Beetlejuice is one of the finest movies from the '80s, and it's got that classic Tim Burton vibe that we've been missing since Sweeney Todd and Frankenweenie came out; and this movie has all that stylistic and visual goodness that Burton would apply to Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood and Batman Returns. Beetlejuice helped demonstrate Burton's ability to make dark and somber set-ups into funny romps that can still make for some spectacular stuff on the big screen.Beetlejuice is dark fun and great pop-cinema for everyone to enjoy. Watch this classic if you haven't already.
BeetlejuiceThe effort that went behind the production design, costume design and the creativity on details is definitely plausible but it also makes it more painful for the viewers as it fails to seek attention on any page of the script and that's what holds this feature from joining the bigger league. Tim Burton; being infamous for its explicit vision on creating eerie world fails to execute it on screen as anticipated. On performance level, Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis holds on to their parts but the real game changers are Winona Ryder and Michael Keaton. Having said that, Beetlejuice has a crystal clear reasoning and a genuine upbeating soul in the characters that helps audience surviving the feature along with some humor sprinkled around here and there.
This is a great fantasy movie. It has great acting. It also has a great story line. It is a very scary movie. See it. If you like ghost stories you will like this movie. See it. It is one of the scariest movies of all time.
Before Michael Keaton was Batman or Birdman he was the ghost with the most. So is this the best haunted house movie ever? Well if you like the strange and unusual with your spooks than this is for you. One of Tim Burton's best, prior to putting Helena Bonham Carter and Johnny Depp in everyone of his films. Great score and practical effects bring even more to the table. Honestly not sure how this got a PG rating...because it has one of the best F-Bombs ever. Seriously. EVER.
