Frankenweenie

IT’S ALIVE!!! The brand new Tim Burton film Frankenweenie is an exciting, clever and funny comedy, about a boy named Victor who has a very loyal dog called sparky. He loves very much and will even do something no one has ever thought possible to save him. It deserves 4 stars out of 5, It dose not get the 5 stars because it did get a bit predictable towards the end but none the less it was a very enjoyable film. It is a family horror for the younger ones, It isn’t the best Tim Burton film he ever made but it was a good film! There are load of hilarious consequences when victor, just like in the film Frankenstein (except with his dog) bought him back to life! The characters are very funny to the one I like most is a boy called Edgar who has a hunch back and behaves like a very creepy dark person, He has out of shape teeth and greesy black hair! I personaly thought this film was good and bad I especily liked the way Tim bought the old classical films such as gremlins the all time classic from 1994 and Godzilla the first monster movie of its time , and modernized them in a funny way it was an enjoyable good film that is mostly aimed at children! WARNING: Some children who are scared of dark spooky scenes may terifyed of this film!
