Beetlejuice
'Beetlejuice', as it is originally called, is a great classic of the 1980s, through which Tim Burton started to imprint his peculiar style and aesthetic, combining the bizarre and the peculiar. Highlight for the maniacal performance of Michael Keaton and for the fact that this is the movie that took Winona Ryder to stardom. An incredible and all-ages mess.
![Edward Scissorhands](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/kjIcXO/thumb/edward-scissorhands_YR9247s.jpeg)
Edward Scissorhands
If there's one Tim Burton character that has become embedded in popular memory, it's Edward Scissorhands. Extremely peculiar, as bizarre as most of the characters created and developed by the filmmaker, Edward is as sensitive as he is strange. A kind of Frankenstein, he was created by a scientist who died before finishing him. This made him distant, alone, lonely -- largely due to his scissor-shaped hands. However, he quickly discovers new abilities that change the course of his life. Magisterial performance by Depp, long-time partner of Tim Burton, who knew how to mix all the strangeness of Edward Scissorhands with the sharp sensitivity of the plot. To be moved.
![Batman Returns](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/RCSfkc/thumb/batman-returns_acdRRzU.jpeg)
Batman Returns
"Batman Returns" delves deep into Tim Burton's melancholic vision of the hero's universe, this time introducing two new villains: Michelle Pfeiffer’s Catwoman (who made an impression with her costume and performance) and Danny DeVito’s Penguin - not to mention the important presence of a third antagonist, played by Christopher Walken. Perhaps the film's biggest problem lies right there: the excess of villains who compete for screen time and Burton's repetition of the Penguin formula, transforming him into a man anguished by his parents' issues. Still, it's an extremely competent movie that manages to capture the audience's attention.
![Big Fish](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/FBBF6T/thumb/big-fish_iZA0IGQ.jpeg)
Big Fish
One of the strongest, most dramatic and emotional films in Tim Burton's filmography, 'Big Fish' is one of those cinematic gems that become even more delicate and precious over time. Here, we follow the story of a man seeing his father on the brink of death, while he remembers fantastic stories that his father told him throughout his life -- all of them, from the younger's perspective, well-crafted fantasies. Gradually, however, Tim Burton injects an unexpected life into the feature film that, despite taking place with a man between life and death, exudes dreams, passion, love and joy. An inspiring movie, with beautiful and memorable scenes. And a warning: get your handkerchief ready because the ending, full of hope, will make you shed tears.
![Ed Wood](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/Z5TEJV/thumb/ed-wood_NQYpP_g.jpeg)
Ed Wood
If there's one movie that's a true ode to grassroots cinema, made on a shoestring budget, it's 'Ed Wood'. Here, Tim Burton delves into the real-life story of the filmmaker who gives his name to the feature - considered by many to be the worst director of all time, with films like 'Plan 9 from Outer Space' and 'Glen or Glenda?' on his resume. It's a delicate and funny, often emotional film, which pays attention to detail in telling Ed Wood's difficult journey to make his movies happen. Although Johnny Depp (‘Pirates of the Caribbean’) is good as the protagonist, it's Martin Landau (‘Crimes and Misdemeanors’) who steals the show as an aging Bela Lugosi. A must-see for movie fans.
![Corpse Bride](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/Jbx4ql/thumb/corpse-bride_iiZKknU.jpeg)
Corpse Bride
One of the most iconic films of Tim Burton's career ('Edward Scissorhands', 'Ed Wood') and directed in partnership with animation specialist Mike Johnson, the feature film 'Corpse Bride' quickly became an icon of the latest pop culture. Just like 'The Nightmare Before Christmas', the movie has a striking stop motion visual and a story as strange as the rest of Burton's filmography: that of a young man who accidentally marries a corpse bride and visits the land of the dead. It is a daring animation, with a good voice work by Johnny Depp ('Pirates of the Caribbean') and Helena Bonham Carter ('Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban'), which works for adults and children. After all, even though it is cute and childish in several moments, its message transcends generations when talking about the limits of life and death. Indispensable.
![Charlie and the Chocolate Factory](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/ajbDrD/thumb/charlie-and-the-chocolate-factory_beskGuQ.jpeg)
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
The filmmaker Tim Burton worked magic here when adapting the classic story of young Charlie -- already told in the 1971 classic with Gene Wilder -- who dreams of getting the golden ticket to gain access to Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. Johnny Depp is unrecognizable as the eccentric owner of the place, in one of the most iconic roles of his career. Special mention also goes to the small Freddie Highmore (from the series 'The Good Doctor'), the central piece of this family mechanism that Burton builds in this adaptation. It's hard not to be enchanted by the scenery, have fun with Wonka and laugh at the Oompa-Loompas. To watch and be moved, as well as salivate at the flood of chocolate.
![Frankenweenie](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/unwQpU/thumb/frankenweenie_Dfta9UU.jpeg)
Frankenweenie
Tim Burton's second foray into stop motion animation during the 21st century - after 'Corpse Bride' - is actually a remake of his 1984 homonymous short film, in turn a homage and parody of the classic 1931 cinematic adaptation of 'Frankenstein'. 'Frankenweenie' is based on a world inspired by Universal Pictures' classic monster movies, with a typical Burton movie storyline poking fun at suburban minds unable to comprehend what seemed macabre. The English-speaking voice cast includes several of the director's frequent collaborators, including Winona Ryder ('Edward Scissorhands'), Catherine O'Hara ('The Nightmare Before Christmas'), Martin Short ('Mars Attacks') and Martin Landau ('Ed Wood'). Nominated for an Oscar, a Golden Globe, a BAFTA and an Annie Award for Best Animated Feature.
![Alice In Wonderland](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/alice-in-wonderland67104.jpeg)
Alice In Wonderland
From Tim Burton's hands, 'Alice In Wonderland' is a visually spectacular return to the world we saw in Disney's classic animated movie, released in 1951. Even though the universe is familiar, the special effects and the director's so particular style result in great scenes. Special mention to Helena Bonham-Carter and Johnny Depp's performances, which bring out the best of the Red Queen and the Mad Hatter.
![Dumbo](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/dumbo18640.jpeg)
Dumbo
Alongside director Tim Burton (of films such as 'Batman' and 'Edward Scissorhands'), Disney has updated one of its great animated classics, released in 1941: 'Dumbo'. In this live-action version, the elephant with huge ears gets almost real features (and loses his speech), in a production that rescues some elements of the original - and mainly brings others, including a greater prominence of the human characters, highlighted by the presence of Colin Farrel, Michael Keaton, Danny DeVito and Eva Green. Burton also brings the darker aesthetic, characteristic of the filmmaker's works - which ended up not pleasing many fans. In addition, elements were missing that would make the 'Dumbo' remake an unforgettable experience as the original feature film was. Still, it is a movie that emotionally touches and entertains the whole family.
![Sleepy Hollow](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/uowqzC/thumb/sleepy-hollow_ukHfUBs.jpeg)
Sleepy Hollow
One of Tim Burton's darkest and macabre films, which is far from what the filmmaker showed in 'Edward Scissorhands' and 'Ed Wood'. Here, he dives into the traditional legend of the headless horseman that haunted the world at the turn of the 18th century to the 19th century. Although Johnny Depp ('Pirates of the Caribbean') exaggerates his performance at times, the visual of the feature film is breathtaking and it is hard not to be completely immersed in this story that mixes mystery, terror, romance and drama, as only Tim Burton knows how to do well. To watch on any night, eating popcorn and having fun.
![Mars Attacks!](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/1dWWvQ/thumb/mars-attacks_hkkAAMg.jpeg)
Mars Attacks!
The filmmaker Tim Burton didn't just talk about a man with scissors in his hands, demonic barbers and millionaires who become night-time vigilantes. He also talked about aliens in the hilarious 'Mars Attacks!', a movie that looks like the 1990s and takes advantage of aliens invading Earth with an extremely particular sense of humor. The bold visual, the outrageous humor and the typical weirdness of Burton at the time help to set the tone of the feature film. It also stands out for its star-studded cast with Jack Nicholson (impeccable as President Dale, in one of the strangest roles of his career), Glenn Close, Christina Applegate, Jack Black, Danny DeVito, Martin Short and Michael J. Fox. But beware: you must be open to exaggeration, without getting too attached to the narrative. It must be seen as the outrageous comedy it is, with all its absurdities and weirdness.
![Batman](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/Mfsv1t/thumb/batman_FGRXCzA.jpeg)
Batman
One of the first comic book superheroes, Batman was not adapted to the big screen until 1989 in a major project led by director Tim Burton (“Beetlejuice”). The screenplay draws inspiration from Batman’s great comic books, such as “The Killing Joke” and “The Dark Knight”, as well as adding elements in common with other Burton-produced feature films - like the stylized visual and a problematic relationship between parents and children, which fits the character like a glove. The protagonist is played by Michael Keaton, previously known for his comedic roles, but who steals the least from the scene is Jack Nicholson’s Joker, who mixes elements of the villain from the 1970s comics with that characteristic gangster air of several characters interpreted by the actor. Through today’s eyes, some elements may seem dated, but ‘Batman’ is still an entertaining superhero movie.
![Planet of the Apes](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/u2Ruzf/thumb/planet-of-the-apes_ulbWOpc.jpeg)
Planet of the Apes
For fans of the 1968 classic Planet of the Apes, disappointed by the declining quality of its four sequels, this Tim Burton-directed remake was a source of much excitement. Eventually, it was also frustration. The film, despite its excellent makeup, production design, visual effects, and a cast with names like Tim Roth, Helena Bonham Carter, and Michael Clarke Duncan, didn't exactly live up to the lofty ideas of its original, and changed several elements of the narrative although he rescued or adapted others that were too iconic (the ending, although different, maintains the same idea). It is, at its best, an interesting interpretation of a classic, through the unique lens of Burton and his penchant for B-movie sci-fi.
Horror
The Exorcism
The Exorcism marks the second film featuring star Russell Crowe in an exorcism role within a year—the other being the fun and carefree The Pope's Exorcist. Here, however, Crowe isn't exactly an exorcist but an actor playing this common type of character in a horror film. Marked by filming delays, interrupted during the pandemic and resumed four years later, the feature attempts to play with the metanarrative of the proposal and how actors relate to their characters, making brief comments on how the stories they portray can seep into the lives of the actors themselves. It is far (very far!) from a perfect film, with a broken rhythm and a glaring lack of depth. However, it can still be entertaining—despite all the parental drama—to watch Russell Crowe once again portray this character battling demons.
![Run Rabbit Run](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/cNiuTK/thumb/run-rabbit-run_ilc7efQ.jpeg)
Run Rabbit Run
Loss and family trauma have been fertile themes in horror in recent years, with films like The Babadook and Relic. Understandably, similar themes can become tiresome, which could be said about Run Rabbit Run. The film follows a fertility doctor (Sarah Snook, Succession), whose seven-year-old daughter (Lily LaTorre) begins to exhibit strange behaviors that mimic those of a deceased family member. The movie builds tension around this mystery, gradually revealing the events that led to the past tragedy. Its lack of novelty is compensated by a genuinely tense and terrifying atmosphere, with strong performances from Snook and debutante Lily LaTorre.
![Arcadian](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/aEYKJG/thumb/arcadian_ampehIk.jpeg)
Arcadian
Arcadian - A thrilling post-apocalyptic horror film, directed by Benjamin Brewer and starring Nicolas Cage. Cage plays a father who, together with his twin sons, struggles to survive in a devastated world, facing sinister creatures that appear at night. With a talented young cast, including Jaeden Martell and Maxwell Jenkins, and shown at SXSW 2024, it promises an intense and visceral experience, marked by impactful images.
![The Forbidden Play](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/lIS0Zt/thumb/the-forbidden-play_iNDnO3o.jpeg)
The Forbidden Play
