BIG FISH is a TIM BURTON FILM!!!

That in essance is all you really need to know. It is wierd as it is brillent. The story of a man who tells stories and a son desperate to know the truth behind the stories and by the end of the film you realise that there is more truth to them then you first imagined. (or maybe BURTON is just trying to tell us that LIFE IS ONE BIG STORY - I dont know.

Wonderfully acted by everyone envolved especially EWAN MCGREGOR who is really turning into one fine actor, JESSICA LANGE and ALBERT FINNEY.
The dvd includes many extras including director's commentary and features on how the film came to be and also how the original novels writer DANIEL WALLACE came up with the book in the first time.

An excellent film and an excellent DVD - if you don't like BURTON you wont like this but if you do dont miss it.

My Rating :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I've been wanting to see this since it was first released but i've never actually gotten round to it :rolleyes:
I love all of Tim Burton's films so i can imagine myself liking this one :)

And Ewan McGregor, a god! I fell in love with him in Moulin Rouge and have since watched all of his previous performances (Shallow Grave :thumbsup:) so the fact that he plays a lead role is all the convincing i need...

In fact, am thinking of going to the video store... :)

I love this film, I dragged a couple of mates to see it at the cinema with me and they loved it too!!! Such a sweet story, full of colour and imagination. Fantastic.
