Review of Ed Wood (1994) by Scott R — 05 Jun 2014
(76%).
If "the Artist" was a loving nod to the best of silent Hollywood cinema, then this is one to some of the very worst of Hollywood cinema, yet with the same exact sentiment running through. It's a tragic comedic portrait of a man more ambitious than talented, as he becomes through the length of the movie almost impossible to dislike and/or not root for because he tries so hard and really does want to make a good picture. The whole cast is great, particularly Depp and Landau, and Burton movies always look at the very least good and this really is no exception. As drama comedies based around very bad movies go this is likely to be the very best, and comes highly recommended for those interested in the other side of Hollywood history.
