Review of Corpse Bride (2005) by Facebook U — 10 Oct 2017

Unexpectedly hilarious and wonderfully gloomy. "Corpse Bride" doesn't get the same kind of recognition "Nightmare Before Christmas" does, but it sure as heck should. The vocal performances are excellent, and it's especially impressive how well Victor's character is conveyed through speech when considering how few lines he has compared to stammers and stutters.

The music and visuals pair together to create unique moods, while also remaining catchy and beautiful, with those adjectives applying to their respective media categories. I do wish there was less CGI used in place of stop motion smoke and whatnot, because it was quite distracting whenever it was used.

But, that's a minor complaint in the grand scheme of things. This is an excellent film that I can't wait to see again and again.
