Tim Burton and Johnny Depp: two legendary talents team again. The director and star of five remarkable films now add a razor-sharp sixth with this gripping thriller based on Stephens Sondheim's worldwide stage sensation. This tale of a 19th century London Barber with revenge on his mind and a blade in his hande has it all: blood, mystery, romance, wit, exhilarating music and stunning visual design. Co-stars Helena Bonham Carter, Alan Rickman and Sacha Baron Cohen add more menace to the masterpiece as Sweeney's partner and victims in crime. Need a shave? A close shave? Sweeney's waiting.

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street review by JG
Bloody Musical!!
(1) of (1) members found this review helpful.
Tim Burtons 8th film with Johnny Depp is a bloody fest for the eyes and even if you're not too keen on musicals well worth a look.
The story follows Sweeney Todd (Depp) plotting his revenge on Judge Turpin (the superb Alan Rickman), the man responsible for destroying his life.
The film is great at slowly showing Todd as he becomes blinded by revenge - sacrificing a better life without vengence for a souless one with in.
If you prepare yourself for characters bursting into song every five minutes this is a dark, disturbing journey into the mind of a madman and highly recommended!

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street review by Rubber Ducky
Classic

An old story that must surely be a modern classic. Top notch cast and outstanding direction. The story was well told; poignant and moving, yet with moments of dark comedy. Highly recommended.
