Review of Ed Wood (1994) by Tim S — 30 Mar 2012
Most people would say that Ed Wood is Tim Burton's finest film and I would have to agree. This is the filmmaker that I fell in love with running on all cylinders. Martin Landua's performance of Bela Lugosi is a thing of magic (of course, with the help of Rick Baker's fantastic make-up effects).
Besides the fantastic main cast, there's also a variety of low key character actors and various cameos. The story may not be one hundred percent accurate to the true life events, but I don't think it could have been done any other way and been half as entertaining as it is.
It's just a shame that Tim Burton can't seem to make something as creative and ingenious as this anymore. Nevertheless, I still hold it in high esteem.
