many films tbh

I agree. I'm a very big musical fan, and the music in this is very different to other musicals and I really love this film. I love "Pirelli's Miracle Elixir".
The songs are very catchy.
