I liked this film, but I have never seen the original series. It's a family drama, romance, comedy, horror, movie. You can't really contain it. Anything with Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Eva Green, AND Jonny Lee Miller has to be pretty good. 9/10

Thank goodness Tim Burton directed Frankenweenie this year or I think I might have lost all respect I have for him. Dark Shadows was one of my most anticipated movies of the past year, being a fan of the original series, and having always wanted to see someone make a big screen adaptation of it, I thought Tim Burton would be the perfect choice. Unfortunately, he forgot to tell a good story, or give us characters that we care about. The TV show it's based on never had the problem, I loved every bit of that show. The only reason to see Dark Shadows is Eva Green. She's delicious in this flick.

Awkward story line. For me, the story didn't seem very smooth or entrapping. Barely finished the movie before I couldn't keep watching. Interesting characters and actors 7/10

It was a good movie but something was a little off, it was funny then it was serious, then back to funny again. I personally feel they should have focused on one or the other a bit more

It was a good movie, but just an OK Tim Burton movie. What I mean by that is I expected more from him, considering the movies he's left in his wake, this is just a shadow of a footnote in his long career. This movie is missing something, what ever it is that would have made it great. I did show however a "could-have-been", an inkling of a cult-classic. Too bad. Maybe next time Mr. Burton.
