Description

Throughout his life Edward Bloom (Ewan McGregor) has always been a man of big appetites, enormous passions and tall tales. In his later years, portrayed by five-time Best Actor Oscar nominee Albert Finney (Best Actor in a Supporting Role, Erin Brockovich, 2000), he remains a huge mystery to his son, William (Billy Crudup). Now, to get to know the real man, Will begins piecing together a true picture of his father from flashbacks of his amazing adventures in this marvel of a movie.

Amazing!

This is an amazing film. I first saw it with my two children when it first came out and it's the only film that has made me truly misty eyed (normally I sleep through films but this one had me totally engrossed). Such a beautiful film with a touching storyline. I recently bought the film from iTunes ( a rip off I know!) but it was still as moving as when I first saw it. It is in my all time top 10 list and I just find it great. I love the casting and I really enjoyed Albert Finney's performance. More poignantly, it reminds me of my own father and our relationship together. The film is eclectic and mixes romance, mysticism, fantasy and self belief. Tim Burton is a crazy genius!!!!

Best Tom Burton Film

Personally, my favourite Burton film and on my all time top 10 list. Others have aimed it up more eloquently than I can. Magical and moving, the ending gets me every time!

Is it over yet?

Good acting and quite a clever story but it felt like this film was never gonna end. My attention was gone before the end credits.

What beautiful camera work...

Such a satisfactory film to watch, the colour and camera work was perfect, with every scene being easy on the eye.
This story line, well, the multiple story lines into one, was interesting, but kind of odd at the same time.
Still coming around to Ewan McGregor, think he lacks diversity in his acting.
I wouldn't say it was a blockbuster, and you are probably not missing much if you don't watch it… which is why I gave it 3*

Simply Beautiful

Unlike any film I've ever seen. It's funny, sinister, creepy, emotional, random, joyful, magical, beautiful, moving, intelligent and sent shivers down my spine. With a deep and mystical plot that runs side by side with a uncomfortable and dramatic situation.
Edward Bloom, often known for making up outrageous stories that he claims were real life events. But as he nears death, his son, William is determined to find out who he really was and not just any old lie. But every story has inspiration and Edward Blooms' may just be the most inspirational. An elegant and fantastic masterpiece from Tim Burton. His finest ever in my opinion.
This is a fantasy story with hidden messages and dramatic father-son relationships. I REALLY recommend this. It's much better than any blockbuster hit out there right now. Plus, it's on one pound rental! Don't miss the opportunity and don't just be a big fish in a small pond

FABULOUS!

I love Tim Burton and he's done it again! Such a good film, funny, heart-warming, gentle, slighty bizzare at times and well acted. £7 is a bit steep but it's a great buy if it's cheaper. Go buy it somewhere else, haha iTunes are out to rob you with these films.

Great

Rented it yesterday and just watched it. Some people are giving it poor reviews but I think it because it's not one of those deep films that you must put 100% attention into. It's a light hearted easy watch. Quite sad too. Take it for what it is and you'll definatly enjoy it.

I adore this film, what a beautiful story. £6.99 is a bit rich but if you like it you'll watch it again and again so you will get your money worth.
Fab Tim Burton quirkiness but not what you would expect. Way better than Mars Attacks which is, in my opinion, Burton's only lemon!

A fasinating and gentle captivating film.

This is a gentle, thought provoking adventure where, instead of being thrown into the action, you can take a relaxed back seat and spectate. I found it a beautifully enjoyable experiance!

Great movie

This is one crazy movie, I recommend to see to all... At first I didn't want to see it myself cause of strange title and so on... but once I saw it at HBO I loved it...
