A BBC adaptation of the classic tale of the 18th century demon barber of Fleet Street, London, who cuts the throats of his unsuspecting clients in his shop.
I've been putting off watching this movie, but I finally sat down to watch it. Better than I anticipated. I don't see how a musical could be made from it, but I suppose I will check that one out as well some day. 7.5/10
The original story of Sweeney Todd, the barber of Fleet Street was a musical, I'm not sure if it was a Broadway musical, but a musical nonetheless. The movie with Johnny Depp was based on that with the original songs from the real musical featured in the movie!!
I liked this movie, I wonder how they know what really happened cause it was so long ago, but I haven't seen the Johnny Depp Version, I don't even know what it's called.
I prefer Tim Burton's adaptation, but this one certainly shouldn't be missed either.
The absence of music in this version generates a more believable and realistic story. 4/5..it's worth the time.
i loved jonny's performance on his film.. its 2 stories on some same particular movies. This one is a great story with no actors you know but jonny depps story was amazing as hell..
The best version by far, much better then the one with Johnny Depp.
Even though I do like Depp in everything he's in I think this was better because it was more real.
The acting was great and I really found myself rooting for Sweeney Todd, because he wasn't all evil.
I also don't really like musicals anyways, so that my other reason for liking this one more.
I gave it 5 Stars out of 5 just for Ray Winston the actor who played him alone, he's a great actor, he made me feel sorry for him and like him even when I shouldn't have.
Oh AND JOHNNY DEPP IS NOT IN THIS MOVIE AT ALL, unlike what someone here said, someone here is as blind as David Warner is in this movie as the Constable LOL.
Excellent movie, the script and some of the characters are much different than the musical adaptation. Some people say that Johnny is also in this one but he's nowhere on the closing credits or on the BBC page advertising this movie, so I suggest you look again. 4/5.
he may not be sweeny, but he is in fact in this film. good ol' johnny depp! look close enough youll see him. i bought this soon as i found out he was in it. i mean.. i do have ALL the johnny depp movies ever made after all. if you are a johnny depp freak like me, then check out my playlist.. i have all the depp films i could find here in order from newest to oldest. capnluci's just for johnny depp..thanks and enjoy:)
.. version of this Movie hardly came as a surprise in how it turned out. Anyone knowing anything of Time Burtons's pedigree would know this. I'm surprised at those who either did not know this contained musical scores as did Corpes Bride and The Nightmare Before Christmas. To see so many disappointed people finding out Time Burton's version of this was, in fact, musical I find amazing and that refelected people's opinons on a great movie.
That being said:
This is the 'Best of British' as far as screen-play go. Although facts are available that have built up over the years this particular version holds close to what seems to be considered the truth rather than the myth that it is considered to be. Very good acting and comparible to Tim Burton's version within it's own genre that, sadly, a lot of people shy away from or totally mis-judge it's actual technical build.
This was a bit better than the newer one. I REALLY enjoyed it..heck I liked them both..but this one doesn't all the singing and doesn't have the same story line as Johhny Depp's version..And..WOW!! What an ending!!! So not what I was expecting!!!! 10/10!!!
This movie gets you a hint of what must be going on in the mind of a serial killer. I really loved it because it was no all "blood! Mu-ha-ha!", but real persons with problems. Way bigger than expected, but really good character bulding.
