Other Crap

The Corpse Bride, as reviewed by the man who truly puts the mise in mise en scene, whatever that means, The Filthy Critic

• "There should be a warning label on The Corpse Bride. I mean, if they're gonna warn middle-aged men that sucking too much beer can be hazardous to their unborn babies' health, the government should step in and let folks know that this movie has a shitload of show tunes in it."
• "Another warning maybe should be about the unbearable puns. The goth movie is littered with macabre puns about 'losing heads' and 'cutting someone short' like it's broken glass under the sand at Bolsa Chica State Beach. It seems to me that puns are the sort of thing that nobody enjoys, but a lot of people assume everyone else does. They have the same aura as John Grisham novels: they appear clever without ever being so."
