Once upon a time, before starring in the failed movie like
lone ranger, dark shadows, mortdecai, etc., Johnny Depp played a character who
until now become the icon for the Tim Burton’s movie, Edward Scissorshands.
A scientist (Vincent Price) made a robot with the human form
named Edward (Johnny Depp). But the scientist died before Edward completed, so
Edward has a hand like a pair of scissors. One day, Peg (Dianne West) found
Edward and took it home. Edward falls in love with Kim (Winona Ryder). However,
the physical condition of Edward became an obstacle for them
Instead of romance, I would prefer to call this movie as a
family drama. For the story, the movie is very nice. Edward is described very
fragile and has a good heart but is often misused by people around him such as
neighbors and Kim’s friends. Many morals can be drawn from this film. Even the
story in this film could be very relevant to daily life.
Johnny Depp always makes an outstanding performance. He is known
for become odd characters such as Jack Sparrow, Willy Wonka, and Edward is the
best character. Edward even with the creepy appearance, he was adorable.
Cinematography in this film is very beautiful. Especially
the most memorable scene, Edward who was cutting the ice and Kim was dancing
underneath while enjoying the beauty of the pieces of ice those are falling.
This film is must watch for fans of Johnny Depp.
