Editorial Review: Description: Set in a 19th century European village, this stop-motion, animated feature follows the story of Victor (voiced by JOHNNY DEPP), a young man who is whisked away to the underworld and wed to a mysterious Corpse Bride, while his real bride, Victoria, waits bereft in the land of the living. Though life in the Land of the Dead proves to be a lot more colorful than his strict Victorian upbringing, Victor learns that there is nothing in this world, or the next, that can keep him away from his one true love. DVD Features: Documentaries Featurette Interviews Music Only Track Other Photo gallery Production Notes Amazon.com: Who else but Tim Burton could make Corpse Bride, a necrophiliac's delight that's fun for the whole family? Returning to the richly imaginative realm of stop-motion animation (after previous successes with The Nightmare Before Christmas and James and the Giant Peach), Burton, with codirector Mike Johnson, invites us to visit the dour, ashen, and drearily Victorian mansions of the living, where young Victor Van Dort (voiced by Johnny Depp) is bequeathed to wed the lovely Victoria (Emily Watson). But the wedding rehearsal goes sour and, in the kind of Goth-eerie forest that only exists in Burton-land, Victor suddenly finds himself accidentally married to the Corpse Bride (Helena Bonham Carter), a blue-tinted, half-skeletal beauty (how pleasantly full-bosomed she remains!) with a loquacious maggot installed behind one prone-to-popping eyeball. This being a Burton creation, the underworld of the dead is a lively and colorful place indeed, and Danny Elfman's songs and score make it even livelier, presenting Victor with quite a dilemma: Should he return above-ground to Victoria, or remain devoted to his corpse bride? At a brisk 76 minutes, Burton's graveyard whimsy (loosely based on a 19th century Russian folktale) never wears out its welcome, and the voice casting (which includes Tracey Ullman and Albert Finney) is superbly matched the film's gloriously amusing character design, guaranteed to yield a wealth of gruesome toys and action figures for many Halloweens to come. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Corpse brideI was looking for this movie in our local stores with no luck...It is such a cute movie, and I am thrilled to find it on Amazon for such a great price, and it came to the house much faster than I thought it would. Rating: - entertaining movieCorpse Bride is an entertaining movie. I didn't think it was particularly wonderful, but it was fun to watch and had some neat characters. I didn't find myself falling in love with the movie like I have with other animated tales, but it was still overall a pretty good movie. Rating: - Tim Burton Does it againCorpse Bride is an awesome movie. Tim Burton does it again. True it may not be as good as The Nightmare Before Christmas but it's still a awesome movie. Rating: - Great for young or oldHighly recommended to kids of any age. Burton's imagery and witty dialogue will entertain all, not to mention the music that inspires a spectrum of moods. Rating: - great movieawesome movie. Saw it day 1 when it came out in 2005. and bought it asap on blu ray :) Timeless classic Browse for similar items by category:
