This movie has got to be one of the best movies that I have seen in a long time. Even though I did not get to see it at the theatres I was impressed by the scenes none the less. Sleepy Hollow is loosely based upon the story by Washington Irving, in which Ichabod Crane (Johnny Depp) is out to find the Headless Horseman ( Christopher Walkin), while winning the heart of Katrina (Christina Ricci). This is the only thing that the film and the story have in common.
Despite this minor inconsistancy, the film is a wonderful success. We haven't seen Johnny Depp in such a memorable role since Edward Scissorhands. Christina Ricci look absolutley stunning, have matured more in her film roles since playing Wednesday Addams in the popular Addam's Family movies. But I have one question for all of you reading this....
Did the woman who played Ichabod's mother in the flash backs look like Alanis Morrisette?????? I thought it was her twin!!
This movie is visually stunning and the ever popular controversy of Science vs. Religion figures in well in this film. I did not feel that this movie was rushed at all. All the questions I was asking during the film wrapped up in the end and left me completely statisfied. Tim Burton has done a wonderful job reviving this classic tale for the big screen, this is the best adaptation since Walt Disney's version. I give this instant classic a 9 out of 10....Get out there and see it!!!!!
